Heritage-listed ‘Oak Park’ Estate hits market for first time in 12 years

Located at 21 Irvine Street, Peppermint Grove, the five-bedroom, four-bathroom heritage-listed residence is being marketed by Ray White Cottesloe | Mosman Park director Jody Fewster, with offers closing on June 23.

The property is expected to command interest circa $8 million.

Originally built circa 1915 as the residence for the local congregational church Reverend, Oak Park blends the timeless romance of Federation architecture with the sophisticated demands of 21st-century living.

For the current owner, who has called Oak Park home for the past 12 years, the property has been the backdrop to a lifetime of joy, raising four children within its walls.

"The house has always been full of laughter, fun, and antics,” the seller said.

“Our most loved space is the big kitchen bench that brings everyone together at the end of the day, while the large downstairs playroom has hosted countless sleepovers, movie nights, and footy afternoons.

“It has a warm, joyful energy and has truly been a second home to many of our children's friends.”

Beyond the front gate, the lifestyle on offer is unmatched.

Situated on a vibrant, welcoming street famous for its tight-knit community and annual Christmas street party, the home is just moments from everyday essentials.

“The ability to walk to either the river or the beach is something we’ve always appreciated,” the seller said.

“As the kids grew, the nearby train station gave them a wonderful sense of independence, while having shops, cafes, and parks just down the road made life incredibly convenient.”

Showcasing a mix of Federation Bungalow and Federation Queen Anne influences, the home’s sweeping wraparound verandahs, intricate decorative plasterwork, stunning leadlight windows, soaring ceilings, and rich jarrah floorboards have been meticulously preserved.

A high-end renovation completed approximately five years ago introduced a luxurious main suite with a private dressing room and bespoke ensuite, alongside a state-of-the-art contemporary kitchen.

Spanning two levels, the floorplan offers both grand-scale entertaining zones and private sanctuaries.

The upper level forms the heart of the home, featuring open-plan kitchen, dining, and living areas flooded with natural light.

Double doors open out to a spectacular elevated deck - a peaceful, treehouse-like sanctuary ideal for morning coffees or hosting friends for evening drinks.

The lower level is fully dedicated to recreation and relaxation.
