Character, Charm & Endless Potential in the Heart of South Perth

Set behind a private brick wall and gated entry on a prime parcel of land, this charming character residence enjoys a sought-after position in the heart of South Perth, directly opposite South Perth Primary School and just moments from the river, café precincts and all the lifestyle benefits this prestigious riverside suburb has to offer. A character home with a quirky appeal, this three-bedroom, one-bathroom home welcomes you from the front verandah into a traditional hallway showcasing beautiful timber flooring underfoot. Positioned on either side of the hallway are two bedrooms, both featuring elegant French doors that enhance the home's charm. Further along, the living room is filled with natural light and features a fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming space to relax. French doors open to allow an abundance of sunlight and fresh air, while the third bedroom is conveniently positioned nearby. At the rear of the home, the kitchen and dining area form the heart of the residence. Bathed in natural light from an abundance of windows, this space enjoys an almost atrium-like feel while overlooking the backyard and revealing a delightful surprise, a below-ground swimming pool. The bathroom is conveniently located adjacent to the kitchen, while the laundry is neatly concealed behind concertina doors, maximising functionality and space. Step outside to an elevated decked patio where you can relax amongst the treetops and enjoy views across the backyard and sparkling pool below - the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends or simply unwinding in complete privacy. Whether you're looking to move straight in, renovate, extend or build your dream home in the future, this is a rare opportunity to secure a valuable piece of real estate in one of Perth's most desirable riverside suburbs. A prime South Perth opportunity not to be missed. Council Rates: $2,584.86 pa Water Rates: $1,300.22 pa
