This gorgeous 1940s Californian bungalow has been cleverly refurbished and offers classic comfort in a wonderful location that will impress families by falling within the sought-after Wembley Primary School and Shenton College catchment zones.
Offering just over 300sqm of total living area, inclusive of a fantastic outdoor-entertainment setting at the rear – complete with a stunning cedar-lined alfresco deck with its own kitchen/barbecue, a corner garden patio and more decking to relax on beside the sparkling solar-heated swimming pool. Inside, solid wood floorboards warm the formal lounge and dining rooms, alternating with carpet and modern low-maintenance flooring in the bedrooms where the likes of soaring high ceilings and nostalgic character features are commonplace throughout.
Both bathrooms are impeccably appointed (one of them even brand-new), whilst the central activity room – or study – is brilliant in its versatility. However, most of your casual time will be spent within the stylish airiness of an expansive open-plan family, meals and kitchen area and its quality stainless-steel appliances, tiled splashbacks and exquisitely-crafted cabinet that are all prevalent before you spill outside to the alfresco and yard.
Walk to Wembley Primary School, the local IGA, parks and numerous cafes and restaurants along Cambridge Street, whilst indulging in a very close proximity to the picturesque Herdsman Lake, sporting and medical facilities, the freeway, city, the lovely Lake Monger, Wembley Golf Course, glorious beaches and so much more. Outstanding living awaits you right here!

What The Owner Loves
We love entertaining friends and the house is perfect for it. We love the quiet and friendly neighbourhood and the opportunity to walk our boys to and from the local school. The area is central to everything we do and as convenient to the city as it is to the beach.

Wembley is a large western-suburb of Perth. Established in 1831, Wembley's key population growth occurred between 1910 and 1930, and again in the post-war years. More recently, Wembley has experienced gradual increases since the mid-1990s as new homes have been added to the suburb.
Numerous recreational facilities and clubs add great lifestyle appeal to the suburb, with squash, t-ball, tennis, netball, football, athletics, baseball, lacrosse and hockey all catered for. Lake Monger is a much loved feature, providing lovely walk ways and beautiful scenery to those who visit, while The Wembley Hotel is a popular pub that never fails to draw a crowd. Cambridge Street is the suburbs most urban fixture, with numerous pubs and restaurants lining the street. There are three local schools in Wembley.
