Located in a prime position of Wembley, this solid and charming three-bedroom character home built in 1952 may be largely original, but occupies a desirable block in a prime location, set back just two streets from Lake Monger. Add your own personal modern touches to this home’s fantastic footprint and prosper with a renovation and transformation that will make all of your dreams come true at once.
Upon entry, a carpeted formal lounge complete with French doors and a working fireplace welcomes you inside. Off the lounge, you will also find a spacious kitchen with a gas cooktop and access to the large family room. Featuring built-in shelving, linen closet, air-con, water closet and laundry room access, the family room space is primed to be the hub of the home.
The large, carpeted master suite is the pick of the bedrooms with its built-in wardrobe and shelving, ceiling fan and privacy with its location at the rear of the home. The additional two bedrooms are carpeted for comfort and each feature robes for storage. Servicing the home is a hall bathroom featuring a bathtub and separate shower.
Outdoors, a bricked patio is covered for protection from the elements and allows you to breathe in the fresh air sweeping off Lake Monger. Leafy trees and paved walkways provide access to the vast backyard space including a working shed. Rear laneway access is also accessible from O’Mahony Lane.
Extras include character jarrah floorboards under the carpet in the lounge and front two bedrooms, wall heater in the formal lounge, tall ceilings, security doors and screens and a delightful front entry pergola. Double driveway access allows for plenty of parking space.
It’s all about location, location, location here, with the property also nestled within the sought-after Wembley Primary catchment zone and very close to other top public and private schools, as well as lush local parklands, public transport, and even the buzzing Grantham Street food and coffee spots. Opportunity knocks for you here – and loudly!
