Taking inspiration from European maisonettes, the current owners thoughtfully designed this three bedroom, three bathroom home to encompass two residences, giving versatility and longevity.

With multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces, this fantastically flexible house will appeal to professional couples, families with younger kids, teenagers or adult children, as well as downsizers or retirees who enjoy having house guests.
The house is a graceful part of quiet and highly sought after Loma Street, its timeless European features complemented by traditional gardens. Step through the antique front doors into a gracious entry foyer with grand sweeping staircase and stunning lighting and it would be easy to imagine you have been transported to Europe. Walled, secure, calming and quiet, this is a house where you can truly come home to relax and reset. Travertine floors and textured walls run throughout the main floor. A beautiful north-facing study with peacock- blue walls opens onto the western patio, while offering a multi-purpose room ideal for an office, playroom, teen retreat or studio.
Nearby is the spacious, inviting family room, and beyond the breathtaking north-facing open-plan kitchen and dining. Push aside the doors to open this room up to the stunning gardens. On a 650sqm block, the delightfully private gardens are full of white-flowered stephanotis, roses, gardenias and magnolias. Host long table dinners under the grapevine-clad patio, or start your morning here with a coffee, a private spot to enjoy the blue skies and gentle trickle of the lily pond.
Enjoy a choice of outdoor spaces - there is also a covered western patio with louvered skylights and built-in barbecue, and a beautiful front balcony that looks across Cottesloe's iconic Norfolk Island pines. The classic contemporary kitchen will delight chefs; with stone benchtops, top quality appliances and peaceful garden view from the sink. Push aside the doors to open the home up to the patios; this is a home designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living.
In a private wing is the parents retreat.

There is a tidy garden storage shed, guest powder room and a beautiful, well-planned laundry that makes a menial task a pleasure.
Location-wise, the house offers peace yet practicality; Loma Street is ultra-quiet; yet central to everything fabulous Cottesloe has to offer. The home is only minutes away walk from the beach, cafes, shops and train station. Start your days walking to Pilates or the beach; in the evenings enjoy a wine with friends before strolling to dinner by the water.
