What's around 8/1 Rookwood Street

Secret retreat in Mount Lawley’s heart

A ground floor spot dedicated to taking the edge off. This is a rare chance to claim a slice of calm (yep, you read that right) in Mount Lawley without giving up a single one of the perks that make this postcode such a head-turner. Tucked away, in a well-kept garden complex, this fabulously sized 2 x 1 ground floor apartment delivers the sweetest spot between between solid investment and easy living right now. It boasts generous open plan living that feels brighter and airier than you'd expect from something that'll take you under an hour to clean and at this ripper price point. Slide open the plantation shuttered doors and you're straight out into the garden (hello, morning coffees) and then onto the study nook which, if you're WFH, means your dining table is actually saved for, well… dining! A practical kitchen offers all the storage you need, while the main bedroom serves comfort on a platter with a ceiling fan and a bank of built-ins. The second bedroom works well as a guest room, study or flexible extra space, making this home ready for the good life. The combined laundry/bathroom gives you a large shower, space for your washer, a proper vanity, and WC. Plus, the single lock up garage means your car gets a home too - rare in these parts. Whether you plan to rent it out, live in it happily, refresh it totally, or all of the above eventually, this one has value-add and lifestyle-choice in all caps. Location-wise, what a flex. Between Queen's Memorial Reserve, the tennis courts, and the bowling club (50m), you've got instant access to greenery, movement, and wholesome weekend energy. Beaufort Street, undoubtedly the beating heart of Mount Lawley, is a breezy 350m stroll, which means fresh pastries from Butter Crumbs (450m), a bagel run at Bagel O's (450m), or a date night at La Rebelle (450m) are all dangerously doable. Need a low‑key night? Miss Potz (500m) has your comfort‑food cravings covered. Meeting friends? Try The Elford (400m) or The Queens (850m). Need something fancy? There's L'Antica Trattoria (450m), Testun (900m), or el Publico (850m). And let's not forget the cultural crown jewel of The Astor Theatre (350m), perfect for live shows. Parks? Copley Park (700m) and Forrest Park (700m). Groceries? Fresh Provisions (350m) and Mount Lawley IGA (450m). City commute? Just 2.6km away. School zone? Mount Lawley SHS (1.7km). Basically: choose your own adventure. Ready to unwind? Hit Alannah or Nat up now (call or email). Or rock up to the home open. ***** Buyers from $599K are encouraged to come and inspect this property with all offers presented as received, and responded to on or before the campaign end date of 5:00pm Tuesday the 24th of March 2026 (IF NOT SOLD PRIOR).

Absolutely wonderful

This girl was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, always answered the phone, arranged trades for me etc. The property is in Mt Lawley and I am in Sydney, so her help was very necessary. I cannot recommend her too highly, and wish her and the team all the best for the future. You will not be disappointed with their services
