A 1960s design capsule with a modern heart
For the first time this charming, retro 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom 1960-built home is available for sale, awaiting its next family to lovingly bring their vision to life. Situated at the top end of Second Avenue, a quiet tree-lined street full of Mount Lawley history, it's just moments from the suburb's renowned tennis and golf clubs and highly regarded primary school, Hamer Park Reserve and the vibrant Beaufort Street food and wine strip. It is a location that offers the finest of Mount Lawley life, in a private and tranquil back setting.
Beautifully preserved, the mid-century original is an echo from the past, with abstract patterns, exposed brown brickwork, arched doorways and bold colourways throughout. While it may be a design capsule from the 60s, the thoughtful floorplan inspired by connectivity and flow captures the essence of modern living. The kitchen is generously sized and at the heart of daily life, effortlessly connecting to the dining room, lounge, and outdoor patio. Well-proportioned spaces and a central layout provide the best foundations and await a striking transformation to suit families of today.
The front and rear gardens provide an abundance of usable space and evoke the essence of the 'great Australian dream'. A patio spanning the width of the house is fitted with roller blinds for year-round use, and the hills hoist clothesline still stands strong. With mature trees, a chicken pen, generous open space and a garden shed, it invites the avid homesteader to plant this year's harvest, or the visionary to re-design their family's new outdoor oasis.
