Quintessentially Quaint!

Prepare to fall in love with this timeless 4 bedroom 1 bathroom wartime charmer, where every corner tells a story and every detail delights the eye.

As pretty as a picture and brimming with character, this enchanting home blends vintage elegance with modern comfort, creating a warm and inviting sanctuary that feels both classic and completely liveable.

The residence also backs on to the lovely Morris Mundy Reserve – from which you can directly access via a private rear gate. Your very own backyard retreat is almost as impressive as the neighbouring parkland, graced by a handy garden shed, a larger workshop shed and a covered patio that encourages outdoor alfresco entertaining, as well as playing host to a protected clothesline.

Inside, gleaming wooden Bamboo floorboards dominate the spacious and sunken living room at the back of the house – benefitting from direct patio and yard access. It is so pleasantly overlooked by a central open-plan dining and renovated-kitchen area with split-system air-conditioning, painted brickwork, glass splashbacks, a stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher and quality stainless-steel range-hood and gas-cooktop/oven appliances.

The functional laundry extends outside for drying, as well as separating the toilet from a light, bright and stylish bathroom – open shower, separate bathtub, feature mosaic tiling, powder vanity and all.

Solid wooden floorboards highlight the sleeping quarters towards the front of the layout, inclusive of an enormous master bedroom – comprising of wall-to-wall built-in wardrobes and split-system air-conditioning for climate control. The massive second bedroom across the entry hallway has its own feature fireplace, with the carpeted third bedroom doubling as a potential study – and the opposing fourth bedroom made up of its own built-in robes, as well as another split-system air-conditioner. The floor plan’s wildcard is a spacious storage attic for all of your personal belongings you want out of sight, but not necessarily out of mind.

Embrace a leisurely stroll to Kensington Primary School and The Little Banksia Café, with bus stops and other lush local parks also nestled only metres away from your front doorstep, for living convenience. Top private schools in Wesley College and Penrhos College are nearby too, along with the Kensington Montessori School, Kent Street Senior High School, the buzzing Albany Highway food and coffee precinct, multiple shopping centres and the picturesque South Perth foreshore, overlooking our famous Swan River.

You don’t want to pass on this rare opportunity to own a slice of history, wrapped in style and heart - ready for your next chapter!

Kensington overview

Kensington is a small suburb bound by South Terrace in the south and Canning Highway in the west. Developed in the post-war years, the suburb was named after the former Kensington Park Racecourse, which was most likely named after William Samuel Cox's Kensington Park Racecourse, in Melbourne. It is in a convenient location close to a number of inner-city urban hubs and just a few kilometres from Perth City. 

Life in Kensington

A number of parks and reserves dominate the Kensington landscape providing plenty of scenic vistas and open public space for locals to explore. The retail and amenity requirements of residents are largely serviced by establishments in surrounding areas, however there is one supermarket within the suburb. Kensington borders Perth's Technology Park, is close to Curtin University and features one local school, Kensington Primary School.
