An elegant and newly renovated home on a sprawling 1424sqm block in Dalkeith combines the best of traditional and modern living.
Nestled among tall trees typical of the suburb’s leafy character, the elegant home includes high ceilings, multiple living spaces and stunning chandeliers.
The design is modelled on the black and white homes that were once commonly found in Singapore, employing dark timbers and exposed beams, contrasted with crisp, white walls.
The kitchen has extensive built-in cabinets and a big, timber-topped island bench to form the heart of the home.
“The extensive renovations include state-of-the-art kitchen appliances, detailed ceiling roses and luxurious bathroom fixtures,” one owner said.
There’s a self-contained apartment upstairs, featuring two bedrooms, a kitchen and balcony.
The property’s outdoor wonders are just as striking, with a grand Morton Bay fig tree at the entry and a garden and fruit trees creating the feel of a tranquil rural estate.
The house is in walking distance of the Swan River, Nedlands Golf Course and the Dalkeith Village Shopping Centre.

A rare find on the 19th floor of The Towers, this opulent apartment offers striking views of the Perth cityscape, Elizabeth Quay and the Swan River.
“It’s been exciting living at Elizabeth Quay and being able to watch the development of the new hub of our great city,” one owner said.
“The view from the apartment is absolutely world class and the convenience of the location is fantastic. There are dozens of great dining options literally minutes from the door, public transport is just around the corner and it’s been great being able to watch the fireworks and drone shows from our living room window.”
Entry to the apartment, which is awash with natural light and features a modern layout, is via a private lobby and lift.
The kitchen’s features include a premium Siemens stove and a floating island breakfast bar, while both carpeted bedrooms have built-in robes.
Residents in The Towers also enjoy the resort-style gym, heated pool and deck.
And finding a parking bay in the city will no longer be an issue, with the package including two secure, covered bays as well as a storage cage to keep belongings that don’t fit upstairs.

Near-new and offering plenty of room to move, this four-bedroom house in Kardinya is right next to a park and was a labour of love for its original owner.
“This home was built by the builder for himself, and so no expense was spared on finishes,” one owner said.
“The property is low maintenance and secure, so I can take off for months at a time without having to worry.”
Built in 2020, the solar-powered house features an open-plan main living area and includes three double bedrooms, plus a study room that could be used as a fourth bedroom.
Its sparkling white kitchen with stone benchtops has barely been used and the features just keep coming, with a covered alfresco outside and attic storage. It has easy-care gardens with reticulation and a security system with cameras.
