Acclaimed architect Michael Patroni brings New York loft-style living to Perth in the form of this sublime 129sqm, 2 bedroom 1 bathroom, plus converted top floor study, tri-level townhouse residence that was originally part of the historic ‘Boans Warehouse’ building before it underwent a residential conversion in the late 1990s.
Soaring ceilings with huge roof truss beams running through converted industrial spaces will capture your imagination almost immediately, here. This award-winning transformed development creates a mix of open areas and contemporary living within the initial walls of the old warehouse.
Downstairs, gleaming wooden floorboards both soften and warm a welcoming open-plan living, dining and kitchen area with access to the powder room. A large enclosed entertaining courtyard benefits from soaring double-height walls for peace and privacy.
Back inside, the stylish kitchen plays host to sparkling stone bench tops, glass splashbacks, sleek white cabinetry and quality stainless-steel range-hood, gas-cooktop, oven and dishwasher appliances. Upstairs, the two bedrooms have ascending spaces between the dramatic roof trusses that run through the building.
The combined bathroom/laundry in between has been completely refreshed and includes a shower, powder vanity, toilet and more. Both bedrooms have timber flooring too, with the master boasting its own tranquil balcony that overlooks the courtyard down below. It also has a ladder leading up to the loft, or study nook, that can be whatever you want it to be.
A short stroll to our vibrant CBD complements convenient access to the free CAT bus service, further public transport at Claisebrook Train Station, the Claisebrook Cove shopping, restaurant and inlet precinct, our picturesque Swan River itself, the popular new Perth Girls School precinct, the exciting Wellington Square redevelopment, the new world-class Optus Stadium, the footbridge to the stunning Crown Towers, casino and entertainment complex and everything else that urban East Perth has to offer.
As far as low-maintenance, recently upgraded and high-security lifestyles go, you will struggle to find one better than this!
