SCOTTISH street names are sprinkled throughout Menora and include the likes of Clyde, Dumbarton, and Inverness, which literally means the mouth of the River Ness, home of the Loch Ness monster.
There’s nothing mythical about this modern two-storey abode which sits on 814sqm, but it certainly has monster proportions.
A sweeping curved balcony and deco-like facades provide a polite nod to the suburb’s beautiful art deco-era homes.
Inside, soaring spaces abound and include an open-plan area with two lounge/family spaces, each with doors leading to the garden and lap pool.
The huge kitchen is enough to make a grown chef cry, with a walk-in pantry, a sweep of drawers and cupboards, a huge island bench and a computer nook to catch up with the latest cooking shows online.
A triangular wall of glass reaching into the huge water feature/pond transforms the dining area into a magical space.
But with these wonderfully balmy nights the pool cabana and barbecue kitchen are sure to lure the family outdoors.
Generous
When it comes to child’s play there’s a swathe of grass in the generous garden, and a private parkland through a rear gate, accessible only to those living along the row.
Two of the four bedrooms are on the ground floor, each queen-size and with built-in robes.
Head upstairs and you’ll find the parents’ suite, where a vast sitting room overlooks the downstairs living spaces, through a stylish stainless steel balustrade.
Tennis anyone? Alexander Park Tennis Club, home of the WA championships, is across the road and from the balcony you’d just about get centre court views.
The expansive main bedroom has a walk-in robe and a huge ensuite. The fourth bedroom nearby is just the shot for a nursery, or turn it into a study.
I reckon the formal lounge with its own bathroom on the ground floor would make a great guest suite.
Leafy Inverness Street is close to the Mt Lawley Golf Club, senior high school and Edith Cowan University, and the vibrant Beaufort Street cafe strip is just up the road.
