This 1,302 sqm landholding delivers one of Peppermint Grove's most revered Federation Queen Anne residences, blending heritage craftsmanship with contemporary design. 

Originally completed in 1898 by distinguished architect Sir Talbot Hobbs, The Carbrakine House has been re-envisioned by Space Agency, with interiors by Meryl Hare of Hare + Klein and gardens by Robert Finnie.

“I have the great privilege of selling many beautiful homes in the luxury market and 143 Forrest is the standout in terms of attention to detail,” Jody Fewster told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

“With Space Agency and Hare & Klein, the owners have crafted a home with quiet sophistication and beautiful spaces, seamlessly combining indoor and outdoor living. There is so much to love about the interiors - for me the light fittings imported from New York are a highlight.”

Balanced and refined interiors honour the home's origins while embracing modern family living. The material palette is tactile and sophisticated, with natural timbers, linen, leather and stone uniting the interiors in quiet harmony. Every detail has been considered, from blackened steel joinery by Angelo Petkovic to Apparatus Studio lighting from New York and Grigio Perlato marble sourced from Italy. 

Each space is layered with texture and light, achieving both warmth and architectural clarity. The formal ‘London Room’ is a picture of composure and elegance, featuring Rossetti grasscloth wallpaper, a marble fireplace and a sculptural Michael Anastassiades chandelier.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen and dining area showcases Grigio Perlato and Dekton benchtops, a custom polished-plaster rangehood and a Bai chandelier by Neri & Hu, opening effortlessly to the garden through automated linen blinds. 

Connection between indoors and outdoors is at the core of this home's design philosophy. Winner of the 2025 House & Garden Top 50 Rooms Award for Best Indoor-Outdoor Connection, the central courtyard is an architectural triumph. Designed as an outdoor lounge in direct dialogue with the surrounding gardens, it integrates seamlessly with the main living spaces. Sculptural planting, refined textures and a striking built-in BBQ make it equally suited to entertaining or quiet retreat.

Beyond the courtyard, the rear of the home opens to a shimmering freshwater pool finished in Bisazza glass mosaic tiles. Surrounded by lush landscaping and multiple alfresco zones, it provides a serene backdrop for family living and summer entertaining. 

Landscape architect Robert Finnie has crafted gardens that evolve from the formal symmetry of a British estate at the front to a soft, modern Australian aesthetic at the rear. Ancient olive trees, productive herb gardens and native sculptural forms bring texture, life and a sense of permanence to every view.

Accommodation includes three generous bedrooms plus a study or fourth bedroom. The master suite is a private retreat, complete with a luxurious marble ensuite featuring bespoke cream terracotta tiles sourced from Italy, custom robes and a sun-drenched terrace overlooking the gardens. 

The secondary bedrooms are equally refined, supported by a timeless family bathroom finished in Turkish limestone and Brodware aged-iron tapware. A quiet library and a 1,000-bottle climate-controlled EuroCave wine cellar complete the home.

While its heritage has been meticulously preserved, The Carbrakine House lives effortlessly in the present. A zoned ducted air conditioning system provides year-round comfort, while thoughtful orientation allows cross-breezes from the nearby Swan River to circulate naturally throughout. 

Positioned in one of Perth's most prestigious riverside enclaves, the home is moments from schools and Freshwater Bay Yacht Club, with the river, beaches, cafés and Claremont Quarter all within easy reach.
