This character-laden 3 bedroom 2 bathroom post-war gem has exciting future development possibilities attached to it and will warm your heart with its original charm and nostalgia.
Nestled only a short drive away from the redeveloped Scarborough Beach foreshore, this beauty of a home can be accessed via a gated north-facing entry courtyard with a shade sail for protection from the elements. A raised verandah and sitting area is the perfect place to relax and enjoy those sea breezes, complemented by a delightful lemon tree that just won't stop fruiting.
Inside, an arched entry way makes an instant first impression on the eyes and is accompanied by high ceilings, solid wooden floorboards, timber skirting, feature cornices and decorative ceiling roses - all commonplace throughout. A large front lounge room is well-equipped for comfortable living with its split-system air-conditioning unit and gas-bayonet fireplace, sitting adjacent to a dining room with a chandelier in the middle of it.
A central kitchen is the heartbeat of the floor plan and plays host to a Technika electric-upright cooker. Benefitting from its own pleasant northern aspect, the front master bedroom is huge and has a split-system air-conditioner for climate control - just like the other two bedrooms.
The second bedroom is spacious and sits next to a lovely main bathroom with a shower, toilet and vanity. A tiled activity area at the back of the home separates the laundry and second bathroom from a versatile third bedroom - or study - with a high angled ceiling and folding doors leading outside to the backyard, where an open pergola, low-maintenance artificial turf, trees and lots of shade lie in wait. For something for private, this is where you want to be.
Stroll down to The Corner Dairy or the buzzing local precinct that includes the St Brigids Bar, coffee spots and some shops, with the International School of Western Australia and Doubleview Primary School both just around the corner.
The property also falls within the sought-after catchment zone for Churchlands SHS and Doubleview PS and is very close to bus stops (including one on your doorstep), lush local parks, more cafés, restaurants, new-look Karrinyup Shopping Centre, more shopping at Westfield Innaloo, Hale School, Newman College, St Mary's Anglican Girls' School, the freeway and even Stirling Train Station.
This prime location will impress you to no end. The word "convenient" is an understatement!
