From the classic weatherboard exterior to the pristine interiors and front veranda overlooking a gorgeous green garden this picture-perfect cottage is a true Valley gem. The location alone is superb: wander over to farmers markets, parks and local cafes on the weekends, cycle into Freo in under 10 minutes, or enjoy an easy stroll down the road to the local primary school.
A flourishing native verge continues into the front garden of lawn, olive, lemon, hakea and more, while the gated driveway and single carport offer tandem parking for two cars. The breezy front veranda is the perfect perch to watch the kids play in peace with a cuppa before stepping inside to 1950s character.
Rich jarrah floors flow down the hallway to two high-ceilinged rooms the master looking out to the front garden and the second with a wall of robes, both with split-system air and a modern bathroom to share: rainshower, vanity and bath.
At its heart is an endearing sense of home there's the living with a cosy fireplace, a separate study or retreat behind sliding barn doors, a little reading nook with built-in library walls, and a casual meals area by the laundry, complete with split-system air and a ceiling fan. The kitchen wraps around in a U-shape, with a big freestanding gas cooker, dishwasher and filtered water tap, while the neat laundry houses a separate toilet before spilling outside.
Out the back, aggregate wraps the exterior, with a private, sheltered patio, sunny alfresco deck, lemon tree garden bed, washing line and side pathway to the carport.
It's easy to imagine Valley life with a home like this classic character that fits right in, a brilliant location to enjoy, and a community spirit that few suburbs can replicate.
