Set in one of Floreat’s most tightly held and family-friendly pockets, 28 Hornsey Road offers the perfect blend of character, space, and lifestyle convenience. This much-loved 1950s home has been thoughtfully extended over the years to meet the needs of modern family living - all while retaining its timeless charm. Located at the quiet cul-de-sac end of the street, it’s the kind of neighbourhood where kids can play out the front and neighbours stop for a chat.
Positioned on a generous 789sqm landholding, the home delivers flexible living with four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two distinct living zones - including a spacious family room with a study nook and cosy pot belly stove, perfect for winter nights. Timber floorboards, high ceilings, and decorative cornices echo the warmth and character of its original era, while large windows in the main living area invite garden views and natural light.
The backyard is a true haven for families, featuring an expansive lawn, a Kaffir Plum tree with cubby treehouse, a row of thriving camellias that burst into colour with a lovely seasonal display and plenty of room to kick a footy, play hide and seek, or even add a swimming pool in the future. An alfresco BBQ area and reticulated gardens complete the outdoor offering, making entertaining and weekend relaxation a breeze.
Comfort has been well considered with ducted air-conditioning and a reverse cycle split system, while a double carport provides secure off-street parking. This home is located within walking distance of Floreat Park Primary School, the Floreat Forum and McLean Oval, and falls within the catchment for highly sought-after Shenton College. Public transport, parks, and local amenities are all nearby - offering a lifestyle of connection and ease.
Neat, welcoming, and ready to move into, this is a rare opportunity to secure a quality family home in one of Floreat’s most desirable pockets - with room to grow, renovate, or simply enjoy for years to come.
