Spencer Park WA 6330

If you're meticulous or a little OCD, then this home will greatly appeal to you! True, the house seems rather unassuming from the outside, although you will immediately notice that it's immaculately kept. BUT a huge - and extremely pleasant surprise - awaits once you enter! You have to SEE this home and craftsmanship to truly appreciate it.The current owners meticulously planned it down to the finest detail and then finished it off with almost every imaginable extra to make life-and living here-an absolute pleasure. The brilliant layout will suit different buyers' needs, whether you're a family, an executive couple, retirees, or an investor. The office/study, 3.4m L x 2.73m W, on the right of entry, with its 3.3m built-in desk and shelves, can easily be converted into bedroom 4 if needed. There are 3 data points in here-1 for the modem and 2 for the living room TV. The home is already larger than the norm at 241m2, as the owners got special permission to build almost right to the 3 m back fence sewerage easement.One of the main delights of this property is the 46.5 m2 garage, which can be directly accessed from the home. The 2.25m high roller opening is a neat, extra wide panel-lift door with top windows. Facing the garage, on the right, is a store/work area complete with a built-in workbench, cupboards and 4 double power points - roughly 2.090 m wide and 6.110m long. On the left back is a 3,010m roller door leading to a paved back area (3.5m W and 15.3m L) where you can securely store a small boat, trailer and/or a low-height caravan. It makes you wonder why more homes do not utilise their space so ingeniously - 10/10! There is parking space for 4 vehicles in the driveway. The private main bedroom at the back is a whopping 5.8m x 5.8 m2 and has a massive walk-in robe that would turn most women green with envy. The high-quality, spacious bathroom boasts 2 shower heads-rain and handheld-a basin and a separate toilet. The main bedroom doors, like the front door and passageway, are extra wide and wheelchair-friendly. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are a little bigger than standard bedrooms-2.910 x 4.210m2-and have built-in robes. They share a full family bathroom (extra-large and deep bath) between them. The separate toilet is also convenient for guests. Both rooms overlook the south paved area behind the garage.The large, open-plan kitchen is delightful and very functional, with its beautiful stone benchtops, loads of self-closing cupboards and drawers, Miele dishwasher, plumbed in water to the fridge-freezer cavity (1,840hx 1,100w), AEG oven and 900mm induction cooktop, double sink, and special 970mm benchtop heights to make cooking more convenient and pleasurable. The open walk-in pantry has shelves below the bench and overhead, plus extra drawers near the oven and stove, providing easy access to your herbs and spices. The functional laundry, with its double-stacked WM/dryer cupboard, linen cupboard, and trough with under-bench cupboards, has direct access to the sunny northern terrace and washing line.This home was also designed as an entertainer's delight as they have a big family who love to visit. The large open plan lounge/living area and the 2.1m H x 2.7 W TV recess with internal HDMI and data cabling from the study serve as a home cinema. The stunning alfresco area (3.9m W x 5.5m L), with its gorgeous coffered ceilings and bifold doors, opens from the living area. Manual-operated slide-down patio blinds and 2 infrared heaters ensure the ideal temperature and light/wind control for all weather conditions. Two double-glazed Velux Remote Control Rain Sensor skylights were fitted in the kitchen and living areas, ensuring the home is light and bright during the day, regardless of the weather. There is also a reverse-cycle air conditioner for temperature control, and the three windows that face north in the kitchen and living area are also double-glazed. Outside, you'll find a 700l rainwater tank, 5 external power points including the alfresco area, a water softener unit, a 6.6kw Growatt Solar System, concrete walkways and paving around the home, a 270l IStore heat pump hot water system and fully reticulated lawns and gardens, including at the raised vegetable garden bed on the western side of the home. They also have mesh guard security doors at the entrance and laundry. A gate behind the house near the vege garden can keep pets safe if you're not home. The rest of the property is fenced off around the front garden, while high Colourbond fencing around the rest of the home provides extra security, shelter from prevailing winds as well as privacy. Some of the biggest advantages of this property are the position, area and privacy - right opposite St Joseph's College car park and close to the hospital. It gets a little busy for about 15 minutes at school drop-off and pick-up times, but it's dead quiet on weekends, school holidays and every evening - much preferred to having neighbours looking directly at you while relaxing on your front porch. The property sits high, which adds privacy, and faces east, so you enjoy the magnificent sun- and moon rises, and it's very sheltered from the prevailing winds. The closest shop is IGA Spencer Park (newly revamped), which is only 2 minutes by car, and it's quick to get to town via Ulster Road or in the opposite direction towards Bayonet Head. How do I know? I live in the neighbourhood, too, and love the convenience, peace and quiet. The last question I'm often asked is ambulance noise - and no, you don't hear ambulances very often; they only put their sirens on in heavy traffic, not when they get near the hospital - and they never come up via Martin Road from Ulster Road as the road is a little too steep for their passengers. Another small bonus is that we seldom get power cuts even if the rest of town is out because we fall into the hospital zone. This could also be a brilliant investment/rental property, especially if you sign a longer lease with the government-they desperately need more accommodation for their nurses. It's literally a hop and skip from the hospital, and a few owners in our neighbourhood have been taking full advantage of this opportunity for years. Why not you? This luxurious, spacious and well-planned home will be snapped up instantly, so if you're a qualified buyer and ready to settle at the end of January, please contact the sole agent, Jess, for a private inspection. You'll be so glad you did!**IMPORTANT: My sellers are buying another property and cannot move out or settle until the end of January 2025.
