36 St Vincents Avenue, Wembley, WA 6014

AUCTION ON SITE 11:30AM SAT 26TH JULY (Unless Sold Prior)

Mornings begin with soft light spilling through angled glass, the stillness of the lake just beyond. Evenings draw in slowly, framed by soft sheers, warm brick, and the feeling of a home designed to breathe with its surroundings. At 36 St Vincent's Avenue in Wembley, architecture is more than structure-it's a daily rhythm and a deep connection to the light, space, and view beyond its walls.

Positioned directly opposite Galup (Lake Monger), with an exquisite parkland and water outlook, this bespoke architect-designed home is a rare union of sharp contemporary design and soulful, grounded living. Every element of its two-level layout is shaped by orientation, light, and flow - and that alone makes this home special.

From its commanding street presence, there is an immediate sense that this is a building that creates its own rules. A striking façade of dark face brick, black-framed windows, and honed aggregate. The layered landscaping, mature frangipani and the calming rhythm of timber accents provide a taste of what's to follow. A wide, elevated timber-decked entry, framed by an oversized front door, signals the home's intent; generosity, scale, warmth. 

Step inside and you're greeted by a showstopping open plan living and kitchen zone, awash with northern light. The ceiling lifts in height and angles dramatically, crowned in lightly stained panelling - sophisticated yet highly inviting. Polished concrete floors underfoot ground the space with a cool minimalism, while expansive glazing and full-height window sheers let the winter sun deep into the home.

This is a place of belonging, crafted as much for entertaining, as for quiet moments. Sliding doors open onto a large north-facing deck and lawn, all fully enclosed and thoughtfully landscaped with mature trees, a fire pit, and low-maintenance plantings. Every outdoor space here has intention and atmosphere. 

Back inside, the kitchen is about clean lines and tonal contrasts: pale timber cabinetry, white stone surfaces, integrated appliances, and a minimalist island bench. Westinghouse appliances offer premium function, while the adjacent scullery - complete with additional double sink, pantry storage and full-height overhead cupboards - keeps life elegantly out of sight. The scullery merges with the highly functional laundry and then out to the garage, creating a back-of-house utility spine that's as practical as it is discrete.

Tucked behind the main living zone, the ground-floor guest suite is quietly luxurious. It enjoys its own external access via the garage, making it ideal for guests, teenagers, or even multi-generational living. With walk-in robes, a beautifully finished ensuite, and its own access to a tranquil rear courtyard - complete with a sensational outdoor freestanding bath - it's a space you'll find hard to leave.

Upstairs, it's all about flexibility and retreat. A second living area with its own parkland view sits at the top of the stairs, perfect as a media zone or teenager's breakout space. From here, the plan fans out to four additional bedrooms - all of which enjoy private balconies, north-facing orientation, and views to Galup.

The primary suite is particularly impressive: dual walk-in robes with extensive custom cabinetry, a built-in workstation, and an indulgent ensuite with freestanding tub, double vanity, and full-height tiling. The wide balcony runs across the front façade, immersed in its tree canopy surroundings.

The other three bedrooms - all generous in size - share a beautifully appointed family bathroom with soaking tub, frameless shower, and separate powder room. Each bedroom includes fitted robes, full-height doors, LED lighting, and access to its own private outdoor space.

And then there's the location. St Vincent's Avenue is one of Wembley's most tightly held streets - wide, tree-lined, and with direct access to the lake. Close to Subiaco and Leederville, it is within easy freeway access and just minutes to the beach or city.
