2 Glasnevin Court, Waterford, WA, 6152, Australia

The complete package, this magnificent residence in riverside Waterford offers an idyllic sanctuary for your family to create lasting memories.

Located opposite leafy Bodkin Park, with only the lake and conservation reserve separating you from the river's edge, the beautifully appointed 5-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home occupies a sprawling 851sqm corner block framed by established gardens.

The double-storey, rendered brick and tile elevation is both impressive and welcoming, with its arched portico entrance and first and second-level terraces facing the adjacent parklands. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by glossy porcelain tiling, a soaring entry void and an elegant Tasmanian Oak staircase with wrought-iron balustrading.

The lower level is all about versatility. It includes three secondary bedrooms with built-in robes, including a spacious guest suite with a fully-tiled semi-ensuite bathroom, a study with custom-made cabinetry (potential for a fifth bedroom), and two separate living zones. The games/theatre room offers an ideal space for movie nights and gaming, and the sunken front lounge is a restful place to entertain guests by the integrated gas fireplace or spend precious family time together. An additional 'sun room' with terracotta floor tiles and access to the rear courtyard would be perfect as an extra sitting/reading area or a quiet spot for kids' homework.

Entertaining will be a breeze with gorgeous granite benchtops, quality European appliances, ample storage, and a walk-in pantry in the well-equipped kitchen. You have a clear view of the tiled alfresco terrace, pretty front gardens, inviting saltwater swimming pool and the picturesque parklands and lake beyond.

The upstairs adults' retreat is a haven for busy parents. Everything you need to unwind is at your fingertips - a private living area with a bar, an indulgent spa ensuite with granite benchtops, a frameless shower and separate WC, and dual walk-in robes. Fix your favourite drink and enjoy the plethora of local birdlife and breathtaking park and lake aspect from your tiled balcony - bliss!

In addition to the pool, there's plenty of room for kids and pets to play safely in the enclosed front lawn and gardens, which feature mature crepe myrtles, magnolias, frangipani and Manchurian pears. A covered courtyard with a tranquil water feature and fishpond hugs the home's western boundary and includes a large paved area for your small boat, camper trailer, or caravan.

There are so many options here for your growing family! Additional features include an internal alarm system, ducted air conditioning throughout, double lock-up garage, a large garden shed, fruit trees including fig and citrus, and reticulation from a bore. There's also heaps of storage - a 'must have' on everyone's list of non-negotiables!

This tiny riverside suburb is a hidden gem yet boasts proximity to premium sporting and leisure facilities, desirable private schools, including Aquinas and Penrhos Colleges, Curtin University and fantastic shopping and dining amenities at Waterford Plaza. Enjoy scenic nature trails, the local Clontarf weekend farmers market and easy access to major retail outlets at Westfield Booragoon and Carousel shopping Centres and the CBD.
