What's around 41 Ward St

DUAL OCCUPANCY OPPORTUNITY - FLEXIBLE LIVING, TIMELESS CHARM, INCOME POTENTIAL

There are homes, and then there are homes that seem to whisper their stories as you walk through them. Bishopbourne is one of those rare properties, now offering not only history and character, but remarkable flexibility for modern living and income generation. Set proudly on a 1304sqm corner block along a wide, tree-lined street in the heart of leafy Lamington, this enchanting early 1900s residence feels like stepping back to a time where craftsmanship, charm, and opportunity quietly intertwine. From the moment you arrive, there's a sense of occasion as you are welcomed through the original stained glass front door and into the sweeping entrance hall, where ceilings soar high above, adorned with ornate pressed tin and framed by timeless picture rails and ceiling roses. Soft light filters through stained glass, casting coloured reflections that shift with the day, while elegant bay windows invite the outside in-leafy, peaceful, and ever-changing. The home unfolds gently, room by room. Fireside evenings in the formal lounge, long dinners in the dining room, relaxed gatherings in the family spaces or around the pool, all centred around a place of connection. There is space here, not just in size, but in feeling, and what makes Bishopbourne truly exceptional, is its ability to adapt to the way you want to live. Thoughtfully configured, the home can function as one grand residence or be divided into two distinct, self-contained units, opening the door to multi-generational living, dual-income rental streams, or a 'live-in and lease half' arrangement. Be surprised by the former chapel, once part of the original design, now thoughtfully transformed into a modern country kitchen, family dining and European laundry. The front and back wings can be separated into two independent units, both with direct pool and garden access, making the home ideal for guests, extended family, Airbnb hosting, or long-term rentals. This unique layout allows for: • Living in one residence while leasing the other • Hosting short-stay accommodation or Airbnb • Accommodating extended or multi-generational family • Leasing both spaces for dual income returns Beyond the walls, the grounds are equally evocative. Expansive, reticulated gardens wrap around the home-now resting, waiting for a new hand to bring them back to life. Once vibrant, they offer a canvas for something truly special again. At their heart, a below-ground pool shimmers in the Kalgoorlie sun, while a substantial, high-clearance workshop stands ready for work, storage, or creativity, with drive-through rear access. Over time, Bishopbourne has evolved and today it offers not just beauty and history, but versatility rarely found in homes of this era.
