Mega Potential!!
Whether you're looking for a great home, or a superb investment, this property is EXCITING!
Firstly, the location is perfect! Right accross the road from the Forrestfield Primary School, and right between both of the suburbs main shopping centres -with Centro Forrestfield just down the street!
Originally built as a 3x1 in 1968, the home has been extended to become a large 5 bedroom home with multiple living areas. If you're after something more conventional, one of the rooms could probably be converted into an ensuite to create a 4x2 - entirely up to you!
The backyard is HUGE. with driveway all the way back to a workshop, which might also be an epic games room if you happen to own a pool table!
And the block is a classic quarter acre (that means it's 1,012 square metres)
It is zoned R25/60 which gives you a tonne of groovy development options - and at a time where tax changes now favour developers, this is one to land bank!
Some options are:
1) Retain the existing home and build a new one at the rear
2) Retain the existing home and build TWO new ones at the rear!
3) Deconstruct the existing home and build 3, 4, 5 or even 6 new properties!
4) If you really want to go nuts, it may even be possible to build a small set of apartments up to 3 stories high!
We do encourage you to make your own enquiries regarding the development options, and if you need we can also help to put you in touch with an expert.
In the meantime though, come and check out the home - we think you'll love it!

Forrestfield overview
Forrestfield is a suburb of the City of kalamunda and is 15 kilometres of the south-east of Perth. Local folklore suggests that the name comes from Charles Hale who settled here in 1902 and planted a crop amongst the trees. A neighbour referred to him wanting a forest and a field at the same time and the name was later applied to the area. A Forrest Field Progress Association was formed as early as 1927 and the name is shown on plans as Forrestfield for 1944.
