If you’ve ever wondered what the perfect family home would look like if you weren’t held back by a budget, this City Beach mansion is it.

It is having an ensuite for every bedroom so there are never fights for the shower, it is having an entire floor dedicated to adults, another for the kids and even a wing for guests or an au pair, because why not?

The dream family home is also being absolutely ocean front so that when you do pull yourself away from such extravagant living quarters, you don’t have to go far to enjoy WA’s greatest asset.

“When we found the block on the absolute ocean front in City Beach we thought we would never be able to find a better location,” one of the owners said.

“We sent up a drone to get an idea of what the views would be for a potential new home and they were truly spectacular. We knew this was the one.”

With the quality and finish you’d expect for Giorgi, the residence truly has it all — from the double-glazed windows to the sauna, spa, pool two alfresco areas, two garages, and even two pizza ovens.

“We made sure this home had everything! We really didn’t hold back. Not to be extravagant but just to build a wonderful home for our family.”

There are a lot of perks that come with living on the edge of a national park, but the best one for the owners of this charming Jane Brook home is the wildlife that regularly visit.

The storybook two-level home complements the stunning scenery surrounding it, with nothing but greenery beyond the 1.02ha parcel of land.

“We love all the space we have in the kitchen and openness for meals and family time — in particular, all the large windows provide a connection to nature outside,” one of the owners said.

“The peace and quiet being on the edge of John Forrest National Park means we have lots of friendly kangaroo neighbours plus the occasional echidna or goanna - which our daughter loves spotting when they are grazing outside.”

The Summit Homes-built residence includes a well-appointed kitchen with a scullery, an alfresco entertaining area with pull-down shade screens and a concrete mineral salt pool for serene swims surrounded by nature.

Additionally, the property is fully fenced with electronic front gates, which are remote and app controlled.

It’s not just Perth’s explosive property value growth that has made it the envy of the nation, it’s that despite this buyers can still find brand new properties within 12km of the CBD for less than $1 million.

Few Australian capitals would have a newly-built townhouse, also just a 15 minute drive to the beach and 20 minutes to the airport, at the price point of this Westminster abode.

Additionally, it has plenty of space with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and offers plenty of privacy being tucked away from the street front.

For the owners, the stand-out features include the floating staircase, a skylight above the stairs which brings in plenty of natural light and the oversized master suite.

The modern two-storey abode also has high ceilings throughout, stone benchtops in the kitchen and ducted air-conditioning.

With a range of schools and shopping nearby, the home proves Perth still does represent great value for money for buyers compared to other major capitals.
