LARGE FAMILY HOME OOZING CHARACTER & CHARM.
223 Herbert Street, Doubleview WA 6018
What to love
- Open-plan family living at its best with a modern, functional layout.
- Sealed rear access laneway opens up a myriad of opportunities.
It is impossible to not fall in love with this gracious four-bedroom, two bathroom renovated character home. 223 Herbert Street evokes feelings of truly being at home because it offers the twin luxuries of time & space. Time because it is a character-filled solid brick & tile home featuring soaring high ceilings & ornate cornices, stunning Tasmanian Oak timber floorboards & details like art deco style leadlighting in the front door. And space because it sits among generous gardens on a east/west-facing block of 663sqm with rear lane access.
There are so many things you could do with this beautiful home. The first & most obvious option would be to do absolutely nothing & move in & enjoy it exactly as it is because this home offers a highly desirable lifestyle in an excellent location without the need to do a single thing. Many buyers would be looking at those beautiful outdoor spaces and dreaming of the cubby houses & safe outdoor spaces for their children as well as the double garage with accommodation they could build with access from the sealed rear lane. Another potential option is to develop a further dwelling on the rear of the block.
The kitchen is the hub of the home, plenty of storage & a layout that provides the ideal workflow. The formal dining area, adjacent to the lounge, is easily accessed from the kitchen. The layout of the home makes it possible for parents to relax in quiet zones, using sliding doors to separate the more formal area from the main living area.
The living area's sliding glass doors expand the entire room for summer, allowing the luxury of the cooling sea breeze to drift in from nearby Scarborough beach. This will definitely save on power bills but if needed the entire home has ducted evaporative air conditioning & ducted gas heating as well as being fully insulated with batts. In winter, the wood burning combustion stove and gas fireplace will keep everyone feeling snug & warm as well.
The sliding doors allow easy migration onto the verandah for alfresco dining during warm evenings. Sunsets & evening light filter through a mature gum tree that shades the back garden & lawn during the day, adding cool conditions to a safe play area for children.
The master bedroom overlooks the enchanting front garden and large beautifully crafted built-in floor to ceiling robe extends across one wall plus a large en-suite with full size bath & shower.
Three more bedrooms allow for flexibility in lifestyle. They can accommodate a family of children, be set aside to allow for visitor accommodation or used as a home office. The flexibility is perfect for a growing family.
Tree-lined Doubleview is the “go-to” place for people wanting to stay close to the CBD, the beach & ensure they are buying into an area that will continue to flourish.
