Sunlit and serene, behind the garden-walled privacy of beautifully landscaped grounds, this is a home where family life unfolds with ease. You couldn’t be better placed for everything: parks in every direction, local schools and bus stops a stroll away, Melville Reserve and LeisureFit up the road, and the Marmion Street shopping village round the corner for groceries and coffee – with Woolworths and Coles just as close.
A majestic jacaranda frames the picture-perfect façade, with an idyllic northern aspect drawing abundant light through. Inside, original jarrah floors add warmth and character against elegant white plantation shutters, while the sense of space is a welcome surprise. French doors open out to the pretty front garden, creating serene indoor-outdoor flow that makes it easy to keep an eye on the kids while prepping meals, with a rear alfresco off the dining.
The stone-topped kitchen is the ultimate family hub: waterfall island bench, soft-close cabinetry and a suite of integrated Miele appliances – dishwasher, coffee machine, microwave and electric oven – plus a Bosch gas stovetop. Out the back, a sheltered veranda is the perfect perch for a quiet drink or meal, elevated and peaceful as the breezes roll through. Above a patch of easy-care artificial lawn, there’s also nearby access to the laundry, housed in the single lock-up garage.
Extending down the hallway are four bedrooms; two alongside a sparkling bathroom with a bathtub, and one that makes an ideal study or nursery by the master in their own separate wing. The main suite is generously sized with lovely garden outlooks, a walk-in robe, ceiling fan and stylish ensuite that defies the home’s 50s origins: sea-blue herringbone tiles, floating oak vanity and a rainshower behind curved glass.
Solar power, security cameras, ducted heating and cooling, and driveway parking for multiple vehicles, including a boat or caravan, enhance this wonderful family home in one of the most desirable pockets in Melville.
