Peppermint slice of Perth’s finest

Canadian and Australian housing design influences are evident in this palatial three-level home at 39 Keane Street, Peppermint Grove, which was created for a family of six moving back home in Perth after more than 10 years in Vancouver.

This award-winning modern resort style mansion was conceived in Canada while it’s owners were working overseas.

Mining professional Simon Jackson and his wife Donna, plus their four children and their dog called Whistler, have loved their home - best characterised as a modern resort style mansion but now is the time to downsize and the home is for sale through elite agent Jody Fewster at Ray White Cottesloe | Mosman Park.

Their home is built on a 1,818 sqm site there are three storeys of absolute luxury and 1100sqm of living space and an epic outdoors area with views to the Swan River and city.

Outdoor features include a built-in heater, barbecue, wood-fired pizza oven, drawer fridge, built-in Esky-style drinks cooler and ice-maker, all positioned to take in views across the backyard and neighbouring properties to the Swan River and city.

The house has been named a finalist in a slew of awards and won the 2015 HIA Perth Outdoor Project of the Year Winner and 2015 HIA Perth Outdoor Project $100,001 and over.

Towards the rear of the home you pass the upper level garage, laundry room, drop zone and a craft room before you enter the huge informal living space featuring an amazing kitchen with Wolf and Sub Zero appliances and a huge butlers kitchen with additional cold storage and food preparation facilities.

The space includes casual dining and then continues past two separate living rooms and the internal stairwell out to a huge tiled balcony featuring a gas fireplace and a separate kitchen with a BBQ and pizza oven as well as ice making machine, fridges and food prep area.

“We wanted a family home that was large enough for four kids and we loved to host parties and we needed a great entertaining area,” Mrs Jackson said.

“We had a fantastic build experience, our builder sent us weekly updates from the site manager and my Dad would always pop down to the site.

“The house is made for the outdoors lifestyle in a great community. We are downsizing as our older kids are off to university.”

Jody Fewster, Director at Ray White Cottesloe | Mosman Park said buyers would love the soaring ceiling heights and scale of this home.

“The home is flooded with northern light and has a great indoor outdoor flow. This is a party house that the whole family can enjoy,” Ms Fewster said.

“Being only a few metres from Peppermint Grove Tennis Club, and minutes away from the new Freshwaters cafe and Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club mean the surrounding area offers great amenity to the next lucky family.”

The property is for sale via an expressions of interest campaign closing February 27, 2020, unless sold prior.
