We are told over and over when buying houses to choose the best street. It's all about location. Well, you can't beat Gordon Street.
This beautiful street's verge is edged in attractive Kurrajong shade trees and it also contains some of the nicest brick and iron homes built during the Federation era, always popular with buyers.
If you're up for a DIY project, 40 Gordon Street will be just the ticket for you. After patching a few cracks these old homes typically have and painting and a general decor makeover, you'll have a lovely 1910 brick residence complemented by other homes in the street.
There are 3 bedrooms, a lounge with sliding glass door to the side verandah, combined kitchen/meals featuring an authentic Metters stove, large store room, big bathroom with toilet and a second toilet adjacent the laundry.
A split system reverse cycle air conditioner heats and cools the lounge area and the hot water unit is an 80L electric one.
Gardens and lawns are minimal yet adequate and form a barrier from the far back yard with double lockup garage, garden shed, a few fruit trees and a driveway turn-around space to bring you car out of the garage and forward onto the street.
All this is on an easy care 801sqm block a tiny 500m or 6 minute walk from Northam's main street.
