Overview

SOLD!

VERSATILITY. VINTAGE APPEAL. Full of charm, character and options galore, this delightfully-renovated 3 bedroom 1 bathroom treasure comes with a fabulous bonus - a fully self-contained 1 bed 1 bath rear studio that opens up a world of possibility. Whether it's extra space for family, an income-earning opportunity or the perfect creative hideaway, the flexibility here is irresistible. The separate studio can be found at the end of its own long driveway and has already been approved for Airbnb-type short-term accommodation. Its own open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is as functional as they come. The separate bedroom is large, whilst the separate fully-tiled bathroom-cum-laundry plays host to a walk-in rain/hose shower, toilet and powder vanity/wash trough. There is also ample parking space for boats, caravans and trailers across both of the property's driveways. A massive entry deck overlooks the front yard and is the ideal place on which to relax and unwind, before stepping into a spacious and welcoming open-plan living, dining and kitchen space where you are first introduced to solid wooden floorboards and feature decorative ceiling cornices of yesteryear. There, you will also discover an island breakfast bar, pendant light fittings, a double-door storage pantry, tiled splashbacks, double sinks, a five-burner gas cooktop and quality stainless-steel dishwasher, range-hood and under-bench-oven appliances. The bedrooms are all large, but the master is the most generous - boasting built-in wardrobes, in the process. The stylish fully-tiled bathroom plays host to an over-size walk-in rain shower and twin-vanity basins, whilst the separate laundry has decent storage cupboard and a separate toilet. Both the kitchen and laundry spaces open out to a dream backyard setting, where a fabulous outdoor alfresco-entertaining area stunningly overlooks a shimmering below-ground swimming pool and a separate bubbling spa. With lots of room for the kids to play in between, it truly is the perfect oasis for the entire family. Stroll leisurely to lush green local parklands, bus stops, medical facilities and the popular Blend Café and Pizza Bar just around the corner on Marmion Street, with the gorgeous Kadidjiny Park also nearby - and both Melville Primary School and Melville Senior High School very much within arm's reach themselves. Additional public transport, shopping (including at Westfield Booragoon and Woolworths Melville), our picturesque Swan River and even Fremantle are all so easily accessible from this sought-after and convenient location, as well. Bursting with personality and timeless warmth, this is a home that feels good from the moment you step inside - and even better when you realise just how many ways you can make it your own!
