With neutral tones and good lighting, this unit just feels bright and airy from immediate entry. The study area can be seen right when you walk in, with it's large windows bringing in the lightness from the sky and making it feel open and welcoming. Pop a desk here or a reading chair, and a few pot plants, and you have yourself the perfect place to relax. For sunnier days when you want to cool the place down, there are blinds here to close off and darken the room.
The apartment features hard floors throughout with laminate flooring in the living areas and bedroom, and tiles to the bathroom - meaning it is easy on allergies and cleaning! Best of all, there is an air conditioner in the kitchen which flows over to the dining/living area, providing a nice breeze in the summer.
The kitchen has plenty of bench space and cupboard space, including a roller-down cupboard to tuck away any pantry essentials. There is a deep sink with mixer tap, large fridge space, gas hotplates, and overhead rangehood.
In the bedroom, there is plenty of space for your clothes rack or drawers as well as the bed. There is a window with a nice overlook of the street and trees below, providing plenty of light.

Como is an established suburb bound to the west by the Canning and Swan Rivers. Part of the City of South Perth's municipality, Como experienced its most significant development during the 1950s and 1960s, with gradual growth since the early 1990s as new dwellings were added to the area.
Parks and reserves are a dominant aspect of the Como landscape, such as one of Como's most notable features the international standard 27 hole Collier Park Golf Course. The Como Hotel is a popular bar, café and restaurant in the suburb and a recognisable fixture of Canning Highway. There are also some shops in the area to service local requirements, as well as four local schools, including Penrhos College.
