18 Cliff Street, Albany WA 6330

This prime real estate presents a rare opportunity for discerning buyers or developers recognising the value and many advantages of a substantial property right in the city.

Established in the 1950s, it consists of a beautiful character home on a 2732sqm lot with sensational panoramic views from Mt Clarence, over the port and Princess Royal Harbour and beyond to Torndirrup National Park.

Subdividing the block, which slopes from back to front, is a real prospect. The home is sited near the front and there’s access to the rear from the street at the back.
A flat pad for a home site has been established at the top of the block and a retaining wall is already in place.

The solid brick home, built on granite and ironstone foundations, features jarrah floors, timber window frames, high ceilings and sunny rooms. Designed with the main living spaces at the front to make the most of the fabulous outlook, it has been lovingly maintained and held in the same family since the 1960s.

Living areas are versatile and comfortable, consisting of a generous lounge with French doors leading onto a long sunroom, and a playroom or hobby room at the back. Next to the lounge is the dining area, with a share of the view, and then the kitchen, a modern workspace with a dishwasher, wall oven and gas cooking.

The master bedroom at the front has an en suite shower room and built-in robes and two of the three family bedrooms have robes. In addition to the main bathroom, with bath, shower, vanity and toilet, there’s a third toilet off the laundry, near the back door.

All flooring, window treatments, décor and tiling are in excellent order, and the property is very well presented.

A circular driveway facilitates access and parking for visitors, and a double-length garage at the side has a door to handy under-house storage and a wine cellar or workshop.

Real estate of this size within a few minutes’ walk of York Street’s eateries, shops and nightlife is scarce. With possibilities for subdivision, development or enjoying the privileged lifestyle just as it is, this is a highly desirable property.
