Mount Lawley WA 6050

Lovingly maintained by its current owners, it now blends beautifully preserved period features with abundant modern comforts.
Add the location - a leafy, elevated corner block in tranquil Mount Lawley, within easy reach of the CBD - and the result is a unique home for the discerning buyer.
Beautifully landscaped formal gardens set off the red brick facade and deep front veranda. Inside, the formal entry sets the tone, with intricate stained glass windows and timber-panelled walls, and leads through to a grand central staircase.

A vast formal dining room has soaring ceilings and a working gas fireplace, and leafy views through leadlight windows. The main living room has equally grand proportions, making this a fine home for entertaining.
The kitchen is a contemporary space, but in keeping with the rest of the house, with characterful French Provincial style cabinetry. With granite bench tops, abundant storage, and a handy drop zone for phones and keys. All appliances are near new and include Miele double ovens and separate steam oven, Wolf gas cook top and Sub-Zero fridge. It is a well-appointed, light-filled room that adjoins a conservatory-style sun room.
Flooded with natural light, this is the spot for casual meals while taking in the home's beautiful backyard. Steps lead down to a stone-walled cellar, with temperature control for your wine collection and space for enjoying a drop or two.
To the rear of the house is secure access to a double garage, with extra off-street parking for two cars behind the security gates. It leads into the house via a mudroom with extensive storage, a generous laundry, and a powder room for guests.
The four first-floor bedrooms all have soaring ceilings and generous proportions, as well as French doors leading out to a deep wraparound balcony that takes in views of the city skyline and the hills to the east.
The main suite has an ensuite with a marble-topped double vanity and glass-framed shower. Next door is a family bathroom with a shower, timber-and-marble vanity and beautiful clawfoot bathtub.
The gardens are as romantic and beautifully executed as the house, with a pond and water feature, exquisite roses, lush lawns, and classic plant combinations including box jasmine, camellia, magnolia and olive, citrus and pear trees. More recent additions include a vast pool surrounded by sandstone paving, two sheltered cabanas for lazing by the pool or enjoying an alfresco meal, an outdoor shower, a pizza oven and an established kitchen garden planted in four raised beds.
Close to the city, and with the buzz of Beaufort Street just minute away, this is a magical and historic home in one of Perth's most coveted and convenient locations.
