Century 21 Jones Property Group is proud to present 21 Manchester Street, Victoria Park. Wow! It's not every day a property of this size and caliber comes to the market but for all lovers of character homes and larger properties in general, this one will definitely have you excited! Positioned on a whopping 1,012m2 approx. R30 zoned block the future potential and possibilities here are endless.
Originally built in 1921, this property has been a loved family home for many, many years but it's now time for a new owner to call home. Tastefully treated to some recent updates the home has just been freshly painted inside and out, has new carpets to the living area, and boasts high ceilings, jarrah floors, ornate ceilings and multiple fireplaces making this property the quintessential character home. The residence itself offers a very versatile floor plan with multiple ways a large growing family can configure the home and could even potentially be seen as a 5-bedroom home if required, making this a rare find indeed! Stacked with features throughout some include:
* Private front yard of the property, offering the ability to park multiple cars if needed.
* Side gates offering vehicle access to the rear workshop / shed and also the ability to park up a boat, trailer or work vehicle.
* Stunning front facade of the property with large verandah and front porch that wraps around the home and encapsulates the 1920's era of the home.
* Tuck pointed brickwork and feature stucco to the front of the dwelling.
* Wide front entry to the home with high ornate ceilings and leadlight windows.
* Generous sized Master bedroom to the front of the home with plantation shutters and ceiling fan.
* Separate front lounge room with plantation shutters and fireplace. Could also be another bedroom if required but offers the perfect private and cozy front lounge room.
* Bedroom 2 – also a large size and offering the added benefit of having outdoor access to your own courtyard, making this the ideal teenagers retreat! For the creative thinkers this courtyard could also translate into a space for an ensuite bathroom in the future and something that could seriously add additional versatility and value to the home.
* Generous sized open main living room with fireplace, plantation shutters, reverse cycle air-conditioning and newly carpeted and offers a spacious main central living zone.
* Minor bedrooms 3 and 4, perfectly positioned to the side of the home and ideal for the kids! These could also make a perfect home office or a guest bedroom, should you choose.
* Large open plan central dining/meals area.
* Kitchen with 4 burner gas cooking, newly painted cupboards, period piece rangehood, tiled splash back and plenty of bench space.
* Main bathroom with shower, vanity and bathtub.
* Laundry with WC and outdoor access.
* Paved outdoor entertaining area with large patio.
* Generous sized rear workshop/shed, well positioned in the right-hand corner of the block. Perfect for all your storage needs and benefits greatly from direct side access to the street. Perfect for this looking to work on vehicles or who need secured parking and storage.
* Huge backyard which is a blank canvas to tap into, currently offering a grassed area for the kids and pets to run around and further space to the rear of the block to capitalise on. The possibilities here are endless but there's plenty of space to call your own, so if you've wanted your own pool, spa, substantial veggie garden or anything else you have in mind, there's plenty of space here to bring it to life!
Putting all the features of the existing home and improvements currently located on the site to one side, there's also some serious development potential on hand here for this property! Starting with the block itself, applying the R30 zoning this property has the capabilities to have 3 brand new dwellings erected on this site, if the original home was removed. You could argue strongly that the existing dwelling is in far too good of a condition for that to be carried out, but the option is there to bring the site back to basics and start again with 3 new dwellings. This could be a consideration now or many years into the future.
There is also the option to retain the sizeable home already and perhaps just create 1 new dwelling out the back. Now this option could be of serious interest to families who would love to utilise the existing home for their family needs for 10+ years and then decide to retain the home create some yard out the back for the existing front house and then sub-divide and build a newer residence at the rear, that would still occupy around a 400m2+ block for a lower maintenance modern style of living.
To retain the front home and build 2 at the rear could be an option but would likely require modification of the existing home and buyers would be encouraged to carry out their own due diligence on this option. ** All the above suggestions and any further development potential would be strictly subject to WAPC and local council approval. **
With so much on offer here on this site, we haven't even touched on the amazing location the property finds itself in - with just a short stroll having you down to Perth's most famous café and foody strip along the ever evolving and always popular Albany Highway. You'll also be minutes from the Swan River foreshore, local Parklands, Perth CBD, Optus Stadium, Crown Casino, Public Transport, local shopping and specialty stores and so many other attractions that make living the Vic Park life such a desired destination for buyers! In the current market this is a rare offering, so if you've been waiting for this exact opportunity to present itself, don't let this slip through your fingers!
