SOLD WITH EMILY GARDEN
Are you a dreamer, developer, or someone with a big vision and an even bigger toolbox who doesn’t mind rolling up their sleeves? There’s no hiding that this property needs a little... okay a lot of TLC, it is rough around the edges and the middle too, but if you look beyond the creaky (newly polished!) floors and the shell of a swimming pool that is crying out to be returned to its former glory you’ll see pure promise. To be sold strictly “as is” this is your chance to turn dust into gold or an excuse to have a demolition party either way bring your imagination and maybe a tetanus shot and let’s make it happen. Set on a generous 835 sq. metre block with proposed R20/R30 zoning* that means the potential to subdivide this unique property is the perfect canvas for developers or anyone with a big vision (*subject to council approvals.)

Established during the post-war years, significant growth didn't occur until the late 1950s and lasted through to the 1980s. A slight population increase was experienced during the 1990s, but since has remained relatively stable.
Life in Thornlie
Thornlie presents an appealing suburban lifestyle away from the hectic nature of inner-city living. An array of reserves and parks add to the suburban charm of Thornlie, while strong transport links keep the suburb well connected to the Perth metropolitan region.
