Superbly situated on a sprawling 906sqm (approx.) block just footsteps from beautiful Swan River’s edge, this largely-original 3 bedroom 1 bathroom home is bursting at the seams with potential and has only ever had the one owner for the past 63 years. In immaculate condition, this property’s solid foundations are sure to set you and your family up for a lifetime of happiness in one way or another.
The wildcard in the floor plan is a double under-croft lock-up garage with a cement roof, virtually acting as a dual-purpose space and making for a perfect teenager’s retreat, games room or second living area with backyard access. Up above it lies a carpeted family/lounge room that is huge in size and plays host to a built-in bar, a heater and both front and rear access doors – great for adults to relax in while the kids are at play downstairs.
Welcoming you inside though is a carpeted front dining room with a heater of its own, leading through to the separate kitchen and casual-meals area. There, you will find a skylight, a Fisher and Paykel electric cooktop, a Westinghouse oven and low-maintenance flooring that spills into a functional laundry or wet area just behind. Off here, a versatile storeroom or study can be whatever you want it to be.
The laundry also enjoys access to an enclosed alfresco that doubles entertainment options away from the separate patio beyond the garage. The north-facing backyard is massive and has both lawns and a garden shed. It remains somewhat of a “blank canvas” where its chicken coops and a large second shed and lean-to can easily be removed to make way for something special – a swimming pool, workshop or even a “granny flat” just some of the ideas to surely get those creative juices flowing.
Walk to the Cyril Jackson Senior Campus from here, with the residence also nestled close to a plethora of picturesque local parklands, Bassendean Primary School, Ashfield Primary School, the Cyril Jackson Recreation Centre, bus stops, the Bassendean and Ashfield Train Stations, bars, eateries, Bassendean Shopping Centre, Guildford, the vibrant Old Perth Road strip, Perth Airport and even our wonderful Swan Valley. Renovate and renew what exists here or detonate and start afresh to build your dream family abode. Your destiny lies in your own hands!
