This charming home in the Kelmscott foothills has a rich history and is an icon of the Heritage Precinct (although it is not heritage listed). Surrounded by mature trees, this home has been used for many purposes over the years including consulting rooms, school classrooms and home to some of the original Kelmscott families and is now available to be your new home!
Sitting on 648sqm, the solid brick and tile home has been lovingly updated and maintained over the years and is ready to be lived in immediately.
THE HOUSE
Constructed in the 1940's, the three bedroom home has all the hallmark traits of this era; soaring ceilings, ornate cornices and ceiling roses, formal living areas and gorgeous Jarrah floorboards. There is a fireplace in the front loungeroom and a Metters Stove in great condition in the kitchen.
The main bathroom has been updated and there is a second bathroom which has been mostly stripped and ready to be restored. NOTE this second bathroom is not functional in its current state.
THE LOCATION
The hospital is just up the road, the Kelmscott Shopping District is just down the road and the train station is within easy walking distance. Beautiful parks and bushwalks are on your doorstep and the Kelmscott primary school is a minute's walk away. You will never need to drive far, making this an ideal place to call home.
If you are tired of cookie cutter homes in new housing estates - this is an opportunity worth taking on and with most of the major items completed already, you can have the fun part of bringing this project to completion.
This is an awesome opportunity to buy a piece of history in a great location, don't waste time, it won't last long at this price!
