Beautifully renovated and extended by local architect Andrew Stevens in 2020 this is a quintessential Australian family home with a superbly modern twist that makes it wonderfully comfortable and has the added attraction of being just a short stroll from iconic North Cottesloe Beach.

As soon as you enter this gorgeous home you will notice the stunning high ceilings and hallway which automatically give you the feeling of space. Comprising of 4/5 huge bedrooms, two bathrooms plus a powder room with loads of yard for the kids to play as well as a 3 car garage and a bonus of laneway access from behind.

From the front door, there's an extra-wide central hallway that shows the patina of the original jarrah floorboards to excellent effect all the way through the home to the rear undercover alfresco area. Off the hall is the master suite at the front of the home - a spacious room with high ceilings that flows seamlessly onto the ensuite with its on-trend neutral colour palette and theme through to the huge walk-in dressing room lined completely with storage and still loads of room for a study desk.

The guest room is on the ground floor too - a big, inviting room which could also be used as a home office or second TV room downstairs. There's a fabulous under stairs wine cellar lined with black timber, powder room and brilliantly designed laundry with three Leifheit internal clothes lines and underfloor heating to make drying clothes in winter an absolute breeze.

The back of the home is where you will find a magnificent open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining space that is the very heart of this gorgeous house. The kitchen features the same deep moody grey that is the colour theme of this home, with a giant caesarstone topped island bench housing an abundance of cupboard space. There's an office nook and a butler's pantry with loads of storage space as well as a second sink and dishwasher.

The lounge is big and sprawling and uber comfortable with a Jotel fireplace reinforcing that warm classic Australian home feel. A span of sliding doors opens to the alfresco area and yard, merging indoor and outdoor living spaces seamlessly. The oversized alfresco is enormous and is ideal for entertaining with a built in Beefeater barbeque, sink, fridge and plenty of storage space as well as fans and electric blinds that come down on all sides to enclose the space so it can be enjoyed all year round. A wide side path joins front yard to back yard and is the perfect place for the outdoor shower - great for sandy bodies just back from the beach nearby.

Upstairs are the remaining three bedrooms - large carpeted rooms with high ceilings, fans and flooded with natural light. The bathroom is at the end of the hall and is cleverly designed where the double vanity area can be closed off from the main bathroom section and toilet.
