River and parkland walks are one of the first things that come to mind when describing the lifestyle Maylands has to offer, and this adorable 1950's cottage promises just that.
Nestled in between Gibney Reserve and the Swan River, there is nothing more you could wish for in a location, and with its three great sized bedrooms and two bathrooms (one is ensuite), high ceilings, jarrah floorboards and a double carport, it screams potential.
Sure, it needs work, but this must be the cheapest house in the most sought-after location.
Whether you're starting up and looking for your first home or wanting to build a two-storey house one day in a premium location (say hello to gorgeous park views), it's an easy decision.

Maylands is a riverside inner-city suburb approximately 4.5 kilometres northeast of Perth, serviced by the Midland railway line on the northern bank of the Swan River. In 1896 the name "Maylands" was first used to identify the area, appearing on a poster advertising a land auction. However the exact reason how the area got its name is something of a mystery.
The suburb was once a source of clay for brick and tile making at Maylands Brickworks, and the pits from these activities are now part of a golf course and residential area. It was home to Perth's main airport until the early 1960s, and the facilities were converted to a training area for the Western Australian Police Service.
Maylands is known as a cultural and creative hub as it is home to The West Australian Ballet Centre and home to the WA Youth Jazz Orchestra. In recent years, new bars, cafés and restaurants, along with gourmet food and retail outlets have all contributed to an ongoing transformation of the town centre into a lively, diverse and inclusive destination. There are numerous shopping centres in the area, 15 parks and reserves and two primary schools.
