What we love
Filled with intimate charm, this delightful 2 bedroom (plus study), 1 bathroom street-front residence is pleasantly protected by shade from its leafy established gardens and will impress you with original features throughout. High ceilings and solid wooden floorboards are commonplace here, whilst a secluded entry door can be found down the side of the property. There are also two other access points into the home – one from the rear and the other via a splendid northwest-facing entertaining courtyard that is paved and can be reached through a gate from your private front garden.
Inside, a large front lounge room welcomes you and has a gas bayonet for heating, direct courtyard access and sits next to a lovely dining room with cooling air-conditioning, a striking leadlight skylight feature and a gorgeous aspect out to the flourishing front garden. A sliding door reveals the sleeping quarters and kitchen – plus a central study that can easily be enclosed and converted into a third bedroom, adjacent to a spacious second bedroom with full-height and width built-in wardrobes and external access out to the back terrace. The light and bright kitchen has its own terrace access, a breakfast bar for quick bites, tiled splashbacks, single and double-door storage pantries, a gas cooktop, separate oven, a Bosch dishwasher and more. What a gem of a property this one is.
What to know
The king-sized master looks out to the front garden as well, whilst boasting mirrored built-in robes.

Extras include a double linen press, a side drying courtyard with a tool shed, stylish light fittings, wooden feature skirting boards, security doors, a gas hot-water system, a side-access gate, and a pitched double carport.
A plethora of lush local parks and fantastic children’s playgrounds can be found nearby – including picturesque Lake Gwelup Reserve, whilst the amazing new-look Karrinyup Shopping Centre, Karrinyup Primary School, Karrinyup Library, bus stops, restaurants, Our Lady of Good Counsel School and even the prestigious Lake Karrinyup Country Club are all only walking distance away. You will also fully appreciate the very close proximity to other top schools – St Mary’s, Hale and Newman College included, the freeway, Stirling Train Station, Hamersley Public Golf Course and glorious swimming beaches, stretching from new-look Scarborough, to Trigg Point and all the way up to Hillarys Boat Harbour. If tranquillity and convenience are what you seek, then this is a place you will want to call home.
