About our home

Our house is an elegant renovated Edwardian home with charm and design flair. It is less than1 km north of Perth’s CBD, close to the Northbridge cultural precinct & nightlife, and is in easy walking distance to trendy Highgate, Leederville & Mt Lawley shops, cafes & restaurants.

Why our house? Location, Location, Location! - We live in an ideal cosmopolitan neighbourhood which is the perfect base to explore all that the city and State has to offer. We have buzzy restaurants: e.g. Jackson’s, Cantina 663, Beaufort Street Merchant, Phi Yen, La P’tite Ardois, Nahm Thai. We have cool bars: e.g. Must , Clarences, Brisbane, Queens, Hyde Park. We have cosy cafes: e.g. West End Deli, Tarts, Lincolns, MilkD, Il Circolo. There is also lots of culture: Perth Concert Hall, the State Theatre, His Majesty’s Theatre (opera and ballet), Ellingtons Jazz Club, arthouse cinemas and many art galleries. All of this is within walking distance or less than 5 minutes by car.

Do you crave some retail therapy? Try the Beaufort Street shops. Or, perhaps you would rather a walk in the park? Hyde Park is opposite the house and it is a short cycle to Lake Monger or Kings Park. Maybe a spot of exercise? Beatty Park pool, the Loftus Fitness centre and 100s of kilometres of cycle paths are almost at your doorstep. And a thirty minute drive will see you in the historic port of Fremantle or the Swan Valley vineyards.
