UNDER OFFER BY STEFANIE DOBRO – WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS
Nestled along a character-laden streetscape lined with majestic old trees, this is a forever family home of the highest standard. From the picture-perfect white weatherboard and limestone façade to the flourishing native gardens and wraparound veranda, entwined with heritage rose vines climbing towards the sky – it’s serene and beautiful, with every modern comfort included. Crafted 13 years ago by master builder Robert Holl and John Chisholm Design, it feels timeless yet perfectly at place in this fabulous location – surrounded by parks, central Freo and bustling George Street a stroll away.
The entrance is magnificent. Grand wrought-iron and glass double doors reveal the airy elegance of white-walled spaces against the natural textures of travertine, blackbutt timber and light. Three bedrooms span the entranceway – one an ideal study, and two with built-in robes – each sharing a guest powder room and luxe bathroom finished in travertine: rainshower, dual vanity and deep-soak bath. Nearby is another bedroom, alongside the glossy-white laundry with full-height storage and exterior access, while opposite, sunlight filters through a large stained-glass window above the stairs.
Upstairs, a resplendent retreat awaits – elevated, restful and completely private. The master features walk-through robes and a gorgeous ensuite with twin rainshowers, freestanding egg bath, dual vanity with bespoke travertine detailing, and a separate toilet doubling as a guest powder room. Northern light floods the living area, complete with kitchenette, with French doors extending to a sheltered north-facing balcony perched above the pretty streetscape below. There’s also clever storage concealed within the roof.
The heart of the home is simply beautiful. A series of French doors invite the breezes in, with a cosy woodfire place for winter. The airy interiors unfold to vast open-plan living and dining by the bright white kitchen with all the trimmings: 900mm ILVE oven with gas stovetop, ASKO dishwasher, walk-through pantry, travertine splashbacks, and Essastone topped benches, including a large central island.
Outside, a sheltered alfresco sits upon decking with outdoor fans for summer comfort – perfect for family barbecues while the kids splash and play in the pool. Recycled red-bricks curve around a fire pit and a variety of trees and plantings including Hong Kong orchid, natives, orange blossom, passionfruit, Valencia orange, kaffir lime, pomegranate and more. A large custom-built workshop is great for the home handyman, with a chook run in the corner, and an immaculately kept traditional outhouse toilet with the old laundry trough nearby.
Solar power, ceiling fans, ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning (upstairs) and tandem parking for three to four cars along the driveway, complete this light-filled sanctuary.
Designed to prioritise family flow and comfort, with endearing charm and contemporary style – this is a home to settle into for years to come, in a superb Freo pocket.
