Private Hilltop Home
This is a cherished and very private part of Cottesloe, being blessed with a high position. This property has views towards the ocean and the Hinterland. Owned by the current family for 47 years, this home has a large two-storey addition, with full-height ceilings to match the original home, and large bedroom spaces and overly spacious living areas including, but not limited to, a private study, enormous formal living and dining rooms either side of the oversized entry with its parquetry flooring, and a huge kitchen, meals, and family area opening to the north-western garden. I particularly like the way the front living room opens to the veranda and overlooks Cottesloe.
The upstairs children’s floor has a big attic rumpus room which is just perfect for active families. Externally, there is an oversized double garage and workshop underneath the home, as well as a garage to the side for deliveries, and this is adjacent to a workshop and storeroom. The house is framed behind a large tree and grass verge with a classic coastal garden and safe for children to explore. Out the back, there is plenty of room for entertaining around the barbecue, and this area is framed and protected by a huge date palm. The large tree could be good for a substantial cubby house !
What we like are the volumes of space that are on offer in this home. It is a home of very generous proportions, and it sits on a quite rare 774 m² landholding. This land appears even bigger as you approach over the large verge, which is quite a beautiful little parkland setting in itself. Your guests will appreciate the sense of arrival in this home, as its original verandah appeal is still strong. Your family will appreciate the location, where you walk down off the hill to Broome Street and then through to North Cottesloe Beach via the tennis courts or through Grant Marine Park. Your teenagers will discover ‘Daisies’ quickly and appreciate the ease with which you can access the village and schools and join all your mates in this wonderful beachside suburb.
This is a very rare property that you are all going to enjoy, and we can’t wait to welcome you to Cottesloe. Live your life large on the highest spot in Marmion Street. Make this home your own. NOW priced to Sell.
