Positioned proudly on the sought-after south side of Bondi Street, this elevated and utterly unique residence commands sweeping views over Mount Hawthorn to the south and west, capturing treetop vistas and city views. Set on a generous 491 sqm lot, this is a home with presence, history and a story spanning generations.
Originally built in 1939 as a charming two-bedroom cottage with a skillion sleep-out and wet area, the home has evolved beautifully over time. Loved and nurtured by the current owners for 36 years, the home has been meticulously maintained, thoughtfully extended and carefully enhanced, while keeping its character charm.
From the moment you arrive, the beautifully manicured gardens frame the home in greenery, offering a warm and inviting first impression. Step inside and you are immediately greeted by soaring high ornate ceilings, rich jarrah floorboards underfoot, and a sense of space that belies the home's original cottage beginnings.
At the front, an elegant living room centred around a fireplace provides a cosy retreat. This intimate space flows through to the spacious kitchen, where ample cabinetry, generous bench space and quality appliances make it as practical as it is welcoming.
The property features three spacious bedrooms, including a main bedroom with a huge walk-in robe, while a well-appointed bathroom and separate toilet service all rooms, offering convenience and comfort for family living. Upstairs, a light-filled living area, bedroom or study creates a peaceful retreat, where large windows frame leafy treetop vistas and distant city views. A substantial storage room and study on this level adds further convenience.
Descending to the lower level, you'll discover a third expansive living zone, where large glass windows lead seamlessly to a covered alfresco area. This indoor-outdoor connection makes entertaining effortless, whether hosting summer gatherings or enjoying quiet mornings overlooking the garden.
The backyard is nothing short of a private sanctuary. Lush lawn provides space for children and pets to play, while established fruit trees, lemon, fig, guava and passionfruit, offer seasonal abundance. Reticulation ensures easy maintenance, and at the rear of the garden sits a spacious powered workshop.
Modern upgrades ensure the home is as functional as it is charming. A 6.6kW battery-ready rooftop PV solar system delivers energy efficiency and long-term sustainability, while an FTTP NBN connection with a wired gigabit ethernet LAN system provides exceptional connectivity for working from home, streaming or study.
A rare offering in one of Mount Hawthorn's most tightly held and elevated pockets, this timeless residence blends 1930s character, thoughtful extensions, panoramic outlooks and contemporary convenience. It is a home that has been deeply loved, carefully grown and beautifully preserved, now ready to begin its next chapter.
Perfectly positioned in the heart of Mount Hawthorn, this home is just moments from boutique shops, trendy cafes and scenic parklands. Families will appreciate being within the catchment zones of the esteemed Bob Hawke College and Mount Hawthorn Primary School.
