There's something wonderfully appealing about a home that gives you choices, and 31 Noel Street is full of them. This adorable 1950s cottage sits on a generous 1,021sqm block, offering a lovely place to call home today along with some genuinely exciting possibilities for tomorrow. Step inside and its original personality immediately shines through, with high ceilings, decorative cornices and ceiling roses, picturesque windows and beautiful Jarrah floorboards bringing warmth and character. Although just two-bedrooms, they are both large rooms coupled with a home layout that feels generous and cosy rather than cramped. Plus, an extra retreat adjoining one bedroom creating the perfect little study, nursery, reading room or space to simply switch off at the end of the day.
The charm continues in the country-style kitchen, a welcoming everyday hub where morning coffees, casual dinners and conversations around the breakfast table will feel right at home. But what makes this property particularly interesting is how easily life here could change with you. A recently renovated separate outbuilding provides a laundry, storage and second toilet, while the cottage itself offers scope to uncover more of its past, including Jarrah flooring beneath the kitchen and living-room lino and an old fireplace currently concealed in the lounge. It's a home you can enjoy just as it is, lovingly improve over time, or potentially incorporate into much bigger plans.

• Elevated block with scarp outlook with build potential to capture City Views
• Close proximity to Midland with shops, hospital, and public transport within easy reach
And those bigger plans are where things get exciting. With good driveway access down the side plus a rear right of way, this sizeable block opens the door to all sorts of ideas. Subject to Shire of Mundaring approval, there may be potential to modify the existing cottage for use as a granny flat while creating a brand-new residence at the rear, perhaps taking advantage of the block's upward slope to capture scarp and city views with a two-storey design. Alternatively, retain the cottage as it is and explore options for adding a workshop, granny flat and/or studio. Or forget building altogether and simply enjoy having surplus land around you: plant fruit trees, establish veggie beds and a chicken coop, create your own food forest, or make plans for that pool and workshop you've always wanted.
Come for the cottage charm, stay for the land, and imagine just how much 31 Noel Street could become.
