This sweeping two-storey apartment in Wittenoom Street, East Perth is all uber-modern opulence and sleekness, across a sprawling 306sqm.

It’s as far removed from the deadly-dust swept ghost town the street is named after that you could possibly imagine.

Glowing timber floors and a gargantuan open-plan living/dining/kitchen greet you as you step out of the lift.

A VDO intercom means you can screen for door-to-door salespeople or those peddling salvation. Unfortunately an automated trapdoor and pit filled with spikes doesn’t come with the system: A public liability risk, apparently.

The developer/vendor built this penthouse for himself, so attention to detail and layout are second to none.

Sets of bifold doors off the living area lead out to a spacious balcony. Step up to the railing and you’re greeted by parkland and the Perth skyline.

An equally large balcony off the kitchen also has bifolds, sans the views, and is a great spot for alfresco breakfasts.

Open them all and you can host the mother-of-all parties, and still have room to spare.

The gourmet kitchen is a mouth-watering domain, with caesar stone benches, including a breakfast bar and a floor-to-ceiling pantry.

Sleek timber stairs lead to the three bedrooms and two-bathrooms including a commodious main suite, designed to pamper with a private balcony, spacious ensuite and spa.

Mere minutes from the CBD this abode offers stylish inner-city living in a quiet, leafy street, close to cafes, restaurants and shops. There are two car bays in a secure garage for sojourns to the country estate. Inner-city travel is taken care of by foot, pedalling or a CAT.
