Deb has created an incredibly thoughtful home away from home in East Perth. This compact one bedroom house has everything we needed - downstairs is the fully equipped kitchen with gas stove and dining area and comfortable lounge room, and upstairs is a study area, bathroom with laundry facilities, and, nestled in the tree tops, a bedroom with balcony.
The care taken with the details is delightful; the doors have solid security screens, and upstairs the many high windows allow the area to stay cool. The entry is from the back lane - both a gate and roller door - so we could park our hire car securely in the courtyard right outside the door. Deb provided us with a remote for this. Great outdoor lighting and a little table and chairs both on the balcony upstairs and in the courtyard downstairs means the outdoor areas can be used until late. It felt secure, cosy and private, and the little touches such as bread, home made marmalade and chocolates very welcoming.
The location was excellent. It’s two minutes to the river which offers great walking tracks in either direction. It was a quick drive to everywhere we needed to get to, and the station was right across the road (yet wasn’t loud - the distant train sounds were lovely).
Communication with Deb was easy, from the time of booking, to check in instructions which were clear and accurate. She provided maps and suggestions, and popped in to meet us, and make sure we had everything we needed, and then left us to our own devices.
What a fantastic place to stay - thank you Deb - we’d stay here again in a heart beat!
