AUCTION ON SITE SAT 22ND AUG 11AM (Unless Sold Prior)
Every now and then, a property comes along that is less about what it is and more about what it can become - and this iconic Dalkeith prospect is exactly that.
Nestled within one of the suburb's most tranquil and sought-after looped streets and resting proudly on a sprawling 1,012sqm quarter-acre block, this largely-original 3 bedroom 2 bathroom residence presents a world of possibilities - and charm. Renovate it, extend it or modernise it while you plan your next move.
In reality though, the true value lies beneath your feet. Opportunities to secure a level 1,012sqm landholding of this scale in one of Dalkeith's most tightly held river precincts are becoming increasingly rare. This is the kind of property that inspires grand visions and bold ideas - the perfect setting for a spectacular luxury family abode with all the bells and whistles.
Picture the dream theatre room, dedicated home office, expansive open-plan living spaces, a resort-style alfresco-entertaining zone, a sparkling swimming pool, a huge powered workshop and the multi-car garage you've always promised yourself. With its generous 20.1-metre frontage and substantial level allotment, the possibilities for premium home design are simply exceptional.
The existing home may have character in the form of high ceilings and solid wooden floorboards, but the future here is nothing short of remarkable. Surrounded by quality properties and positioned in one of Dalkeith's most coveted pockets, this is a rare chance to secure the space, location and lifestyle required to create something truly extraordinary. Large family blocks of this scale are seldom offered to the market in such an established blue-chip suburb.
No matter which direction your vision takes, this blue-chip position is every bit as rewarding as the opportunity itself. Mere footsteps from the sparkling Swan River and the magnificent foreshore parklands that line its banks, you'll find yourself immersed in the most picturesque of settings. Morning walks, riverside picnics and sunset strolls will simply be part of your daily routine.
Adding even more appeal is the close proximity to Dalkeith Primary School, the local cafe strip, popular restaurants and the ever-convenient Waratah Avenue IGA supermarket. The Dalkeith Tennis Club and Nedlands Bowling Club are just around the corner, while Claremont Quarter's boutique shopping, some of the state's finest private schools, the University of Western Australia, world-class medical precincts and the CBD itself - less than 15 minutes away - are all comfortably and conveniently within reach.
When the address is this prestigious and the block size this substantial, the only limit here is the size of your imagination!
