With 12-foot ceilings, well-proportioned rooms and a versatile floorplan, this much cherished family home provides a solid foundation for those looking to renovate and create a substantial family residence tailored to their needs. Alternatively, the perfectly level landholding of 1012sqm, with a wide 20.12m frontage and depth of 50.29m, combined with an R40 zoning, adds significant residential development potential in this popular inner-city location.
Inside, the home retains its wonderful sense of character, with jarrah flooring, high decorative ceilings and original fireplaces to the main bedroom and formal lounge.

Three split-system air conditioning units provide additional comfort, with units positioned in the main bedroom, kitchen and lounge.
Outside, established fruit trees, including figs, loquats, olives, citrus and mulberry trees, all hug the boundaries, leaving plenty of space for future development - or a game of backyard cricket! There's plenty of room here for children's play equipment, veggie gardens and relaxed outdoor living. A secure rear garage or workshop, additional carport and storage add further practicality.
The location is equally appealing.
