Positioned on one of Leederville's most tightly held and picturesque streets, 62 Richmond Street is a masterfully reimagined circa 1910 residence where timeless character meets cutting-edge sustainability. Extensively renovated and architecturally extended in 2017, this remarkable four-bedroom, two-bathroom home delivers an exceptional blend of heritage charm, modern innovation and family flexibility, all set on 453sqm with rear right-of-way access and secure double parking.
Behind the classic wide bullnose veranda, soaring ceilings, ornate fireplaces and original jarrah floors honour the home's early 1900s origins, while the striking vaulted extension introduces burnished concrete floors, highlight windows and seamless indoor-outdoor integration. The state of the art kitchen forms the heart of the home, anchored by an oversized Caesarstone concrete island, premium Siemens appliances, a concealed office nook and a generous butler's pantry with extensive storage. Triple-glazed doors open to a Victorian Ash-lined alfresco complete with built in BBQ, fridge and sink, all overlooking the stunning solar heated magnesium concrete swimming pool and expansive entertaining zone.
The accommodation is both generous and adaptable, offering four bedrooms with the option of a fifth bedroom or additional living space to suit growing families or those working from home. The master suite is beautifully appointed with a walk in robe and designer ensuite featuring statement tiling and a triple glazed skylight. A luxurious family bathroom showcases cement tiles, a freestanding soaker bath and a concrete vanity, reinforcing the home's thoughtful attention to detail.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this home has been comprehensively upgraded at a structural and performance level. The entire roof was replaced, chimneys reconstructed, subfloor removed and rebuilt, stumps replaced and limestone footings reinforced with concrete. Imported Finnish triple-glazed windows deliver outstanding thermal performance, while the solar passive design of the extension achieves a 9.4 star energy rating. A full solar panel system, gas hydronic boiler heating, ducted reverse cycle air conditioning, whole house water filtration and reverse osmosis drinking water system further enhance comfort and efficiency.
Additional features include a self contained studio above the garage completed in 2023, an incredible underground cellar with garage access, a large insulated attic storage space, fully reticulated gardens, raised vegetable beds, security system with CCTV and intercom entry to the fully fenced front yard.
Beautifully positioned within walking distance to parks, cafés, restaurants, shops, public transport and the vibrant Oxford Street precinct, and within the catchment for West Leederville Primary School and Bob Hawke College, this is a rare opportunity to secure a home of architectural integrity, sustainability and lifestyle excellence in one of Perth's most sought-after inner-city locations.
