Be prepared to fall head over heels in love! Situated at the sought after cul de sac end of glorious Rupert St, one of the loveliest streets in Subiaco; a magnificent, beautifully renovated and extended 1920's character residence perfectly placed to indulge in everything this coveted locale has to offer.
Set behind a quintessential picket fence and elevated above the street, 38 Rupert St is distinguished by its symmetrical, triple gabled facade, tall chimneys, transom windows, grand tessellated tile verandah with turned timber posts, decorative timber fretwork and exquisite timber and stained-glass entrance.
Interiors are equally captivating with soaring ceilings, gleaming jarrah floors, ornate ceiling roses, double cornices, hallway arches, tall skirtings and original fireplaces resting easily alongside more modern, light filled open plan spaces and upper floor extension.
With multiple living areas, 3 generous bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, powder room, spacious kitchen and expansive outdoor entertaining, there's plenty of room for everyone. Generously proportioned rooms and a flexible layout offer superb functionality and well considered separation of space. In the original home, rooms open from a long, wide central hallway - a gorgeously bright and airy primary bedroom with walk in robe and dual access en-suite, second supersized bedroom or home office and a lovely, sunny living room opening to the alfresco area.
The second archway marks the home's transition from old to new. Expansive, sundrenched, sympathetically extended open plan family spaces feature high ceilings, double cornices and a large, ornate ceiling rose. The well appointed, country inspired kitchen features black granite counters and ivory cabinetry, wall oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher and a large pantry. Family living and dining areas are generous, with a wall of tall windows and 3 sets of French doors framing gloriously private, high walled, northern aspect outdoor spaces. Head outside to entertain friends and family in style under the vergola or just relax and enjoy the fabulous solar heated pool.
A beautiful jarrah staircase leads to the upper floor with accommodation cleverly designed to give kids a space of their own. Tucked into the eaves are two large bedrooms with balcony access, a bathroom and large room.
There's a practical laundry and separate drying courtyard, and secure double garage with workshop area/storage accessed from Salisbury St.
