Beyond double front gates lies a leafy sanctuary defined by lush lawns and gardens, abundant shade and birdlife and a sparkling below-ground swimming pool - framed by a sunny paved courtyard and a covered entry verandah that allows for sitting and quiet contemplation, in complete privacy.

A huge tiled entry foyer is perched behind double front doors, with separate double doors revealing a commodious open-plan family, meals and kitchen area downstairs - complete with a gas bayonet, a feature log fireplace and double-door access out to the verandah and yard. The functional kitchen itself is made up of character cabinetry, tiled splashbacks, double sinks, a microwave recess, a walk-in pantry, an integrated range hood, a Chef ceramic cooktop, a stainless-steel Westinghouse double oven/grill, a stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher, a splendid front-garden vista and a double servery window to the adjacent home office.

Double and single French doors enclose an L-shaped formal lounge and dining room that is reserved for those special occasions and has its own log fireplace, gas bayonet and double-French-door access out to the backyard, where a paved entertaining area and low-maintenance artificial turf help create the most serene of settings.

The office boasts three doors of built-in storage cupboards, another gas bayonet, a ceiling fan, attractive white plantation window shutters and double doors that extend out to the front courtyard - and also double as a separate entrance for your potential business clients. Also on the ground level are a double linen press, a laundry chute from the upper floor, ample storage (and backyard access) to the laundry, a third bathroom with a shower, toilet, vanity and under-bench storage and a fifth or "guest" bedroom opposite - featuring a built-in double wardrobe, a linen press and an outlook across the rear yard.

Upstairs, another living/rumpus room sits behind French doors and has its own fan and gas bayonet. An expansive light-filled master suite enjoys a ceiling fan, a decent walk-in robe, a relaxing spa-bath and twin-vanity ensuite and an under-cover balcony that shares amazing river, hill, park and sunrise views with the interior.

The additional three upper-level bedrooms all have fans, built-in robes and direct access to the terrific front balcony deck, whilst serviced by a linen press, a hidden kitchenette, a powder room and a main family bathroom with a separate bath and rain shower.

Backyard stairs lead up to the elevated studio - complete with its own electric hot-water system, split-system air-conditioning, wooden floorboards and a pitched entry deck. Inside, its open-plan living, eating and modern-kitchen area benefits from a cathedral-style ceiling, a fan, seating/storage, a skylight, river glimpses, stone bench tops, a Miele electric cooktop and a Westinghouse under-bench oven. The carpeted bedroom has a fan, built-in robe and linen cupboard, whilst the bathroom next door comprises of a shower and toilet.

Underneath, a large lock-up rear storeroom - or workshop - can be whatever you want it to be. Also at the rear of the property is a double carport with gated access to a paved alfresco/alcove - and loads of driveway parking space preceding it.

Nestled metres from the verdant green Melvista Park and mere steps from Nedlands Tennis Club, Nedlands Golf Club and the water, this one is definitely a natural fit for active lifestyles. The lovely Birdwood Park also sits around the corner, with a leisurely stroll guiding you to the iconic Steve's Hotel and the vibrant Broadway shopping, food and coffee trip.
