Street-front and almost riverside.
Look, we all know the upsides of near-city townhouse living in Mount Lawley. Cafés around the corner, the Swan River within strolling distance, and the CBD just 3km away. What you don't always get is space, privacy and a home that doesn't feel tucked away in the middle of a complex. Thankfully, this one delivers. Positioned right at the front of the group with its own private gate off Joel Terrace, this sweetheart enjoys genuine street presence and a wonderful sense of independence. The gated courtyard is a sunny little spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind at the end of the day, while inside, a cleverly designed split-level floorplan creates a surprising sense of space that's often missing in homes of this style.
The light-filled lounge enjoys leafy street views before stepping down to the dedicated dining area, perfectly positioned alongside the practical kitchen with its breakfast bar, dishwasher and more bench space than you might expect. Whether you're cooking up a feast or ordering your favourite UberEats, it's a layout that simply works. Upstairs, the accommodation is refreshingly generous, with three proper-sized bedrooms, all with built-in robes. The main bedroom enjoys its own ensuite and split-system air conditioning, while the second bedroom also features split-system comfort and plenty of room for a growing family or housemate. And for everyday practicality? There's a third toilet downstairs for guests.
With its private position, thoughtful layout and unbeatable lifestyle location, this home makes perfect sense whether you're looking to invest, with a tenant already in place, or planning ahead for a future move into one of Mount Lawley's most sought-after pockets.
Location-wise, this is one of those neighbourhoods where nature, coffee, convenience and city access all come together beautifully. The Swan River foreshore and Red Run Pathway are just moments away, inviting you to walk, run, cycle or simply soak up the scenery. Wander to Banks Reserve (400m) for a picnic, grab your morning brew from Pages Café (1.3km), Daily Dose Coffee Bar (2km) or Ground Plan Coffee (2.1km), or make the easy trip into the CBD from Mount Lawley Train Station (1.3km). Better still, jump on a bike and enjoy the picturesque seven-minute riverside ride to Optus Stadium (2km). Families are equally well catered for, with Highgate Primary School (2.4km), Perth College (2.3km), Maylands Peninsula Primary School (3.3km) and Mount Lawley Senior High School (3.7km) all within easy reach by bus. And when it's time to head out, you'll be spoiled for choice with the vibrant café, restaurant and bar scenes of Mount Lawley, Highgate, Inglewood and Maylands all just moments from your front gate.
