Sitting pretty on a corner block behind a quintessential white picket fence, "Polkberry House" invokes sense of history and the true essence of family living in Bicton.
Constructed in 1903 and regarded as Bicton's oldest home, this atmospheric homestead was built on the site of Western Australia's first commercial vineyard with small farms scattered around the developing landscape.
While the neighbourhood may have changed, the rich history and undeniable character of this adored local landmark remain preserved.
Maintaining all of its original charm and period features with proudly well-tendered gardens, the home has benefited from ongoing updates and extensions to the original floorplan.
