Lean in ready for Summer.
Things are heating up. Not the weather, obviously. But when it comes to scoring an apartment that’ll light up your life? You better believe it’s peak season and this hottie of a property will be top of your list. Snag it ASAP so when Summer rocks back around you’ll be sorted for style, socialising, and sangrias in the sunshine. Dreamy, right? The huge balcony overlooking Eighth Avenue is the perfect spot for hosting occasional soirees. Or regular ones, let’s be honest. The walls offer privacy but the windows let the sun, fresh air, and good feelings flow freely. The architectural stylings and earthy palette out here would work brilliantly with big planters, sculptural art pieces, rustic outdoor furniture, and perhaps even a vine or two (faux if you want to keep it super low maintenance). Plus that sangria we mentioned. There’s plenty more to love indoors, though. Which is just as well given the Springtime warmth is still a little way off yet. Step back inside through the cool corner sliding doors and take another peek at that living area. The curved wall, kitchen bulkhead, and timber look flooring make this a stylish spot in which to get toasty on the couch or exchange smouldering looks with your new flame over a home cooked meal. Or perhaps both. Either way, no matter the time of year, this is your place to seek sweet escape (without having to ever leave town).
Location-wise, you’re golden. The Maylands social precinct is quite literally at your doorstep. Head out into the glorious world and find all your favourite foods, people, and activities right there! Start sunshiney days with a brilliant brunch and coffee at Mrs S. Café (35m). Or get sweet on Sherbert (150m)with their cupcakes and muffins and banana bread and… well, all of it. Lunches and dinners are just as enticing and are made even better when you’ve got your zestiest friends with you. Give Seasonal Brewing Co. (300m) a go, tuck in at Pizzeria Amore Mio (800m), grab gozleme at Oscar’s (60m), or soak up the incredible tunes and vibrant atmosphere, along with some drinks, at Lyric’s (180m). There are shops and services up and down the street where you can buy bunches of bright flowers, be pampered and styled to your heart’s content, score second-hand treasures, and get gifts of all kinds for your loved ones. As well as all that, Maylands train station is a 2 minute walk, which means city commutes are a breeze. And with the airport now connected by rail, you can escape the chilly weather for tropical holidays at the drop of a hat.

Maylands is a riverside inner-city suburb approximately 4.5 kilometres northeast of Perth, serviced by the Midland railway line on the northern bank of the Swan River. In 1896 the name "Maylands" was first used to identify the area, appearing on a poster advertising a land auction. However the exact reason how the area got its name is something of a mystery.
The suburb was once a source of clay for brick and tile making at Maylands Brickworks, and the pits from these activities are now part of a golf course and residential area. It was home to Perth's main airport until the early 1960s, and the facilities were converted to a training area for the Western Australian Police Service.
Maylands is known as a cultural and creative hub as it is home to The West Australian Ballet Centre and home to the WA Youth Jazz Orchestra. In recent years, new bars, cafés and restaurants, along with gourmet food and retail outlets have all contributed to an ongoing transformation of the town centre into a lively, diverse and inclusive destination. There are numerous shopping centres in the area, 15 parks and reserves and two primary schools.
