Rewards are worth the renovation stress Transforming a home built in the 1920s to one fit for 2010 was the challenge, writes CARMELLE WILKINSON RENOVATING your home can be a rewarding and stressful experience, and no-one knows this to be truer than Altus Real Estate agent David Fear. With extensive renovations to his 1920s Nedlands home now complete, he spoke with Residential about the trials and setbacks associated with such a large project. “I’ve never been a believer in knocking down a home to make way for a new one, so when I first saw this Nedlands home I immediately saw its potential,’’ he said. “It was located in the most beautiful leafy street, and just minutes away from popular sporting clubs and the river.” Having renovated before, David knew what he was in for, but the attraction of giving this old home a new life was too appealing, and the renovation began in early 2009. Fourteen months in the making, and the results are astounding. “We took the best part of the

home and cleaned it out,’’ he said. “We made the floor plan work, and Kingsley Pearce Architects achieved a remarkable result.’’ Stunning new extensions to the home include a lavish living area with soaring ceilings and gas fireplace, a large multi-purpose room with ensuite and spa and a state-of-the-art kitchen with Caesar stone bench tops, servery, Bosch appliances and its own herb garden. Brand new travertine tiled bathrooms and a fabulous decked

area outside, are just a few other additions to the home. David said one of the biggest challenges when renovating was sticking to the budget. “Be prepared for it to double, as people often don’t take into account extra costs like landscaping, painting and window treatments. “Plans need to be thought out properly before you start any works, and it’s important to speak with your builder and architect.” While David was overjoyed with the results, he said his family found

the 14-month renovations to be quite frustrating towards the end. “My wife, and my daughters in particular, were thrilled when the renovations were finished, while my son, who is studying architecture, enjoyed it,’’ he said. “The house was always covered in dust and constantly having a stream of tradespeople in and out of the house was difficult at times.” With the home now on the market, David said he was looking for his next project. “I enjoy renovating, I like the creativity and

it’s great to see what could be done with a home that would have otherwise been bowled over. “I like to create a home that is inviting and welcoming and I think we achieved this with the Nedlands home. It’s got a great feel about it, and is fantastic for entertaining.” David said certain emotions were experienced when selling a home, and having been through the renovating process helped him better understand the anxieties and concerns his clients experienced when selling. ■

Aspect on Wellington provides range of apartment lifestyle choices More than half of the 80 apartments have already been snapped up off the plan, reports CARMELLE SANDER A PROMINENT city location, generous apartment sizes and affordable prices are luring homebuyers to Australand’s Aspect on Wellington residential complex. Construction on the development started this month, with 48 of the building’s 80 apartments already being snapped up off the plan. The 2530sqm site within East Perth’s revitalised Riverside precinct is surrounded by historic landmarks such as Queens Gardens and is close to Claisebrook Cove’s many restaurants and cafes. The seven-storey Aspect site fronts

Wellington Street and is less than 1km from the CBD. Apartments range from 86sqm to 135sqm with a choice of one-bedroom, one-bathroom and two-bedroom, two-bathroom combinations priced from $385,000 to $715,000. Australand general manager Richard Fulcher said the stylish design of the complex would attract young professionals or older couples seeking a modern, low-maintenance property. “There are layouts to suit a range of lifestyles and all of the floor plans make the most of the available space and boast open-plan living areas and quality fixtures and finishes,” he said.

“Residents will be able to enjoy a rooftop alfresco area, landscaped courtyard, barbecue facilities, a cinema lounge and a gym.” A secure underground parking area with storage bays and secure bicycle racks will be included in the complex. A local supermarket, video store and 24hour general store are also within walking distance. Aspect at Wellington is due for completion in early 2011. To register interest or for more information call 13 38 38 or visit www.australand.com.au ■

Bedrooms in a private wing including a magnificent home theatre plus a music room are features, writes JANE EVANS THERE is not one aspect of this sensational Applecross home to dislike. Built just over a year ago, the expansive property spans 1057sqm on a corner block. With seven bedrooms and three bathrooms, there is no shortage of space for the current owners and their five children. The home is as also as stylish as it is spacious. Clean lined architecture combines with travertine and bamboo to create a resort style sanctuary. The single-storey home has two entry points.

The primary entrance is off Munro Road with a timber decked walkway, stone facade and video entry doorbell. Inside, a floor to ceiling glass window displays an outdoor fishpond with an illuminated bamboo light box as a stunning backdrop. The bedrooms are in a private wing off the entrance. Most have striking wallpapered feature walls with plush chocolate coloured carpet. A magnificent home theatre and separate

music room off the garage feature acoustic walls and provide the perfect retreats for teenage children to do their own thing. At the other end of the home, a large open plan kitchen, lounge and dining features bifold doors that open out to a stunning outdoor area, designed by Ritz Exterior Design and featured on the cover of Scoop WA’s Best Outdoors and Gardens 2010 yearbook. The alfresco living area features an outdoor kitchen and timber decking that gives on to a beautiful swimming pool and water feature

bordering one part of the home. Back inside, an integrated salt-water aquarium is a focal point of the dining room, which is flanked by a galley kitchen with Gaggenau appliances and caeser stone bench tops, as well as a separate scullery and walk in pantry. An integrated fireplace makes the lounge room a warm and inviting space in the cooler months. Buildwise have yet again created a truly functional, modern masterpiece. ■

