Opportunities of this calibre are exceptionally rare. Set high on Claremont Hill and surrounded by some of the suburb's most distinguished heritage homes, part of the original Grange Farm Estate,a commanding 1928 character residence that represents one of the most significant offerings to come to market in recent years. Elevated, private and rich in design presence, the home blends enduring heritage gravitas with a meticulously executed contemporary transformation, delivering a level of completeness, craftsmanship and liveability seldom achieved at this scale. From its prized vantage point, the residence enjoys open sky, mature treetops and a profound sense of prestige-an address that quietly announces its importance.

From its elevated vantage point, the residence enjoys a rare feeling of openness and light, framed by established gardens and the architectural rhythm of surrounding grand homes. The setting is both stately and deeply liveable-a place where history, design and modern family life intersect effortlessly.

Completed in March 2024, the home has been transformed under the guidance of an owner with a truly remarkable eye for design, where instinct, restraint and artistry converge. In collaboration with Wandoo Building Company, every element has been thoughtfully reimagined-from floors and ceilings to services and outdoor spaces-resulting in a residence of exceptional craftsmanship and harmony, where modern luxury is beautifully layered into the home's original 1928 character.

From the moment you arrive, the entrance and gardens set a captivating tone-a richly layered tapestry of greens, greys and soft whites that feels both curated and natural. The verandah, finished with striking chequerboard feature tiles, overlooks the lawn and offers a perfect vantage point for afternoon sunsets, while children move freely between home and neighbours, lending the street a rare sense of community. Private and secluded, the front of the home unfolds like a sanctuary-quietly enchanting, and almost magical.

The best is yet to come. Inside, you are greeted by a grand hallway illuminated by statementRalph Laurenfeature pendants, immediately setting a tone of refined elegance. The formal lounge unfolds seamlessly beyond, showcasing exquisiteoriginal coffered ceilingsfrom the period, a beautiful bay window, and generous proportions that invite both tradition and togetherness. It is a space perfectly suited to unwrapping Christmas gifts by the tree or hosting formal drinks with friends-timeless, gracious and effortlessly welcoming.

To the left of the hallway, three generously proportioned bedrooms reflect the home's original grandeur, each featuring built-in robes and beautiful character details of the era. Two of the bedrooms share a substantial interconnecting bathroom, finished inNew Saviour stoneand anchored by a freestanding bath. A white-clad ceiling adds a sense of light and understated elegance, creating a bathroom that feels both timeless and refined.

A third bathroom is located on the ground floor, thoughtfully appointed as a powder and guest bathroom and finished with strikingEmerald Quartz, adding a subtle note of colour and sophistication.

Entering the modern extension, you are immediately drawn into an expansive102sqm of open-plan living, where space, light and craftsmanship converge. French-laidPacific Bluestonefloors ground the room with quiet strength, while strikingArabescatto Vagli marblebenchtops and handcrafted black steel doors introduce architectural drama beneath soaring ceilings. Just beyond, the butler's pantry reveals preservedoriginal limestone walls dating back to circa 1895-a quietly remarkable detail that anchors the contemporary design to Claremont's early history and reflects the extraordinary depth of thought behind every decision. This is the true heart of the home, created for the Australian way of life, where entertaining, openness and natural light are celebrated, yet the atmosphere remains calm, private and beautifully balanced.

The handcrafted black steel French doors open to a beautifully styled alfresco, anchored by an open fireplace-perfect for winter evenings spent roasting marshmallows beneath the stars. A sculptural concrete ceiling curves gently overhead, featuring a distinctive rounded-square opening that frames the night sky, creating a magical setting in cooler months. In summer, the focus shifts to the built-in BBQ and effortless outdoor entertaining, while children move freely across the expansive lawn to the heated pool or retreat to the undercover double garage via side ROW access. Cleverly designed with drop-down storage above, the garage offers exceptional practicality while maintaining a sense of order and ease.

Upstairs, the home unfolds into a dedicated master retreat designed to feel both expansive and private. A striking feature louvre window draws in light and air, while a refined study area with bay green cabinetry adds depth and character. A flexible fifth bedroom-equally suited as a third living space for late-night films-enhances the sense of retreat. The master bedroom itself is beautifully appointed with bespoke built-in cabinetry, louvred windows, and a wraparound balcony that captures city glimpses, treetop outlooks across surrounding heritage homes, and an abundance of northern light. With a generous walk-in robe and every detail thoughtfully resolved, this level offers a sense of completeness that is both indulgent and effortless.

Additional features include ducted heating and cooling throughout, supported by the home's original limestone and double-brick construction which naturally moderates temperature, gas fireplaces in both living areas, handmade black steel French doors, salvaged and custom timber doors, Italian flax linen curtains with block-out lining upstairs, premium Italian leather banquette seating, wool loop-pile carpets, terracotta roof replacement, restored original plaster ceilings using traditional horsehair and sand techniques, 32 solar panels, extensive storage, a double garage with a generous storage loft, plus a bike shed and gated bin area.

Rarely does a home of such calibre, history and craftsmanship come to market. Grange Farm is an inspired fusion of character, luxury and lifestyle-an enduring family residence in one of Claremont's most tightly held locations and superbly positioned on the boarder of Cottesloe and Swanbourne. This is not simply a house, but a legacy property, offering a way of living that is both deeply rooted and effortlessly refined.
