OPPORTUNITY ON OTWAY!
Sitting privately behind a gorgeous white picket fence on a delightful 589sqm (approx.) corner block is this adorable 3 bedroom 1 bathroom home where original circa-1920s character of yesteryear meets a splendid contemporary ambience - the ultra-convenient "close to everything" location simply the cherry on top.
The wraparound verandah entry deck is the perfect place from which to sit back, relax and watch the kids at play, even providing access to the rear where lush green lawns grace a two-tiered backyard complemented by shade-creating trees, a paved courtyard for quiet contemplation and a space to put your barbecue. Charming slate floor tiles pervade the heart of the residence - a sublime open-plan kitchen and dining area that keeps meals separate from conversation and at the same time boasts a gas cooktop, a stainless-steel Westinghouse under-bench oven, a sleek white dishwasher, a double-door storage pantry, a pleasant leafy aspect through the window and much, much more.
A separate light-filled lounge room is warmed by wooden floorboards and even has its own separate study nook that can easily be utilised for storage. Two of the three bedrooms - including the massive master - have fireplaces, whilst the stylish bathroom has been impressively renovated to include feature subway tiles, a bathtub, showerhead, vanity and toilet.
Nestled opposite bus stops, only walking distance away from restaurants, the local IGA Xpress supermarket, Scotch College, medical facilities and Swanbourne Train Station and very close to the world-class Claremont Quarter shopping precinct, beautiful Lake Claremont, the Claremont Aquatic Centre, the sprawling Allen Park, Lake Claremont Golf Course, Swanbourne Primary School, other excellent educational facilities, cafes, Swanbourne Beach and even Fremantle, this absolute gem has "living convenience" written all over it. What a terrific buy!
