18 Shannon Street

Floreat WA 6014

THE LOCATIONNestled halfway between the heart of Perth City and the sparkling waters of City Beach, West of Forum, Floreat is Perth City's most exclusive garden suburb location - and Shannon Street is perhaps the precincts most whisper quiet no-through-traffic street. Big blocks, quiet streets and blue-chip family life are the norm here. Surrounded on 4 sides by Perry Lakes Reserve, Bold Park bushland, Wembley Golf Course and Floreat ovals, you are the easiest of strolls to some of this state's most significant sporting infrastructure as well as shopping, restaurants, and cafes in both the suburbs of City Beach and Floreat.THE HOMEStep inside the Indian Hawthorn hedges which cocoon this property from the outside world and discover a world where the lush greenery that West of the Forum is renowned for is magnified - such is the beautiful landscaped majesty that surrounds this glorious single level Hamptons style home by luxury boutique builders Riverstone homes. Formal limestone entrance pillars give way to this "as new", character inspired brick and tile home with gorgeous feature chimney in striking granite stone, and quaint timber feature facade giving a nod to its inspirations of yesteryear. A formal entrance hall and gallery greets you on arrival and creates privacy from the rest of the home. To the left is an adults wing comprising a home office which could double as a nursery, a parents retreat which overlooks pool and landscaped gardens, and the master suite with abundant walk-in robe and ensuite bathroom with twin vanities and free standing bath. To the right is the generous double lock up garage and a sophisticated guest powder room. At the far end of the gallery double doors give way to the central living area - a lounge dining kitchen family together space flooded with natural northern light and opening out onto a sun-drenched north-facing alfresco dining and kitchen area adjacent to the below ground pool. Externally, white timber panelled ceilings, plantation ceiling fans and all natural travertine stone outdoor flooring give the alfresco space a luxurious ambience. Potted greenery and courtyards fringed with flowering Boston Ivy give a lush and established feel. Internally, high ceilings, environmentally passive architectural breezeways and ceiling fans combine with timber shutters, warm American Oak timber boards underfoot and built in white timber bookcases (that are sure to prompt you to curate your own personal library) all combine to continue the classic plantation aesthetic. The kitchen is the engine room of the home. Overlooking and open plan to lounge and dining, it has a clear view of the kids in the pool. Organised alongside the laundry and with its own scullery (including second sink and second dishwasher) and computer nook for household maintenance this is the perfect control centre providing every lever you need to pull for the harmonious maintenance of family life right there at your fingertips! To the back of the home the kids wing has a third living area / TV / play room which opens onto rear lawns and gardens. Here the kids can enjoy life and make a mess that you can quickly conceal just by shutting the door when your guests arrive. If your kids are young, they can open the doors again and they can still feel safe close to mum and dad in the main kitchen and lounge. If they are older they can have their own privacy in this rear wing - the perfect design! Three huge kids bedrooms each allow space for sleeping studying and lounging. They share a family bathroom with separate powder. The three distinct wings of this home allow adults sanctuary at the front of the home, kids privacy and free play at the rear and family togetherness in the central living spaces. This is a design which is sure to create years of harmonious family life allowing all to retreat for quiet time or socialise for family togetherness as their individual needs require.
