Magnificent Federation Gem

The wait is over! This beautifully renovated home, Keer-Weer, represents the charm of a bygone era. For those wanting the character and qualities of a timeless home and within a short walking distance to the best of Cottesloe, then this is your dream home.

Boasting five spacious bedrooms and three bathrooms, this stunning property seamlessly blends yesteryear charm with modern convenience. As you pass through the gable entry and walk the path past the 100-year old palms, you feel in the presence of something special. The original cavity-brick home built circa 1915 includes a newly tuck-pointed exterior with bullnose roof shading a large alfresco (Jarrah) deck. As you enter the home, you are immediately struck by the stunning main door featuring original leadlight panes and wide hallway connecting each of the rooms of the original property. This part of the house features large, leadlight windows, 10-foot ornate ceilings, original fireplaces, French doors and Jarrah boards. They simply don't build homes like this anymore.

The home sits on a generous 675sqm corner block with dual access from Napier Street, providing you with ample light, space, privacy and additional parking.

The large, fenced front lawn is complimented by established native gardens and new lighting of the palm trees that creates a spectacular evening feature. You are then drawn to the spacious verandah to relax and watch the world pass you by. Here you can easily imagine taking in a book whilst catching the morning sun or enjoying an evening drink in the ocean breeze on those balmy summer nights. Brimming with colour and native birds, this front space offers the perfect entertainment area or retreat for parents, kids and pets alike.

Step inside to discover more old-world charm, with leadlight panes, original floorboards and high ceilings with cornice, light roses and wall picture rails adding period character to the home. The living room and main bedroom at the front of the house each feature original fireplaces and large windows that allow natural light and garden colours to flood in, creating a warm ambience. From the central hallway, you will also find a second bedroom, large bathroom (with full bath) and separate dining room with large fireplace and double French doors that open on to the side path and lavish greenery.

The kitchen will certainly impress, featuring new Bosch cooking appliances, black granite benchtops, turquoise-coloured mosaic tiled splashbacks, a Miele dishwasher and extensive cabinetry with pull-out pantry. The kitchen overlooks the large family area, which boasts a raked ceiling, atrium-style feature windows capturing northern light with a tranquil side garden outlook, and French doors leading outside. Off this area is the third ground-floor bedroom featuring large window and new wool carpet.

Moving upstairs, you'll find a renovated bathroom and brand new carpets in the two bedrooms and large landing area (loft). The loft is perfect for work, study or relaxation and features a raked ceiling with new window tinting. Each of the bedrooms has new split system air conditioning, providing you with the perfect temperature control for a good night's sleep.

The rear yard features a wide alfresco area with limestone paving, new lawn, outside shower (after those beach swims), a large single garage with space for storage, and a sunny south-west corner with new veggie / herb garden. New garden beds on the northern and southern sides feature native palms and ferns, creating naturally cool, green spaces.

This property is not just a stunning home; it's a lifestyle choice. Located in the heart of Cottesloe, it's central to everything you love about this suburb. Stroll to Perth's best beaches, Marine Parade, Cottesloe Station, Cottesloe Cycle Path, North Cottesloe Primary School, Cottesloe Tennis Club, Cottesloe Civic Centre, Napoleon Street shops and cafes and Cottesloe Central Shopping Centre.

It's an idyllic property and location to raise a family or simply relax and enjoy the splendours of Cottesloe in an immaculate home from yesteryear - an opportunity you won't want to miss. Contact Deborah Brady of Ray White Cottesloe-Mosman Park to secure your viewing, on 0405 570 903.

Cottesloe is a suburb revered for its relaxed beach-side lifestyle. Close to the city, yet still far enough away to not be exposed to its hyper-urban nature,
Cottesloe is an ideal location for those who want the best of both worlds. Its land area spans four square kilometres and is characterised by a blend of historical and modern residences.  With the beach at your door step and the city centres of Perth and Fremantle a short drive away, Cottesloe's enviable lifestyle is what makes it such a desirable location. The world-renowned Cottesloe Beach stretches for 1.5 kilometres and draws a crowd from all over the state, country and world. Also in the suburb is The Cottesloe Beach Hotel, which has been a landmark destination of Cottesloe for more than a hundred years. Cottesloe Railway Station, Cottesloe Shopping Centre and Grove Plaza are other notable fixtures of the area, as are the two local primary schools and local high school.
