You won’t find this magic combination again.
One of only a handful of grand old homes in Mt Hawthorn, this property is set on an exceptionally quiet, private and leafy 751sqm block and combines the feel of a country retreat, complete with pool and studio, with true apartment level walkability.
Living at this property is like owning a private door between 2 worlds, no amount of buzz in the area disturbs the peace and quiet. Curl up under a tree with a coffee and a book, relax by the pool, enjoy quiet family time at home and feel like you are a world apart.
However as soon as you step outside the gates you are right in the middle of everything. So if the mood takes you, pop out to shop for gelato, coffee or food, or just to join in the vibe and fun of area and its community, or one of the many local markets and fairs. It’s always your choice.
You have plenty of room at home, but if the kids need more space there is a neighbourhood park on the street, and it is only a leisurely walk to the Mezz playground or along the coffee strip to the Braithwaite Park nature playground. Lake Monger and Menzies Park are just a short ride away.
Everything you could possibly need is within a few minutes walk. However if you want to venture further you are less than 2 minutes from fantastic public transport, bike paths to the City and the coast, and freeway entrances.
This property offers a rare and unrivalled lifestyle. It also offers the even rarer opportunity to enjoy that lifestyle today, safe in the knowledge that you have secured a large land holding in an amazing location - with all of the potential and possibilities that might offer in the future.
