Overview

Stories Etched in Every Wall!

This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers a unique blend of character and modern comfort, providing a serene sanctuary that combines timeless features with thoughtful contemporary upgrades. The property exudes a warm and inviting atmosphere reminiscent of a bygone era, yet it has been carefully updated to meet the needs of today's busy family lifestyle.

The securely gated front yard features a sunken paved courtyard and a lawn area, all overlooked by a spacious entry verandah equipped with a shade blind to control morning sunlight. The backyard is a peaceful, shaded retreat framed by mature trees, offering ample space for a future swimming pool and plenty of grassy areas for children and pets to enjoy. The garden is enhanced by a variety of fruit trees, including a mandarin tree adjacent to the paved courtyard, and a well-designed alfresco entertaining deck with shade blinds for protection from the elements.

Inside, the home boasts high ceilings and polished Jarrah timber floors in the front section, creating an elegant and airy ambiance. The master suite is a standout feature, complete with a walk-in wardrobe, decorative ceiling rose, and a newly renovated ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in rain and hose shower, dual marble vanities, a Herringbone-tile feature wall, and a toilet. The second bedroom is generously sized and located near custom hallway shelving, while the third bedroom includes built-in double-door robes. The main family bathroom has been fully updated with a relaxing bathtub, rain and hose showerheads, a marble vanity, toilet, Herringbone tiling accents, and a skylight that fills the space with natural light.

Additional storage is provided by a double linen press opposite a bright formal lounge room, which could also serve as a fourth bedroom. This room features double sliding doors, new linen curtains, an open wood fireplace, a decorative leadlight window, and pleasant north and east-facing views.

The heart of the home is a large sunken open-plan family, dining, and kitchen area, separated by double French doors for privacy and quiet. This space is adorned with natural stone floor tiles, stylish pendant lighting, a gas bayonet, a new split-system air conditioner, French windows, and original Jarrah windowsills and frames. Double French doors provide access to the alfresco deck and backyard.

The kitchen has been exquisitely modernized with double farmhouse-style sinks, subway tile splashbacks, a breakfast bar, a microwave recess, a double-door pantry, extensive storage, a stainless-steel Westinghouse dishwasher, and high-quality 900mm-wide stainless-steel range hood and Smeg six-burner gas cooktop and oven appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious, newly renovated laundry featuring a stone benchtop, walk-in linen and broom cupboard, full-height double linen press, under-bench storage, internal hanging space, a clothing hamper, and a separate powder room with a marble vanity, all with direct access to the courtyard for drying.

Parking includes a double carport at the front with ample storage underneath, and rear access via Sorensen Lane to a remote-controlled single lock-up garage with air conditioning, extra width, storage space, and potential for conversion into a workshop, home office, or recreational space.

The location offers exceptional convenience, situated close to top school catchments including Wembley Primary School and Bob Hawke College, public transport, freeway access, shopping, cafes, and restaurants on Cambridge Street, scenic walks around Herdsman Lake and Lake Monger, Wembley Golf Course, and excellent community sporting facilities.
