An ideal family home, offering two living areas, and a range of outdoor entertaining spots to choose from, there's plenty of room to get the whole family together, or to send everyone off to different corners of the house for some alone time! The original character features have been retained, including stunning polished jarrah boards, high ceilings, antique handblown glass light fittings, a fireplace in the lounge and slow combustion wood heater in the open plan living area. Once you venture beyond the white picket fence and unassuming street frontage of this classic Hilton cottage you are in for a big surprise.
From the open plan living area to the rear of the home, the view out over the beautiful timber deck to the sparkling salt water swimming pool and flourishing gardens beyond will take your breath away. Spend your summers playing backyard cricket on the lawn on this spacious 541 m2 block, sprawling in the sun on the back deck or sitting in the shade of the poolside cabana, enjoying a beer and a barbecue while the kids live their best lives, mastering backflips and bombies, keeping cool in the pool.
The front of the home is North facing, enjoy a morning cuppa in the winter sun on the wide front veranda, looking out over lush green lawns, established gardens and beyond, to the bushlands surrounding the local primary school and Hilton community gardens, which are straight across the road.
The formal lounge retains the original fireplace and large timber framed window, and offers built in storage, so could be used as a fourth bedroom if required. The renovated kitchen has stone tops, breakfast bar, dishwasher, 900 mm oven with gas cooktop, and loads of storage, and is open to the centrally located second lounge. Flowing on through the dining area, glass sliders beckon you out onto the elevated timber deck, an ideal spot for a sundowner, overlooking the pool, so you can relax whilst keeping an eye on the kids while they swim.
There is good separation between the three bedrooms, and the master and second bedrooms have built in robes. The third bedroom sits to the rear of the home, in an elevated position overlooking the pool, and would make a lovely, light filled office for those working from home. The main bathroom is complete with a lovely deep spa bath, and the second bathroom is spacious and offers a level shower hob and also houses the laundry.
There is lots of parking, with space for two cars on the paved hard stand in the front garden, plus secure parking for your vintage car or work vehicle loaded with tools in the extra height, powered single car drive-through garage. Having roller doors front and back means you can drive your boat or caravan through to store in the back yard.
Hilton has a fabulous reputation and is renowned for being such an inclusive community, with two fantastic primary schools, community gardens, children's playgrounds and parks galore, shops, cafes, a PCYC offering a variety of activities, and sits in a brilliant location, only moments from Fremantle, South Beach, high schools, universities, shopping centres, hospitals and freeway entries.
