You won't find a more quintessentially Australian place to live than this tightly-held Floreat neighbourhood. Brimming with families, this is a low-traffic enclave where the front yards boast trampolines and tree-houses and the neighbours share a wonderful sense of community.
Primely positioned on an elevated corner block, this character-filled 1930's home was one of the first in Floreat and continues to radiate warmth and charm from its gorgeous art deco facade, well established gardens and delightful interiors.
Enter this home through lush, established gardens, including a stunning liquid amber tree which offers cooling shade in summer and an ever-changing colour palette as the seasons change.
Continuing inside, the home displays all the charm of its era, including soaring 3 metre decorative ceilings, high skirtings, picture rails, timber sash windows and original polished jarrah floor boards. Awash with natural light, this home offers a great layout - a welcoming entry, expansive living area, functional open plan kitchen/dining space and a large multi-purpose area, providing a superb space for a home office or childrens' play room.
The master bedroom boasts a conjoining space, offering the rare opportunity to establish an adjacent nursery or extended retreat. Equally, this room could be converted to a large walk in robe and ensuite bathroom. Two more minor bedrooms are generous in size, while the main family bathroom (complete with bath, shower, and vanity), is complemented by a secondary bathroom (shared with the laundry) guaranteeing adequate amenities for the whole household.
An added bonus is the large underground cellar, offering a stable temperature for hundreds of bottles, plus additional storage space for bikes, camping gear and all the accumulated possessions of family life!
Well-established trees adorn the property, including lemon, avocado, orange and grapefruit and there is loads of space to grow your own veggies and herbs.
Best of all, the location puts you just five minutes from City Beach, 10 minutes from the CBD and around the corner from Floreat Forum Shopping Centre. Boasting a family friendly location that is second to none, this character home presents a golden opportunity. Just a short stroll from Winmarley Park, and in the catchment for Floreat Park Primary School, you will need to act quickly to register your interest.
