Renovators delight on the high side
On the high side of the street looking straight out to Monument Hill, this is a breezy, open position for a mid-20th century home with lots of personality and plenty of potential. Here’s your chance to be part of the Blinco Street zone – a city-side precinct transformed with cool new residential architecture and creative enterprises. Stroll down the hill to town or over to George Street restaurants and boutique shopping, and walk to East Fremantle Primary or John Curtin College of the Arts.
Set back above an expansive front lawn, the veranda is a lovely place to sit and enjoy the outlook, with the monument framed in the view. Leadlight doors and windows add character detail, and the home opens to a jarrah-floored entry lobby and an airy atmosphere. Through a wide opening edged with timber detailing of the era, there is open flow to the spacious living area, where leadlight double doors lead to another large north-facing room. This offers flexibility for a third bedroom, second living area or separate dining. Adjacent is the roomy kitchen, with plenty of space for the kitchen table at the heart of it.
The generous master bedroom is at the front of the home enjoying that wonderful open outlook, and features the deco ceilings found throughout. The traditional sleepout/sunroom extends across the rear, with a second bedroom, separate laundry and handy extra shower. Sliding doors open to the covered patio, with a big garden shed to the side.
This elevated location is a real gem, with the opportunity to bring your own perspective and make your choices: live in and enjoy, renew, rent, landbank … or even just create a big deck with all that space out front to make the most of this great spot in Chalmers Street.
