Lee Smith & Bourkes are proud to present 186 Hensman Street - a rare landholding in Kensington's prized Golden Triangle, right on the South Perth border and walking distance to Wesley College and the Angelo Street village. Opportunities of this calibre are tightly held and seldom offered.
Set on a 512m² green-title lot with the rear boundary abutting a right-of-way, this property delivers the perfect canvas for your future vision. Whether you decide to design and build your dream home, renovate and re-work the existing 1940s residence, or simply secure a premium parcel in one of the suburb's most sought-after pockets, the upside here is undeniable.
A north-facing rear ensures ideal solar orientation for future extensions or new construction, while the wide street frontage and quiet tree-lined surroundings contribute to the lifestyle that makes this location so coveted.
Inside, the original home offers three bedrooms, a central bathroom, a functional kitchen and multiple living zones including a family room, dining area and enclosed patio that provides immediate useability while you plan your next steps. There is also a separate carport, and generous outdoor areas front and back.
But make no mistake - the true value lies in the land, location and lifestyle.
A short 1.5km walk places you in the heart of the Angelo Street café and retail precinct, home to Coles, boutique shops, two gyms and the iconic Angelo Street Market delicatessen. Wesley College, Penrhos, Curtin University, the Swan River foreshore and a range of parks and transport links are all close by.
Opportunities to secure land in this exclusive pocket are rare - and even rarer with dual access and northern rear orientation.
This is Kensington at its very best: position, potential and lifestyle.
