Renovator’s Dream; Prime Location & Potential

Claiming a prime corner position across a generous 516m2 block, this 60s brick-and-tile original offers endless possibilities for visionary buyers. Move in and make the most of this fantastic location, breathe new life into its existing bones with fresh renovations or start again and develop this block to its full potential with no shortage of inspiration from surrounding contemporary homes. This is a quiet, family-friendly pocket and highly walkable to plenty: leafy, green parklands, playgrounds, the local primary school, public transport, shops and cafés.

Offered to market on an “as-is” basis, flourishing gardens wrap the exterior and provide excellent screening behind the high walls. A tiled front porch guides you inside to 60s retro charm; original jarrah floorboards, linoleum flooring, awning windows, and a simple kitchen with laminate benchtops, breakfast bar and electric cooking. The lounge is light and bright with walls of south-facing glass while the kitchen overlooks the north-facing backyard with bursts of colourful bougainvillea, a large shed, and timber pergola above a paved courtyard. The laundry sits adjacent to the kitchen with exterior access and another door to the hallway where you’ll find three ample-sized bedrooms and a well-maintained bathroom featuring mosaic tiling, a built-in bath, neat vanity, corner shower and separate WC. Completing this retro home is a newly installed switchboard and instant hot water system.

Outside there’s plenty of scope to transform this area into the garden zone of your dreams, including space for a pool at the rear. Behind the secure gate, a single car port offers room to park your car off-street with tandem parking available for an additional vehicle or trailer.

Balcatta has become a thriving hub of activity and this location couldn’t be better. There’s local community events, sporting clubs, sprawling parklands and multiple shopping precincts for a range of services, cafés, restaurants and medical amenities, while major arterial routes nearby include Mitchell Freeway and Karrinyup Road, with Perth City, Kings Park, Karrinyup Shopping Centre, and the stunning coastline a short drive away.
