It is a rare occasion that such a charming and unique property, complete with all the trimmings, becomes available to purchase. In fact it has been more than 30 years since this grand old home was last on the market and I suspect the next owners will enjoy it for several more decades to come.
Originally built in 1927, the federation home retains its old world charm and features. Extensions and additions over the years have provided ample room for a growing family, boasting multiple living spaces, large proportions and a focus to the north for maximum natural light. A great attention to detail has ensured these improvements have maintained excellent flow and sympathetic to the style of the original homestead.
The home, constructed predominantly of brick, timber and glass, gives a wonderful sense of openness and light, while somehow remaining sheltered behind the well established trees and gardens surrounding it - like a 'Tree House'. Located along the borders of Peppermint Grove and Cottesloe, one of Claremont's most sought after precincts, this is an opportunity not to be missed!
