All this sweet cottage needs is someone willing to show it a little love.
Could it be you? Are you open to the possibility of rolling up your sleeves and putting in a little bit of work? (Or paying someone else to do it- no judgement here, manual labour isn’t for everyone.) This ‘50s fantasy has all the makings of a treasured home. And in fact, it’s actually been that all along. Lovely and liveable as is, it’s nonetheless ripe for a makeover, whether that be now or in a few years. Its beautiful features set the template for so many possibilities - obviously, the hardwood floors are special, as are the ornate ceilings and funky fireplace. But if you wanted to pop shiny new fit-outs into the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry, this home would be next level. Even just a lick of paint and some nifty picture rails hung with interesting artwork would freshen it up with little effort or expense. In the meantime, you get to keep comfy with the split system aircon units that almost seem to be adorning every wall. The layout is versatile enough for whatever your living arrangement is, including a great sleepout that could be a guest bedroom, an activity room, a study, or just a great spot to store and display your precious keepsakes. Picture windows at the front of the house capture the lawn, streetscape, and park beyond. There’s space in the driveway to park a couple of cars, and loads of potential for a gorgeous garden should you have even a tinge of a green to your thumb. Whether you decide to invest or move right in, leave it as is or renovate, and keep it sweet and simple or deck it out decadently, the charm of this property can’t be denied - bring it to the light and see for yourself.
Location-wise, this is Inglewood, where you’re almost guaranteed to unearth a dazzling array of cafes and restaurants the moment you move in. Aside from the iconic Monday Night Markets which are now in full swing, you’ll also find gems such as Cecchi’s (1.6km), Finlay & Sons (1km), and Chakra (1.7km) dishing up the goods. You’ve hit the jackpot when it comes to sports and outdoor living, too. The golf club is an easy 1.3km away, the leisure centre 1.4km, Inglewood Stadium 1.5km, and – the jewel in the crown that is this location - Macaulay Park is only 20m from your door. That’s not a typo, it’s right over the road. More than just a spot to take the dog for a run, it also offers playground facilities for the kids, BBQs for when you want to host more than a handful of mates, and pretty surrounds that keep you in touch with nature while you’re only 5.4km from the city. Not all that glitters is gold- but in this case, the sparkle is real.

Inglewood is an inner-northern suburb of Perth with a rich history and heritage. Present-day Inglewood is influenced by the charm of its past. Established in 1831, the bulk of Inglewood's landscape stems from its two distinct growth periods, 1904 to 1920 and 1935 to 1940, with renovation and restoration returning the pre-war vintage homes to their former glory.
The lifestyle in Inglewood is one of charm and convenience. Its beautifully old-fashioned suburban landscape is unique, yet its proximity to major urban inner-city hubs ensures modern conveniences and requirements are met. Inglewood's main commercial area is located on Beaufort Street and features retail facilities, cafes, a library, recreation centre and amenities. There is also an aquatic centre, golf course, facilities for tennis and soccer, a major park and a local primary school within the area.
