Cherished over the years and filled with character, everything about this home reflects its forever feel: gorgeous gardens and birdsong wrapping the exterior, thoughtful updates woven throughout, and a sense of quiet seclusion behind its walls. This Valley location makes it even better: nestled in a close-knit community where you can wave the kids off to school from your door, stroll to popular parks and cafes, or head to Freo’s town centre in minutes.
Beyond its weatherboard facade, two pathways welcome you in – one a timber walkway down the side, the other via the front garden of lawn, citrus, pomegranate, olive and more – and through the sunrise veranda. Inside is simply picture-perfect: original jarrah floors, light-filled interiors, French doors and matching casement windows, all framing green outlooks.
The front lounge features a decorative fireplace with two bedrooms nearby: one with split-system air and a ceiling fan, the other with a ceiling fan and built-in robes, both sharing a darling bathroom in pressed tin and polished concrete, complete with a shower/bath, toilet, concealed Euro laundry and exterior access.
Stepping below, a raked panelled ceiling, split-system air and a ceiling fan line the master suite, with its own rainshower ensuite, walk-in robe, and built-in robe. Pretty French doors add to its charm, opening onto a serene alfresco setting draped in climbing jasmine.
Beyond the dining and into the kitchen, abundant natural light pours through multi-paned windows, with outlooks of even more climbing jasmine. There’s a freestanding gas cooker, a dishwasher, filtered water and an island bench for meal prep – before it all flows down to the sunken second living area in cool polished concrete.
Split-system air and a ceiling fan enhance your comfort, while the vaulted ceiling slopes towards a set of French doors spilling outside to the private alfresco space. Tree-lined – including hibiscus, a lemon and bay tree – with colourful natives at its edges, there’s also a drying court, or sunny reading nook, tucked down the side, while out front, the original garage has been converted into a multi-purpose zone: gym, workshop, retreat or secure parking for one car.
This is one of those Valley homes that feels the part – 1950s character beautifully renewed in tranquil garden surrounds, and the end result is splendid.
