Beyond stone walls with brick quoins, this century-old gem is filled with character: wide jarrah floors, leadlight glass with pops of colour, and high-ceilinged spaces adorned with intricate ceiling roses. The front courtyard offers sheltered seclusion from all the action on your doorstep, and you can stroll to the beach whenever you like for an ocean dip or magical west coast sunset – an experience just as beautiful from the steps of the rear veranda, overlooking the lovely back garden. Upon entry, the master bedroom peels off to the right with a walk-in robe and glossy ensuite, while the air-conditioned lounge is delightful with the option to spill out, via double doors, to the front courtyard. A storied glimpse of the past continues through the country-style kitchen and funky, black-and-white retro extension at the rear, as two more bedrooms extend down the hallway – each sharing the colourful bathroom (through the laundry) with a bathtub, vanity, toilet, and corner shower. Sitting pride of place in the timber kitchen is a Metters wood-fired stove, a nostalgic nod to simpler times, with a sleek, modern La Germania oven alongside. There's also a little breakfast bar nook and treed outlook through the window to the back garden beyond. Out the back, decking flows to built-in bench seating for the undercover alfresco, where you can sit and enjoy the atmosphere – and if you're lucky, spot the black cockatoos that love to pay a visit. Tall, leafy trees, including a mature olive, add to the serenity, and a powered work shed in the corner is great for storage or tinkering away on home handyman projects. Finally, the long driveway down the side is a welcome addition for off-street parking for multiple vehicles – a rarity in this location. Surrounded by leafy streetscapes lined with character homes, the beach so close, and all the delights of South Terrace nearby – this is a home that fits right in.
