Classic Nedlands Charm
This is a wonderful classic Nedlands apartment that has big rooms and soaring 10ft+ ceilings. The ceiling heights in particular is what makes these apartments feel so spacious – the actual volume inside them is huge.
The pictures and the floorplan will tell the story better than I can, but other important information you should know:
This apartment is situated in a small group of only four apartments that are all owner-occupied. When purchasing you are also buying a 25% share of a large land holding of ~ 898m2 of prime Nedlands land.
Inside you have amazing spaces and throughout the apartment you have freshly sanded and polished, solid Jarrah floors. Interestingly this building features Jarrah floors that actually sit on a concrete slab. The ceiling is plaster with ornate cornices as you would expect for this era, but above that is the other concrete slab of the apartment above = solid as a rock.
This apartment is a ground floor residence and has direct access out the back door to the lovely north facing backyard, gardens and grass area – the perfect spot to do a little gardening or just relax on the grass, under the Mulberry Tree.
It is a rare offering as apartments from this era are typically, tightly held by very passionate owners and will make a really charming and spacious home.
