HOME TOUR 116 Broome Street COTTESLOE Words MAYA ANDERSON Walking down Broome Street and opening the front gate, you are greeted by the gentle scent of jasmine that winds around the terrace pillars of this stately three storey home which has long drawn admiring glances from passers-by. An original limestone and brick cottage built in the 1940s and later thoughtfully extended, the residence has since been completely restored, renovated and fully landscaped. Renowned local architect Meaghan White completed the design for this stunning renovation. The timeless elevation features archways, terraces, balconies and paned windows. Complemented by tall palm trees and lush tropical landscaping, the result is an individual architectural style that brings to mind grand Colonial residences and the classic old Hollywood homes of Los Feliz. Character is an inherent part of the fabric of this home. The interiors feature 100-year-old jarrah panelling and joinery reclaimed from the iconic Parker and Parker Law Firm in the former SGIO building, brass thresholds, solid brushed brass fixtures and charming bank entry doors.
