138 Birkett Street, Bedford WA 6052

A pretty face with practicality upgrades

Character homes are easy to fall for. Sadly, most of them come with a never-ending to-do list. This beauty comes with a wine rack, workshop, a large 454sqm lot with room to grow, and the happy knowledge that someone else has already handled all the hard parts in the meantime. Behind an elevated facade awaits a Bedford classic that’s enjoyed a glow-up, preserving all kinds of charm while upgrading the bits that matter most. Polished Jarrah boards, renovated bathrooms, flexible living spaces, and a driveway with enough parking to make everyone and their plus ones (or just you and your boat) breathe a sigh of relief… all the way to the rear workshop. Inside is that perfect mix of maintained character and mod cons, from the front living room filled with natural light and centred around a refurbished fireplace to the modernised kitchen with white shaker-style cabinetry and subway tiling. There’s an adjoining meals area that keeps everything and everyone connected, and two comfortable bedrooms, including a main with built-in robes and a renovated ensuite (yes, an ensuite!). You’ll fall in love with the versatile sunroom/sleepout, which could be the most epic WFH setup, creative space (or separate living), and the oodles of outdoor space (extension anyone?!) that’s refreshingly low fuss.

Location-wise, this address just keeps proving why Bedford’s one of Perth's most well-connected pockets. Sitting just 500m from Grand Prom and 3.3km from Beaufort Street, you're really in that sweet spot between peaceful residential living and a social calendar that's never short of options. The green spaces are exceptional, from Birkett Reserve (180m), Alan Lehman Reserve (450m), Grand Promenade Reserve (900m), and Beaufort Park (1.6km), through to the fairways of Mount Lawley Golf Club (1.6km). Dinner plans practically make themselves with Our Table (750m), Django's (750m), and Cecchi's (1.9km) all nearby. Your morning coffee run is equally well sorted thanks to Red Man Cucina (270m) and 60 on Walter (700m), while everyday errands become wonderfully uncomplicated with Bedford IGA (800m), Coles (1.8km), Coventry Village (1.6km), and Galleria (2.3km) all within easy reach. Families are particularly well-positioned with St Peter's Primary School (1.2km), Chisholm Catholic College (1.9km), John Forrest Secondary College (2.1km), and Hillcrest Primary School (2.3km) all close by. And with the No 68 bus providing an easy run into the city, (the CBD’s just 6.5km away), you'll really feel you’ve landed somewhere exceptional.
