STRATA FREE GEM
Set on its own survey strata lot - with no strata fees and no common property - this single-level home is a rare find in a whisper quiet enclave of Como. Offering privacy, security, and a generous layout, it's the perfect low-maintenance option for downsizers, professionals, young families, or country buyers.
Inside, the home impresses with soaring high ceilings, stunning large format French windows and a split-level open-plan design that combines the lounge, dining, and a stylishly renovated kitchen. The kitchen features quality appliances, ample bench space, stone bench tops and custom-built storage - ideal for those who love to cook or entertain.
There are two separate and highly functional outdoor spaces:
A north-facing rear courtyard that's private and secure, complete with garden beds, a lockable storeroom, and plenty of room to relax or entertain.
A street-facing front courtyard, fully enclosed with high fencing for maximum security, paved for low maintenance, and perfect for young children or pets to enjoy.
Add to that a secure double lock-up garage - something seldom found in this price point - and you've got a home that truly stands on its own.
All of this in a secluded, established pocket of Como, close to both highly regarded public and private schools, with easy access to public transport, parks, and local shopping precincts.
Whether you're downsizing and want independence, a young family starting out, a professional wanting space without the upkeep, or coming in from the country needing a 'lock-up and leave' city base - this property ticks all the boxes.
A survey strata lot is very different to the more common built strata arrangement in that you can extend and modify your building with only council and building approvals required.

Como overview
Como is an established suburb bound to the west by the Canning and Swan Rivers. Part of the City of South Perth's municipality, Como experienced its most significant development during the 1950s and 1960s, with gradual growth since the early 1990s as new dwellings were added to the area.
Life in Como
Parks and reserves are a dominant aspect of the Como landscape, such as one of Como's most notable features the international standard 27 hole Collier Park Golf Course. The Como Hotel is a popular bar, café and restaurant in the suburb and a recognisable fixture of Canning Highway. There are also some shops in the area to service local requirements, as well as four local schools, including Penrhos College.
