Oozing warmth, personality and timeless appeal, this delightful street-front 3 bedroom 1 bathroom character home proves that some classics only get better with age.
Behind its street facade lies a welcoming haven full of charm and comfort, perfectly complemented by a fantastic location where everyday conveniences are all just moments away. It's the kind of residence that steals hearts from the very first glance and will benefit from more of your own personal modern touches being added to it throughout, where you see fit.
A secure remote-controlled double lock-up carport - with a storage shed - leads into a gated front-yard area that is framed by low-maintenance gardens and a citrus tree. Ideal for kids and pets, the space is overlooked by an entry verandah that doubles as an under-cover outdoor-entertaining area.
Inside, original wooden Jarrah floorboards help preserve the home's nostalgia of yesteryear, with a huge front living room graced by feature plasterglass ceilings, a gas bayonet for heating and pleasant views of the front garden. It all leads through to an open-plan sitting, dining and renovated-kitchen area with its own feature ceilings, direct verandah access, built-in buffet storage, sleek stone bench tops, fridge plumbing, a water-filter tap and "retro" Smeg dishwasher, range-hood and five-burner gas-cooktop/oven appliances.
A spacious front master bedroom comprises of built-in wardrobes and plenty of natural morning sunlight filtering in, whilst a central and double-size second bedroom and an intimate third bedroom - with access out to a paved drying courtyard - are within arm's reach. Practical bathroom with a shower, separate bathtub, vanity and heat lamps.
The laundry has a bonus walk-in second shower, alongside double wash troughs, built-in storage and a separate toilet. The laundry also flows out to the breezy rear drying and sitting courtyard, as well as more easy-care gardens.
Nestled within the sought-after catchment zones for both Shenton College and Jolimont Primary School, this gem of a buy is mere steps away from the beautiful Henderson and Mabel Talbot Parks, The Wembley Sports Park and Gold Netball Centre around the corner, The Wembley Hotel, Cambridge Street medical facilities and a string of vibrant shops, cafes and restaurants - plus picturesque Herdsman Lake. With the freeway, our cosmopolitan Perth CBD, Subiaco, gorgeous Lake Monger, Wembley Golf Course, Bold Park, Herdsman Fresh, 24-hour IGA supermarket shopping and our pristine Western Australian coastline all mere minutes from your front doorstep in their own right, this truly is the perfect address for those wanting to live central to the action.
This is a home you'll fall in love with today - and appreciate for many years to come!