Magic mix of old, new A massive 14-month makeover has allowed this 1920s home to retain the charming qualities of yesteryear while taking on the best attributes of a 5-star hotel, reports CARMELLE WILKINSON FROM the moment I drove into the driveway of this Nedlands beauty I knew I was in for something special. Nestled in a quiet, leafy street this fully renovated 1920s home is a magical mix of old and new. A grand entrance leads you through to the opulent master suite with chill-out lounge area, fireplace and lavish ensuite. Owner and Altus Real Estate agent David Fear said it was like waking up in a five star hotel The home underwent a massive 14month renovation makeover, however retains

its charm and character from yesteryear, including original jarrah flooring in the entrance and hallway, panel ceilings and decorative cornices. Modern features include flash new travertine tiled bathrooms, brand new state-ofthe-art kitchen with Bosch appliances and a fabulous new living area, which David said is the real ‘hub’ of the home. This new addition is definitely the home’s crown jewel, with its soaring five-metre high ceilings, gas fireplace and Sonos sound system.

Bi-fold doors from this area open out to an expansive alfresco area with decking, a sparkling heated pool and immaculate easycare gardens with olive and citrus trees. A fantastic home to enjoy and to entertain in, David said he invited its past owners over for a get-together one night and they were overcome with emotion with the incredible changes that had been made. “It is a very soothing, versatile and relaxing home,’’ David told Residential. “The location is also fantastic. I could be on

the golf course ready to tee off in two minutes. “It’s also one traffic light to the City and close to a number of restaurants and the Swan River.’’ Completed to the highest of standards, the home is charmingly classy. A large multi purpose room off the main living area is currently a teenager’s haven, but could easily be turned into a second master or guest suite with a luxurious ensuite and spa bath. On a 1012sqm block it also features air conditioning and a herb garden. ■

Extensive use of glass allows light to bathe this architect-designed home. By JANE EVANS TUCKED away at the bottom of an elusive driveway is this spectacular, architect-designed home. Built a few years ago, the property has been immaculately maintained by its current owners. The first floor of the multi-level Oswald home is open and filled with light thanks to the extensive use of glass. A second living area is near the entrance while a dedicated home theatre occupies the ground floor. An open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining area has a void to the second storey and overlooks a stone-paved and tiered courtyard . A stunning lap pool runs alongside one half of the home. Concrete tiles used indoors continue through to the outdoor alfresco area, creating a flow of indoor, outdoor living.

There are four bedrooms and three bathrooms plus a powder room with a shower. Bamboo flooring to the stairs adds warmth to the home as does wool carpet in the bedrooms. Lacquered built-in-robes feature in the minor bedrooms. In the ensuite of the master bedroom, double geometric basins in Ceaserstone form the vanity. The second bedroom is large and also has an ensuite, designed as an alternate master suite or teenager’s room. Additional features include fulllength windows with climate control glass, stainless steel down lights throughout and remote control blinds. Just minutes from Claremont, this stylish home enjoys a prestigious address. â–

Home among the gum trees Relax in this lovingly redecorated home, writes CARMELLE WILKINSON FROM the moment Louise Daniels stepped foot into this fabulous Floreat home four years ago, she knew she was home. Everything about the home appealed to her – the layout, the trees and the location. The only features that needed to go were the outdated colour scheme, lighting and flooring. In their place, Louise installed modern fittings and fixtures, new window treatments, bamboo flooring, new carpet and eco-friendly features throughout. “We fell in love with the home straight away, it’s got a great feel about it and while it’s big there are no wasted spaces,’’ Louise said. “The whole house has been given a fresh

new look, and is very functional.’’ Adjacent to Bold Park, the home has a lovely aspect, and creates the feeling you are living among the trees. If you didn’t know where you were, you could be mistaken for thinking you were in the country, with only the sweet sounds of birds chirping to be heard in the whisper-quiet location. With four bedrooms, three bathrooms and ample sitting areas, the home is the perfect choice for a family. A fully contained granny flat off the living area is great as a teenagers’ retreat or when guests come to stay, with its own master suite and ensuite, kitchen and living area.

The parents’ retreat upstairs is something to be envied, with a large spa ensuite and a delightful wraparound balcony that overlooks the tropical garden and solar-heated pool below. Featuring decking, custom lighting and a cabana, the back yard is great for entertaining. Ideally situated, the home is only a short walk to the beach, and is close to a number of quality schools, shopping centres and restaurants and cafes. A third garage with mechanic’s pit can be used as a work studio, gym or storeroom. It also features reticulated gardens, an alarm system and an organic vegetable patch.

