An east-facing porch and roses behind a picket fence offer a classic welcome to this tranquil home that capitalises on original features while sensitively combining them with modern interventions. High ceilings evoke a sense of openness, leadlight windows scatter prisms of light, and decorative ceiling roses and cornices nod to the past, their deco styling weaving history throughout the home. Timber floorboards across much of the plan bring warmth and polish, and a limited colour palette and split system air conditioning introduce a modern sensibility to create contemporary yet timeless interiors.
What was once a traditional verandah at the rear of the home has been transformed. Now enclosed, it houses a second bedroom, a compact sitting or playroom, and a combined family bathroom and laundry. This clever reimagining of space adds function and flexibility to the home's layout. Adjoining this area is an enclosed porch or mudroom with direct access to a patio and a backyard laid mostly to lawn. Rendered walls give the garden a secluded, courtyard-like atmosphere, perfect for quiet relaxation or outdoor entertaining. The partitioned garage offers further versatility, with the potential for a teens' retreat or studio at the rear and a workshop at the front.
This utterly charming home brims with soul and continues to captivate with its enviable location, just 300 metres from Max Hunt Reserve and the tranquil pathways that trace the banks of the Swan River.
