47 James St, Curtin is a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom House with 3 parking spaces. The property has a land size of 741m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in May 2006.
Set in one of Curtin's most sought-after locations, this expansive residence combines generous proportions, outstanding versatility and exciting future potential. Designed to accommodate a variety of living arrangements, the home features four bedrooms on the upper level alongside a multi-purpose area below, creating excellent possibilities for extended family, a home business or creative workspace. Enjoying views towards Parliament House and framed by established landscaped gardens, the home offers a rare combination of immediate liveability and the opportunity to reimagine, renovate and create a home tailored to your lifestyle.
Stepping inside, buyers will immediately appreciate the individuality and scale that define the home. The welcoming entry opens to a spacious L-shaped living and dining area, where ornate cornices add character and large north-facing windows draw in natural light throughout the day. Extending from the dining space, a charming enclosed greenhouse-style pergola provides a peaceful setting to enjoy a morning coffee or take in the outlook. Rich, high-gloss timber floorboards flow through to the kitchen, where the home's original character has been thoughtfully preserved. Compact in design and featuring marble benchtops, the space carries a nostalgic charm reminiscent of a bygone era.
Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged across the upper level, with the main bedroom privately positioned away from the remaining bedrooms and complete with a built-in robe and ensuite. Three additional spacious bedrooms, each with built-in robes, are serviced by the original family bathroom, offering comfortable accommodation for growing families.
Adding another layer of flexibility to the home is the multi-purpose area on the lower level. Privately accessed via its own entrance and with no internal connection to the main residence, this substantial space opens the door to a wide range of possibilities. Whether utilised as a teenager's retreat, rumpus room, creative studio or dedicated work-from-home environment, it provides a level of separation that is increasingly sought after, and is particularly well suited to professionals who meet with clients or require a quiet space away from the main household. An adjoining workshop or hobby room further enhances its versatility, while multiple enclosed storage areas provide excellent practical storage solutions.
