217 Jones Street, Balcatta

Bella Balcatta

If the number three is lucky for you this lovely two-storey Balcatta home may be the answer. It boasts three bedrooms, three bathrooms, three living areas and three courtyards with three shade cloths. One of the courtyards is north-facing as is the upstairs balcony which overlooks the Balcatta cricket club.

You enter the home into a north facing lounge/dining room which opens onto a sun-filled courtyard. Turning left you come into the kitchen with large island and a family area which could be an alternative dining room. One of the three bedrooms, with a built in robe and an adjoining bathroom is downstairs, and there is a shopper’s entry from the large double garage into the laundry, adjacent to which is a dedicated dog room big enough for two of your four-legged friends to sleep in comfort. There is a dog door out to the front courtyard.
Back in the lounge room, a staircase leads up to the surprising second storey. This house is a Tardis – bigger on the inside. On the northern side is the master bedroom with a spacious walk-in wardrobe and bathroom with bath and shower.

The upstairs lounge is currently used as a home office, but could just as easily be a library, or lounge with TV. It has a lovely balcony with views over to Jones/Paskin reserve.
The second double bedroom upstairs could be another Master suite, as it has an adjoining room currently used as a TV room. It has a solar tube to let in free sunlight, and could easily work as a study or nursery. This bedroom has a large bathroom and a very big walk-in wardrobe.

The layout of this home is extremely flexible and could be changed to meet your needs over time. It may appeal to a young family as it’s walking distance to Takiari and West Balcatta primary schools and Balcatta High. It may also suit a family with teenage or adult at-home students who need their own space. It would also appeal to someone who works from home. For city workers, two different bus routes in Paskin and Cedric streets go to Stirling station.
