Set on more than a quarter-acre of land and packed with street appeal, this circa 1930 home is simply stunning. With its seriously wide frontage and beautiful front garden, complete with horseshoe driveway, it is certainly a standout property in the area.
The home has been fastidiously renovated to give a luxurious feel, whilst the retention of magnificent period features, which include pressed tin ceilings, lead light windows, fireplaces and jarrah bay window seats, ensure that the home remains warm and inviting. A new, custom- built solid jarrah kitchen with stone bench tops and built-in double fridge-freezer is a telltale sign that this renovation has been taken seriously, and with no expense spared. The quality finish is repeated in the bathrooms, evident with the high spec fittings and immaculate tiling.
Accommodation in the home is generous and versatile. The large open-plan kitchen, dining and living area makes both family time and entertaining easy, and a separate formal dining area with working period fireplace is perfect for more formal occasions. There is an additional large living room that could double-up as a fourth bedroom if required, as well as an undercroft utility room that boasts plenty of possible uses from cellar to games room, or just some always-useful extra storage space.
The back garden is huge, and its beautiful lawn is overlooked by the wide, totally
refurbished back verandah the perfect setting for a cool drink whilst enjoying the space. With all this room, there are plenty of options for additions if desired; including scope for a second level that would capture some very pretty views towards the river.
Whilst there is plenty of off-street parking on the driveway, which has the convenience of a double crossover to aid access, there is also a double garage and space on the north side of the house for a small boat or trailer.
Set in the river precinct of Bicton, these large character homes on full blocks are a rare and sought after commodity, and are a pleasure to own.
