Renovated Art Deco Bungalow
1A Alexander is a beautiful interwar art deco bungalow adorned with an array of classic deco features. Recently renovated and revitalised, this 1930's home awaits its next chapter. Resting on a generous 1,012 sqm block, this traditional Menora residence is perched on an elevated site, offering an expansive rear garden that's a perfect playground for your entire family.
Originally owned by a local leadlight craftsman, the residence is adorned with exquisitely intricate leadlight details throughout. From the entry doors to the windows, the level of care taken and craftsmanship is evident.
Inside, you'll find multiple living areas and adaptable spaces to cater to your unique needs. The home boasts an abundance of character features, including exquisite ornate ceilings and cornices, jarrah plate shelves, ceilings lined with jarrah rafters and freshly polished jarrah floors.
The primary living area is a refined space featuring a window seat and a fireplace alcove; creating an elegant setting for both entertaining and relaxation. Meanwhile, the dining area showcases an awe-inspiring coffered ornate dome ceiling with stunning detail. Beautifully finished, these rooms evoke a sense of a bygone era.
The newly renovated kitchen features a soft and sophisticated colour palette, fresh cabinetry, a stainless steel sink, ample storage, and modern appliances; including an oven, cooktop, and dishwasher. With direct access to the alfresco area and dining room, entertaining is sure to be effortless.
The traditional art deco bathroom has undergone a tasteful facelift, preserving the original terrazzo floor while modernising the amenity with a new double vanity with brushed nickel tapware and oval mirrors, a large shower with Roman bath and new tapware, an overhead skylight and a new toilet.
A sunroom adjacent to the main bedroom serves as a light-filled retreat for parents or a home office environment. Additionally, a study space is located near the second bedroom, providing wonderful flexibility to accommodate your specific needs.
The main bedroom is oversized and features a lovely window seat for taking in the day and brand new window treatments. Light and bright, this space will be a dream to wake up to.
The expansive rear yard is a blank canvas ready for your creative touch. Its elevated position offers endless possibilities for optimizing the space to suit your family's preferences. Whether it's space for a garden, vegetable patch, grassed area for the children and pets, or space for tinkering and lounging, you could do it all here.
For your parking needs, there's a single-car garage as well as open space for a second vehicle on the property.
Conveniently positioned, 1A Alexander places you near the boundaries of Mount Lawley and North Perth, and only minutes to the action. With a secluded park directly behind you (Walter Alexander Reserve) and located in one of Perth’s leafiest and established suburbs, Menora continues its enduring appeal. The residence falls within the sought-after Coolbinia Primary School and Kyilla Primary School optional catchment areas and the Mount Lawley Senior High School catchment area; and Perth College is also conveniently nearby, making this location ideal for families.
We expect strong interest and encourage buyers to act promptly.

Menora overview
The suburb of Menora grew out of a large area generally referred to as Mount Lawley. In 1954, the Nomenclature Advisory Committee, working with the Postmaster General established suburb names and boundaries for the inner metropolitan area. The area of Menora was considered unnamed, and Menora was chosen as the name because of the Menora Picture Theatre located in Walcott Street within the area.
Life in Merora
Menora is home to a large Jewish community, the heart of which is the Perth Hebrew Congregation. It is close to the Carmel Jewish School and other Kosher facilities such as the Kosher Food Centre and Besh Fresh cafe. A Jewish synagogue was opened on Plantation Street in 1973 and remains a significant spiritual focus for Perth's Jewish community.
The suburb contains some commercial ribbon development along Walcott Street, which allows local residents to access retail services. Other facilities include a large number of public open space reserves and several pocket parks, Saint Paul's Primary School and several homes for senior citizens.
