132 Cobb Street, Scarborough WA 6019

Charming cottage from the outside, unique architecturally designed elegance on the inside meets luxury resort out the back; 132 Cobb Street has everything. The coastal cottage with its weatherboard exterior and bull-nosed verandah looks right at home in the Scarborough streetscape but once you open the oversized wooden church front door you enter a space that is high-end designer. Use of dark, moody timber and touches of recycled red brick, defines what is otherwise soaring white spaces filled with northern light.

This is a home for discerning buyers who appreciate great design and luxury. The stunning four-bedroom home is set on a vast 852sqm and includes ocean glimpses from the backyard, large undercover deck, separate studio and an elegant gas-heated pool and spa.

With jarrah floorboards, a gas log fireplace, wooden beams held with black wrought iron fixings and double-height raked ceilings to the living and dining area this home has the warmth, volume and substance admired in much-loved colonial residences. This rustic appeal is married elegantly with modern luxury in areas such as the designer kitchen complete with 900mm gas oven and stove top, an abundance of storage, white subway tile splashbacks paired with white cabinetry and white stone tops and a large island bench with stone waterfall bench-top.

The three minor bedrooms are generously sized and each have calming outlooks to the landscaped designed gardens surrounding the home. Two bedrooms open onto a stunning pool area. The luxurious north-facing master bed adjoins an elegant light-filled bathroom with concrete-look porcelain tiles, wall-hung vanity and adjustable Velux skylight.

Nothing has been overlooked in this home: the outdoors areas are filled with everything you could possibly desire. The perfectly proportioned backyard is blessed with a rare large grassed area perfect for petanque or a game of cricket overlooking casual views of the ocean. Despite the opportunity to watch the sun set over the Indian Ocean while enjoying a glass of red and a game of bocce, it is the truly beautiful travertine-tiled gas-heated pool and spa area that steal the gaze. Nestled among glass balustrading and mature plantings of fragrant creepers and box hedges, the pool is set between the 50msq of expansive undercover decking and a charming guest studio which itself has views over the lawns of the backyard.

The guest-house is carpeted and air-conditioned and large enough to use for almost any purpose: teenage retreat, pilates/yoga, a home away from home for overseas visitors, you name it. Completing the delightful backyard is a shed and who doesn’t love a good shed? - a chook pen covered with passionfruit vine, raised vegetable beds, a cubby house with slide and under-house storage.

This is an ideal family home in a dream coastal suburb. Every detail has been considered in this property leaving nothing left to do but welcome the next family. Just launched on to the market, 132 Cobb Street will not last long.
