Retro Riverside Charm - VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY

Built in 1975, this four-bedroom, two-bathroom brick and tile home is a rarity, especially in this riverside precinct. You can't go wrong at this address, situated on a 1012sqm block, you're within walking distance of the Swan River and the Maylands 8th Avenue/Whatley Cresent café and shopping strip.

The current owners have embraced this much-loved home's retro charm, allowing the new owners to also enjoy the era or update it with some cosmetic changes. This solid home offers a formal lounge, dining room, and a casual family room with a well-equipped kitchen at the heart of the living areas. Just think of what you could do with all that space.

A spacious primary bedroom with a walk-through robe connects to an ensuite, providing plenty of separation from the rest of the home for families of all generations.

Generous alfresco dining beneath the pitched patio is a dream for year-round entertaining, particularly during the warmer months with the below-ground pool and a gazebo. Even with a substantial home and pool, this generous block has plenty of room for the lush lawn shaded by mature trees.

From the moment you arrive at this remarkable home and meander along the wrap-around verandah and into the welcoming foyer, you'll immediately feel like you've come home.

This superb location is only a short walk from Maylands' many cafes, shops, bars, specialty stores, supermarkets, buses, Maylands Train Station, Bardon Park, riverside walking trails, Maylands Peninsula Primary School and the Maylands Yacht Club. Also on your doorstep are the Maylands Peninsula Public Golf Course, Gibbney Reserve, Edith Cowan University, Ascot Racecourse, Perth Airport and Perth's CBD.

R50 Zoning offers the developer the chance to build x10 Apartments on this large premium lot close to the Train Station, City and River.

Maylands overview

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.

Life in Maylands

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.
