WITH his and hers garages and possibly the world’s smallest office, this Regent Street Mt Lawley home is an interesting package.

The three-bedroom/two-bathroom abode is one of four elegant federation-style townhouses in a quiet tree-lined avenue, just off Beaufort Street.

Just a few years old they exude an old-world charm, with all the convenience of modern living for today’s family.

Secure gating leads up a pleasant hedged-garden path to a covered portico sheltering the front door.

Step inside and the whisper-quiet entry soars overhead to a mezzanine with a very Mt Lawley/federation white-painted circular timber railing (stops the kids tumbling down and scaring the visitors).

This delightful home offers classic style, with low maintenance.

Doors flanking the entry hall lead to twin garages either side of the home, one for him, one for her.

A third door nearby opens to reveal a spacious storage area, cleverly turned into the pocket-sized office from which the builder/vendor operates his business.

As you’d expect from a very modern home the living spaces are open plan, a generous area with banks of windows/doors onto a delightfully lush, and private walled-garden.

Sitting on just 223sqm the pint-sized block manages several good sized trees, showing birds don’t have to go homeless in the push for density.

The pleasant garden is so sheltered I’m betting dining under the cathedral-roofed patio is possible just about all year.

But with so much glass, sitting inside won’t feel like being cooped up.

The kitchen is compact but spacious enough for the most demanding of chefs, with two pantries and plenty of timber-fronted cupboards and drawers, and lovely brown-flecked granite tops.

The bedrooms are upstairs, off a mezzanine second sitting room, where light floods in from a massive arched, and decorative window over the stairs, and there’s access to a small balcony.

Two bedrooms face the street, each with a bay window and plantation shutters, while the parents’ wing is at the rear, also with a bay window seat and shutters.

Close the connecting door and all is peace and quiet for mum and dad to enjoy a spacious ensuite, with spa and shower, and a huge bedroom.

This delightful home offers classic style, with low maintenance.

It’s just a stone’s throw from the prestigious Perth College, and the fantastic Mt Lawley cafe strip is a short five-minute drive away.
