Increasingly, laneway houses have become a hot topic in urban living-and for a good reason! These cozy, standalone homes, securely tucked away behind congested primary streets, offer a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of busy roads. On primary streets, street parking is often a challenge, noise is constant, and through traffic creates a steady source of anxiety and stress that detracts from the tranquil lifestyle many of us seek. Laneway properties, by their very nature, largely eliminate these issues, bringing a much-welcomed return to the quieter, neighbor-friendly "Australian Way" of life. They offer the best of both worlds: a serene lifestyle with easy access to all the amenities and benefits of a relaxed, fun-loving coastal suburb, complete with stunning beaches, cafés, restaurants, parks, gardens, schools, shopping centers, and even charming smaller grocery stores and old-fashioned hardware stores where you can form personal relationships with the owners.
Now, let's focus on a particular property we're excited to present: Number 34 Motteram Lane. Tucked away down a peaceful rear laneway, this hidden gem offers a rare blend of privacy and potential. Through exhaustive negotiations with the local government, this property stands out with one major difference-it's the first and only block on Motteram Lane to have its own unique Motteram Lane mailing and services address. What does this mean? No primary street address means no narrow walkways, no unsecured access from the main road, and no address confusion. With this, you get significantly better security, less hassle, and much more peace of mind.
Imagine the benefits: no more worrying about unwanted intruders, no lugging heavy rubbish bins down dark, narrow walkways, especially on wet winter days or sweltering summer mornings. Picture this: you're freshly showered and dressed for work, but now you face the daunting task of navigating a narrow path filled with trip hazards-power domes, electrical poles, mailboxes (one of which is yours), abandoned shopping trolleys, bicycles, and shrubs planted with good intentions but now overgrown, brushing against you as you go. Not only are you dodging obstacles, but you're also fighting for space with other bins on the verge and cars parked everywhere. You check your mailbox, only to find a note saying a parcel awaits at the post office, but it's already closed. If not collected soon, it will be returned to sender. Having your own dedicated Motteram address means you could easily install a parcel drop box right at your front door.
This property is a true "blank canvas"-ready for a quality, low-maintenance modern home. The 216sqm vacant block holds the promise of breathtaking ocean views to the famous Rottnest Island-just build up and watch the coastline unfold before you! The secluded setting provides the perfect foundation for something truly special. Additionally, you'll enjoy the convenience of walking to cafés along both Sackville Terrace and Scarborough Beach Road, while trendy restaurants, lush local parks, public transport, top schools, the revitalized Scarborough Beach Esplanade, and wonderful shopping centers-including the stunning new-look Karrinyup precinct and Westfield Innaloo-are all just minutes away from your future doorstep.
No more disappointment when ordering Uber Eats and having your meal delivered to the house at the front, only for it to arrive cold or mishandled. Furthermore, emergency responders can quickly and easily find your front door in case of an emergency. Perhaps the most important benefit: security. The usual concerns about vandalism or vagrancy that come with dark, narrow walkways leading to the vulnerable rear of your property are eliminated.
This is a secret location with a soon-to-be Motteram Lane address that will inspire your imagination even further. Here is where your next chapter begins, with a secure, peaceful, and more manageable lifestyle, all while still being close to everything you need.
