Set within Mount Lawley's established streetscape, this 1913 weatherboard cottage offers a level of privacy and security that reshapes how the home is lived in day to day. Outdoor areas feel contained and usable, with space for children and pets to move freely, while the outlook remains inward and calm.
Beyond the entry, the home settles into its own environment. The verandah introduces the character immediately, with turned posts, decorative timber fretwork and leadlight detailing continuing through the interior.
Bedrooms are positioned toward the front of the home, where proportions reflect the era. The main bedroom carries height and detail through picture rails and ceiling work, accompanied by a fully renovated ensuite with bath and shower, along with a fitted robe. The second bedroom extends beyond its original footprint, connecting through to a study before opening outward again via French doors to the garden. It is a layout that allows the room to shift depending on how it is needed.
The lounge brings a sense of warmth to the home, offering a place to step away without feeling disconnected. It works just as easily as part of the everyday routine as it does when the house is quieter.
The kitchen connects directly to this space, well equipped with stone benchtops, stainless steel appliances and a walk in pantry. It supports daily use without drawing attention to itself, while still allowing movement through to dining and out to the deck.
Separate dining sits alongside, creating a more defined space for meals and gathering, with bifold doors opening outward so the deck becomes part of it without effort.
A second bathroom and European laundry are positioned within this section of the home, integrated in a way that supports function without interrupting the living spaces.
Outdoor living becomes more prominent here. The covered deck extends from the dining area, overlooking a garden that has been carefully maintained, with recycled brick paving carried throughout and greenery shaping each edge. It is a space that holds its own whether used regularly or occasionally.
At the rear, a double garage accessed via right of way provides secure parking and storage, leaving the front of the home dedicated to garden and arrival.
This part of Mount Lawley keeps everyday routines close to home. Shearn Park is nearby for open space and regular walks, while Maylands Station provides a straightforward link into the city. Beaufort Street draws you in for evenings out, while Whatley Crescent offers cafes, small retailers and neighbourhood bars that become part of everyday life.
