16 Barcoo Avenue

Nedlands WA 6009

Accentuated by tuck-point character brickwork, original solid wooden Jarrah floorboards and soaring high ceilings, this exceptional property welcomes you inside via a generous verandah entry deck that splendidly overlooks a large, gated, northwest-facing front yard with sprawling green lawns and lovingly-manicured gardens. The kids in particular will love the room to play and set their imaginations free.

The front home office doubles as a formal lounge room (or potential fourth bedroom if need be) and has its own feature log fireplace, storage either side, split-system air-conditioning unit and gorgeous double French doors for privacy. Ceiling fans, built-in wardrobes and split-systems are commonplace within the two large spare bedrooms, whilst a fully-tiled and renovated main family bathroom sits off the central gallery/sitting area and plays host to a toilet, Villeroy + Boch basin, set within a marble vanity, frameless glass shower, separate bathtub offset with brass towel rail and tapware.

The kitchen is charming and comprises of a storage pantry, tiled splashbacks, a gas cooktop, separate oven, a sleek white Fisher and Paykel double-drawer dishwasher and a stainless-steel range hood. Down below, the sunken open-plan family and dining area is where most of your casual time will be spent and features split-system air-conditioning, a gas bayonet for heating, a ceiling fan, built-in media cabinetry and double doors that extend entertaining out to a poolside verandah and pergola in the backyard.

The shimmering below-ground swimming pool has an in-ground cover and overlooks a sunken firepit courtyard with built-in benched seating. Back inside, a commodious master-bedroom suite is tucked away to the rear of the house and enjoys the luxury of ample built-in-robe space, another split-system and fan, white plantation window shutters that frame a view of the yard and a contemporary ensuite with a shower, toilet, heat lamps and twin "his and hers" vanities.

Walk down to the stunning College Park playing fields, with bus stops, the Taylor Road IGA supermarket, fitness facilities, cafes, restaurants and even the local veterinary clinic all within easy strolling distance. A very close proximity to other lush parklands, our picturesque Swan River, Nedlands Golf Club and other prestigious sporting clubs in the area, The University of Western Australia, medical facilities, world-class shopping at Claremont Quarter, Claremont Train Station and top schools - Christ Church Grammar School, Scotch College, Methodist Ladies' College and several primary schools included - should not be underestimated either. The city and coast are also nearby, really making this a location to cherish for many years to come. How wonderful!
