SO MUCH ON OFFER – BEST VALUE IN CLAREMONT!
This delightful family home situated right atop Claremont Hill may fool you with its quaint cottage street-front, but step inside and be amazed at how much it has to offer – with spacious accommodation and extensive outdoor entertaining, this is truly a must to inspect.
Ideally located on a generous 566sqm block, the Heritage Listing has been lifted from this property (currently zoned R40), allowing future flexibility – could this be the dream home you have been looking for?
From the striking original leadlight front door through to the Tuscan-inspired entertaining area with swimming pool, this unique home will both charm and impress. The beautiful turn of the century features in the original cottage (circa 1908) have been lovingly maintained, while a spacious extension at the rear offers the modern conveniences and comfort ideal for families and entertainers alike.
The Master Chef of the family will love the stunning country-style kitchen with casual dining and servery windows to the outdoor alfresco area. Accommodation consists of four large bedrooms, three bathrooms, spacious lounge plus formal dining or family room. The master bedroom is situated at the front of the home, with walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, while the family bathroom has a large corner spa-bath with shower overhead.
The cathedral ceiling at the rear of the property has been cleverly converted to include a mezzanine study or home office, with the lower level offering a well-designed compact laundry and third bathroom (with access from the swimming pool) plus stairs down to a large cellar or storage space.
Spend summer nights entertaining friends or family, soaking up the resort-like atmosphere of the alfresco area with built-in bar and room for a pool table, or just kick back by the pool and let the palm trees and gentle sound of the water feature relax you.
Superbly located on the prestigious Claremont Hill, with MLC, Christ Church, Scotch College, Claremont Quarter, Swanbourne Village and public transport all within easy walking distance. Wave the kids off from the patio and make the most of no more hectic school runs – why not wander over to the Bookcaffe or the Dancing Goat for breakfast instead? Or catch up with friends for a coffee in Claremont… even the beach is just a short drive away. The options are endless.
