5A Hamersley St, Cottesloe WA 6011

There is a walk-in linen press/storeroom on this floor too, preceding a huge master retreat - playing host to a fully-tiled powder room with a stone vanity, separate "his and hers" fitted walk-in robes, a giant bedroom area with an open fully-tiled ensuite (with a large shower and twin stone-vanity basins) and access out on to a delightful timber-lined balcony with plenty of cover and protection from the elements, as well as its own slice of the sweeping sea vista beyond white plantation bi-fold shutters.

The wildcard in the layout though is the separate apartment-come-third bedroom suite that has its own gated front access (also with a pin-code for convenience) via a paved entertaining courtyard, capturing all of the morning sunshine and even boasting its own built-in umbrella. Double doors also connect it to an open-plan living, meals and kitchen area with quality bench tops, a stainless-steel range hood, a Euromaid gas cooktop/oven and a sleek white Omega dishwasher.

A laundry/storage area off this zone leads into a spacious - and newly-carpeted - third-bedroom wing with its own fully-tiled ensuite/third bathroom and lockable access door to the main house. This extra accommodation is perfect for all types of buyers, whether it be families or those interest in short-stay/Airbnb-style rentals.

Upstairs, gleaming Bamboo floorboards warm a generous lounge/study area that sits behind a sliding door and features a built-in desk/multi-person workstation and access out on to a massive alfresco balcony with a pleasant tree-lined street aspect to savour. On the other side of the level, a commodious open-plan kitchen, dining and family area is where most of your casual time will be spent - complete with more cathedral-like ceilings, a fully-tiled powder area, sparkling stone bench tops, a water-filter tap, a stainless-steel range hood, Miele gas cooktops, an Electrolux Gallery oven, a white Miele dishwasher, a computer nook and a scullery.

The enormous alfresco-entertaining balcony off the family room is arguable the best vantage point of all, taking in the ocean views and magical sunsets over famous Rottnest Island, beyond two sets of striking double doors. The home's lower level plays host to a huge carpeted theatre room, that can be whatever you want it to be. A timber-lined wine room can also be found down here, along with a functional laundry and an over-sized remote-controlled double lock-up garage with roller-door access to a large powered workshop, an indoor clothesline and private vehicular access via Delamare Lane. There are even two extra driveway parking bays in front of the garage, as well as a hot/cold outdoor shower - and another clothesline - down the side of the house.

The lovely Grant Marine Park sits just footsteps away at the top of the street, with sunset drinks at the Ocean Beach Hotel in the opposite direction. The local outdoor gym, playground, cafes and restaurants that run alongside glorious Cottesloe Beach itself are all only walking distance from your front door, as well.

Don't forget about the close proximity to Grant Street Train Station, the fabulous local institution that is Daisies, the Cottesloe IGA supermarket, the lush Allen Park fields, the iconic North Street Store, North Cottesloe Primary School, golf courses, shopping at Cottesloe Central and the vibrant Claremont Quarter precinct, highly-regarded private schools, our picturesque Swan River, Fremantle and everything in between. Whether you're entertaining, relaxing or adapting the space to suit your lifestyle, this coastal sanctuary has it all!
