A Timeless Treasure Tailored to Your Needs
Sitting pretty on a massive corner block opposite the local George Street café and restaurant precinct, this impressive 2018-renovated 3 bedroom 2 bathroom charmer is brimming with warmth, soul and timeless appeal, offering up multiple flexible living options to suit any and every lifestyle.
A separate one-bed one-bath “granny flat” – also built in 2018 – is dominated by sleek polished concrete floors and is brilliant in its versatility, with multi-generational living or use as a potential home office also on the cards. There is also scope to rent the extra accommodation out as another means of income, if a separating fence is erected.
A splendid sitting courtyard under the vines neighbours the studio and is the perfect escape, away from all of life’s daily stresses. Internally, the open-plan living, meals and kitchenette area has its own cassette air-conditioning, electric range-hood and hotplate appliances, a white dishwasher, built-in storage and feature subway-tile splashbacks. Its connecting fully-tiled ensuite bathroom boasts a walk-in shower, toilet and powder vanity.
High ceilings and solid wooden floorboards ensure the main home’s original character of yesteryear is well and truly preserved. The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area defines modern functionality and has been exquisitely updated and upgraded to include sparkling stone bench tops, a breakfast bar, a Vintec wine fridge, mirrored splashbacks, integrated electric range-hood, hotplate and under-bench-oven appliances, an integrated Miele coffee machine and a semi-integrated dishwasher.
The larger master is the obvious pick of the bedrooms and is more than generous in its proportions. The revamped main bathroom features a walk-in rain shower, a vanity and a stunning stained-glass feature window, whilst the combined laundry-cum-second bathroom has also been cleverly refurbished to comprise of a striking claw-foot bathtub, stone bench tops, storage and more.
Outdoors, an architecturally-inspired and timber-lined alfresco area – off the living room – overlooks the lawned yard and offers expansive covered entertaining, no matter what the time of year.
There is also a storage attic, for good measure. Along the Lansdowne Road frontage there is even extra parking space for a boat or camper-van, if required.
Step outside your front door and you’re just metres from leafy local parks, handy bus stops and the much-loved Kensington Primary School. Top-tier education is close at hand with Wesley and Penrhos Colleges nearby, along with Kensington Montessori and Kent Street Senior High.
Grab your morning brew at the ever-popular The Little Banksia café, then explore the vibrant eats and treats of the buzzing Albany Highway strip. With major shopping hubs and the breathtaking South Perth foreshore – complete with sparkling Swan River views – all just minutes away, this is a commanding location that delivers in absolute spades.

Kensington overview
Kensington is a small suburb bound by South Terrace in the south and Canning Highway in the west. Developed in the post-war years, the suburb was named after the former Kensington Park Racecourse, which was most likely named after William Samuel Cox's Kensington Park Racecourse, in Melbourne. It is in a convenient location close to a number of inner-city urban hubs and just a few kilometres from Perth City.

A number of parks and reserves dominate the Kensington landscape providing plenty of scenic vistas and open public space for locals to explore. The retail and amenity requirements of residents are largely serviced by establishments in surrounding areas, however there is one supermarket within the suburb. Kensington borders Perth's Technology Park, is close to Curtin University and features one local school, Kensington Primary School.
