PROPERTY SUMMARY
PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Properties like this are almost impossible to find – so reward yourself and your family for your success and hard work with this enviable and irreplaceable potential lifestyle, on a very private section of the Swan River, just 15 minutes from the Perth CBD. This property is so scarce it is almost irreplaceable. The house has been designed by its current owners and builder who are both “regular visitors” to Bali and were accordingly able to “build the house with such integrity using only the finest imported materials”. Wherever you look, you will see beautiful Teak and Merbau solid custom fittings which are truly priceless.
Boasting up to 7 bedrooms, this 5 year old Bali-inspired resort-style residence is located in one of the most sought after pockets of Bassendean. It offers grand tropical living only a short walk from the Swan River and close to the CBD and Airport. One of Bassendean’s best-kept secrets as the land has been in the same family for over 50 years.
Five Years ago the current owners decided to build something special and bring all the ideas and features of their many trips to Bali into the design of this amazing residence nestled in an incredibly quiet and private area with no neighbours to the side and rear, only open space and natural bushland for the future.
The owners said:
“We love Bali, so we incorporated the resort living feel into our family home. We did a lot of research and imported Balinese materials and incorporated them into the build having many of the items handmade specifically for our home,”
“We’re selling because our children are growing up and we’re downsizing so we can spend more time in Bali.”
The owners have described 148A Whitfield Street as incredibly quiet and private, with bushland and open land surrounding the property, but only 15 minutes from the CBD and so close to the airport and river.
The flowing design creates a very spacious internal area. It incorporates an open plan kitchen, dining and family living area all with Bali influences giving you the ambience of your own Balinese Resort.
The property features 7 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, off-street parking for up to 6 cars, a massive home theatre with over $20K of state of the art Yamaha and Krix equipment, home office and wait for it…A separate fully self-contained residence with over 100m2 under the roof suitable for a home business, granny flat, teenage retreat or rentable guest house. Yes, the massive double garage has been purposefully built with two bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen with a mezzanine floor and loads of storage!

Accessed by a private, secure driveway with electric gate, the property boasts over 450m2 under the roof of the main house, including a fantastic balcony and below ground pool. If you close your eyes and open them, you really are in Bali!
