124 Aberdare Road, Shenton Park WA 6008

Bordering Nedlands, this original 1960s brick-and-tile home is being offered to the market for the first time, presenting a rare opportunity to secure a foothold in one of Perth's most sought-after inner-suburb lifestyle locations.

Set on a 400sqm green title block with R60 zoning, the property offers a compelling combination of a classic brick and tile residence, generous outdoor space and future possibilities. Whether you're a homeowner with an eye for design, a renovator ready for your next project or an investor looking at the bigger picture, this is an opportunity to make your mark.

The home has great bones and a practical layout to work with. Move straight in or a few small thoughtful updates could make it very comfortable, while a more extensive renovation could transform it into a contemporary family haven tailored to your lifestyle.

Beyond the home, the expansive backyard is another standout feature. With plenty of room for children and pets to play, there is also space to explore a beautiful outdoor entertaining area or create a leafy garden retreat. Convenient rear laneway access via Commercial Road adds another dimension to the property's appeal.

For buyers thinking long term, the R60 zoning presents potential opportunities to investigate future subdivision or redevelopment, subject to planning requirements and all relevant approvals. You may choose to renovate now and enjoy the home for years to come, retain the property as a landholding investment, or explore the possibility of new home that makes the most of the block.

The beauty lies in the choice. Create a home that reflects your personal style, unlock the potential of the existing residence or investigate what the future may hold for this well-positioned Shenton Park property. With its coveted address, generous backyard and versatile possibilities, this is your chance to secure a property with both immediate appeal and scope for the future.
