26 Willis Street, EAST VICTORIA PARK

Land Size: 430 sqm

Vision Splendid

When an Engineer and an Artist create a home on one of East Victoria Park’s favourite streets, you better believe it’s going to be very special!

26 Willis Street is the story of two visionary humans, who have injected years of passion, and attention to detail, to give another life to an original 1920’s worker’s cottage.

This 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home has been transformed, reconstructed and recast in a whimsical ode to the old, whilst still finding all the solutions to modern day living.

Framed by a dramatic corbelled archway that stretches across the room, the dining and kitchen ‘great room’ is as mind blowingly magnificent, as it is warm and welcoming.
Bespoke cabinetry, acres of Brazilian Arabescato quartzite solid stone bench-tops, plus premium Miele, De Dietrich, Qasair and Liebherr appliances make this Hollywood space an incredibly practical hub of the home.
Integrated fridge and dishwasher, sleek induction cooktop and feature 1930’s style glass pendant lamps ensure that this statement room is perfectly executed.
The counter point of the original kitchen fireplace, complete with a restored wood fired cast iron enameled oven, is a poignant reminder of the home’s long history and a simpler past.

Perfectly connected to the indoors, bifold doors (with retractable fly screens) open up the outdoor living and decked alfresco living to the kitchen.
With the jarrah flooring flowing to the outside and the charming pressed tin ceiling of the alfresco space, this is a natural extension of your indoor living.
In quintessential Western Australian style the red brick paved entertaining area boasts festoon lighting, a pizza oven, Napoleon inbuilt gas BBQ with rotisserie, and an outdoor sink (with hot & cold water), all set into robust concrete benchtops.
Your housewarming party really will be one to remember!

With two bedrooms on the ground floor, a separate formal living room, another two bedrooms upstairs, and a versatile second living space, this home offer amenity in spades.

The generous main bedroom on the first floor can be flooded with light, or be as dark and private as you require.
Block out drapery, double glazing, combined with dark paint makes this a shift worker’s dream.
Opening to its own dressing room and opulent ensuite bathroom this really is a room to escape the madding crowd.
The deep bath is just right for long luxuriating soaks.
