12 Kings PlacePerth, PH2 8AA

12 Kings Place is an impressive late Victorian villa which overlooks Perth’s South Inch Park. The property has a distinctive Italianate style and commands quite a presence. Its pleasing symmetrical façade is characterised by elegant, large arched windows, and twin flights of steps lead up to its smart entrance which is above street level. The front door is beautifully framed by a carved stone arch.

The principal living rooms at 12 Kings Place are at the front of the property on either side of the reception hall. Southerly light streams into these rooms through the bay windows, and the sitting room has a wood burning stove and a wall of decorative panelling. While the style and colouring of the room is contemporary, the grand proportions, windows and cornicework are all original. The dining kitchen, which was once two separate rooms, has a spacious dining area by the bay window and a recently fitted, sophisticated kitchen with a large central island and brushed brass ironmongery and fittings. A woodburning stove in the dining area provides a cosier atmosphere in the cooler months. From the sitting room there is access to the garden room. This versatile room would make a great study, playroom or studio. It also has a wood burning stove and access to the garden. A neat flight of steps up to a bedroom and shower room above mean that this section of the house could work well as an independent annexe if desired. Additional practical rooms on the ground floor at 12 Kings Place include a utility room, cloakroom and storage space. There is also access to a cellar.

On the first floor there are three large double bedrooms and two smaller bedrooms which are currently used as a gym and study. On the middle landing there is a bathroom with a luxurious free-standing bath, whilst on the main landing there is a stunning, contemporary walk-in shower room with dual sinks and stylish brass detailing.

Outside
A pretty landscaped garden is laid out to the west of the house. It is entirely enclosed by hedging and a stone wall. Fruit trees have been planted against the wall, and a gravel path leads to a decked area with a summer house which is ideal for sitting out in the summer. To the front of the house there is space to park two cars off the street.

Outbuildings
A small courtyard at the rear of the house provides access to a useful store and workshop, both served with light, power and water.
