Tucked away at the whisper quiet cul de sac and river end of the street, this delightful street front character gem has a little nostalgia and a lot of personality up its sleeve. Original high ceilings and gorgeous timber floorboards set the scene inside, where a superbly spacious front living room spills out to a breezy entry verandah overlooking the leafy, shaded frontage - the perfect spot to watch the world go by without actually having to join it. A generously proportioned and revamped open plan dining and kitchen area brings a fresh twist to the home's timeless appeal, whilst a versatile rear study, activity or sitting room is ready to become whatever your heart desires - home office, creative escape or simply somewhere to hide from the rest of the household. Outside, a splendid north facing paved entertaining courtyard comes complete with a soundtrack of chirping birdlife and ample room for that dream outdoor spa or fire pit, depending on whether your idea of relaxation involves bubbles or marshmallows. Come for the charm, stay for the serenity!

LOCATION
Hop, skip or jump to the Swan River from here, as well as beautiful Claughton Reserve and the Bayswater BMX and Mountain Bike Facility – all just footsteps away. There's really no excuse not to get outside and embrace the good life – with family barbecues, playground adventures, leisurely riverside strolls and perhaps a little two wheeled excitement for those who prefer their weekends with a side of adrenaline. When reality calls, nearby bus stops, Ashfield Train Station, major arterial roads — including Tonkin Highway — and the local industrial area make commuting and getting around a breeze, whilst schools, shopping and the buzzing cafés and restaurants of Maylands are all seamlessly accessible. Perth's vibrant CBD awaits in one direction, with Bassendean, historic Guildford, Midland and the spectacular Swan Valley's wineries and breweries tempting you in the other. Even Perth Airport is conveniently close, whether you're jetting off somewhere fabulous or collecting relatives who have conveniently forgotten how much luggage they packed. With nature on your doorstep, amenities around every corner and a world of lifestyle possibilities in between, this is a location where the great times flows as freely as the river itself — and there's always something worth raising a glass to.
