Note - the 397sqm vacant block next door at 6 Rupert Street is also listed for sale and will be auctioned at the same time.

Tranquilly nestled up the cul-de-sac end of one of Subiaco's leafiest and most sought-after streets, this gorgeous 5 bedroom 2 bathroom residence wears its heart on its sleeve - rich in character, brimming with warmth and wrapped in timeless charm.  From its lovingly-preserved details to its inviting spaces made for flexible living, this is the kind of place that instantly feels like home. Every corner tells a story, every room welcomes you in - and the vibe? Well, it's pure magic.

There is plenty of scope to add further personal modern touches throughout, adding to soaring high ceilings, solid wooden floorboards, decorative ceiling cornices and tall feature skirting boards that help maintain the property's original nostalgia of yesteryear. Beyond a stunning white picket fence and gate lies a secure front garden, as well as a delightful bull-nose entry verandah with feature leadlight panelling.

Inside, huge front master and second bedrooms both boast their own built-in wardrobes, classic fireplaces and ceiling fans. A large main family bathroom is graced by a shower, toilet, vanity and skylight for natural illumination.

A generous third bedroom has built-in robes, a fan and an original fireplace too, as well as double-door access out to a pleasant side courtyard - ideal for sitting and quiet contemplation. A handy study nook features low-maintenance timber-look flooring and views out to a private second courtyard, where a lock-up storeroom helps keep those tools and toys out of sight, but not necessarily out of mind.

The spacious and central open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is where most of your casual time will be spent amidst easy-care wood-look floors, two ceiling fans, a gas bayonet for heating and separate access doors that lead out to both respective courtyards - as well as a newly-landscaped backyard with lawn and a splendid sense of serenity.

The practical kitchen itself comprises of double sinks and contemporary stainless-steel range-hood, gas-cooktop and under-bench Euromaid oven appliances.

The separate sleeping quarters at the back of the house are shut off from the living zone and play host to a powder room (with a skylight), a second bathroom (with another skylight, shower and vanity basin), a double linen press, the fourth and fifth bedrooms (with fans, timber-look floors and full-height built-in robes) and a large laundry - complete with a door extending to the secure yard, as well as a third entertaining courtyard that is shaded, protected and nicely secluded. Gated backyard access via Salisbury Street at the rear is simply an added bonus here, also.

A mere stone's throw away, you will discover our iconic Kings Park - a true testament to the embodiment of natural beauty. This outstanding neighbourhood not only offers a handy proximity to excellent local Schools (including Subiaco Primary School, Bob Hawke College and Perth Modern), but also provides a plethora of dining, café, bar and shopping options along neighbouring Rokeby Road. 

All of your other daily essentials are within arm's reach too, with a well connected network of local bus stops and public-transport routes ready to serve. Convenience has never been more impressive - this romantic and elegant offering is as cosy and storybook as they come!
