Inner-city charm and low-maintenance living
From this tranquil inner-city address, be prepared to fall in love with this three-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage. Built in 1898, this cute inner-city home exudes charm from every corner and is within walking distance of all the action, and yet slightly out of the fray.
High decorative ceilings, wide jarrah floorboards, four fireplaces and wide skirting boards will immediately impress character lovers. This gorgeous home will also appeal to those seeking a low-maintenance property, as the country kitchen features high-end appliances, and an updated elegant bathroom includes a claw-foot bath. The separate laundry with a toilet presents the opportunity to incorporate a bathroom and further capitalise on your inner-city investment.
A cosy formal lounge and a meals area in the kitchen offer ample space for living and dining. A sunroom offers additional living and dining space and overlooking the garden, it could also be used as an office, studio or playroom.
Reticulated cottage gardens add to the old-world allure, and off-street parking in a remote-controlled carport is highly desirable for any property this close to the CBD.
From this incredible location, stroll to brunch or drinks along the Beaufort Street dining and shopping strip. Play a round at the Loton Park Tennis Club, catch a game at HBF Park, meander to Hyde Park and riverside walking and cycling trails. You can walk the kids to Highgate Primary School, and you're also in the catchment for Mt Lawley Senior High School. Plus, you're close to Perth College, Mercedes College, Trinity College, and Edith Cowan University.
Conveniently, the East Perth Train Station, bus routes and Woolworths Highgate are within walking distance, and you're only moments from Fresh Provisions and a wide range of shopping and dining options in nearby Northbridge and the city.
