Perched proudly on an elevated block in the heart of Kensington, this 1930s Art Deco residence feels less like a house and more like a beautifully preserved story, waiting to be continued.
Behind its character façade, original details remain intact: decorative ceilings, ornate architraves, Jarrah floorboards, and stunning leadlight windows that speak softly of another era. Lovingly maintained, beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated over time, it offers the best of both worlds - timeless character and charm, paired with the comfort and convenience of modern living.
Now approaching its centenary, this much loved home has lived many lives, and is ready for its next chapter and its next custodian.