Luxury awaits in this brand new complex Attention to detail apparent in every room at Saint Quentins, reports JANE EVANS BLINK and you could miss this luxury apartment tucked nicely away in the brand new Saint Quentins complex. Sixty-two residences span five levels, and combine with 21 commercial premises on the lower levels. Saint Quentins is not a single building but is actually four separate areas built around a striking central piazza with beautifully designed gardens and water features. The two-bedroom, two-bathroom home has been meticously fitted out by leading

interior designer Judith Barratt Lennard who has given it a fresh, “Hamptons” style feel with elegant neutral décor and wide venture plank floorboards. Attention to detail is apparent in every room, with a palette of architectural design that reflects the sophisticated personality and understated style that is quintessentially Claremont. Number 217 features over 100 square metres of internal living with over-height ceilings and a casual flow between indoor and

outdoor living spaces. The gourmet kitchen features a Ceasorstone bench top, built-in stainless steel coffee machine and microwave, and other integrated appliances. Aluminium stack back windows provide a servery from the kitchen to the 23sqm external terrace, which has a lovely outlook over the piazza. The master bedroom is located at the rear of the home and has a walk-through robe leading to an ensuite bathroom. The guest bedroom is adjacent to a

REVIEWS

Room for five in this lovely home Stylish, low-maintenance living available in this prime location, writes JANE EVANS THERE are not many homes in Subi Centro that could comfortably accommodate a family of five. But that is exactly what the owner-builder of this Darbyshire Drive residence designed it for. The owners and their three teenage children moved into the home in 2006. “I enjoy seeing it from start to finish,” said the owner. The double storey home is positioned among a select row of homes on the edge of Kings Park. A contemporary red and grey colour scheme in the exterior ensures it stands out. Inside, varied ceiling heights and an extensive use of glass and bulkheads create a spacious, light filled home. A formal lounge or sitting room at the entrance has a two-storey high feature fireplace with travertine and oak flooring creating a dramatic statement. Timber framed frosted french doors throughout provide excellent separation between the ground floor living areas which

$3.5 Million THE PENTHOUSE 47 MOUNT STREET, WEST PERTH

HAVE A PROPERTY TO RENT? Melita Means Business Our Property Manager specialises in leasing properties to corporate tenants. Why not benefit from Melita’s corporate contacts with the management of your property?

FOR SALE You will find little opposition to the claims that Mount Street is the most desirable residential address in Perth. For a start, it’s a short stroll across the footbridge to the Terrace in one direction and Kings Park the opposite. Perched on the edge of Mt. Eliza, Benjamin Heights is a boutique and exclusive apartment building constructed in 2002. There are just 5 full floor apartments in the development which is complemented with a luxurious lobby and adjoining board room, lap pool, gym and spa. The penthouse is on offer for the first time. This unique property has the lion’s share of the building with the exclusivity of 531 sqm of the building on the title compared with 294 sqm for the apartments below. The exclusive areas are made up of 3 parking bays, balconies, storage, independent office, roof garden and luxuriously

appointed 3 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment. You hear people talk about ‘breathtaking views’ all the time. These words are bandied about loosely by a lot of agents about a lot of properties that are for sale. The view from this amazing apartment will truly stop you in your tracks. Like me, you too will walk away with a lasting impression that, with every recall moment, you can’t help but smile each and every time. It’s difficult to put the photos you see now into perspective, so I urge you to call me and make a time to view this wonderful home by appointment only.

LUXURY LIVING Symphonies in stone Full range of services from top design to skilled installers, reports JANE EVANS IF there is one name synonymous with quality limestone and natural stone products for indoor and outdoor living, it is WA based company Archistone. Archistone was founded in 1992, operating out a single quarry site in rural Gin Gin. The company created the reconstituted limestone block and developed its consistency and colourfast resilience to become a premium quality product. Today Archistone operates two manufacturing plants as well as quarrying. It is sold throughout UrbaneStone Central’s four retail showrooms and wholesales to over 70 outlets throughout the State, as well as South Australia, New South Wales and Victoria. With over 50 locally made reconstituted limestone blocks and pavers plus many more stone products sourced from all over the world, including sandstone from India, feature stone panels and granite from China, eldorado stone cladding USA and stone pebbles from Indonesia, it continues to lead the stone market. Archistone blocks have been tested to prove up to 60

per cent more dense than natural limestone, which limits overall penetration of water and saline solutions that are the main cause of colour deterioration. According to the company, the tighter the surface area and lower porosity of manufactured stone means that Archistone will maintain its colour under external conditions and is less susceptible to fungal deposits. The company specialises in bullnosing and capping, feature stonewalls, landscaping and edging blocks, paving, pier blocks and pier caps, walling blocks and water features. Archistone offers a full range of services from delivery with its own fleet of trucks to in-house design and authorised installers. It also services all aspects of the market from Architects and Engineers to Landscapers and the D.I.Y market. For more information, visit an expert consultant at one of the four UrbanStone Central showrooms in Nedlands, Yangebup, Mandurah or Wangara. ■

A wide variety of blocks and pavers can enhance any building.
