Some addresses simply don't come around often and this is one of them.
Set on a generous 563sqm block in the heart of South Perth, 36A Hampden Street offers something increasingly hard to find so close to the river and the city skyline: space, and the freedom to make it your own.
Downstairs, vaulted ceilings and rendered brick walls set a light-filled, gallery-like tone in the formal living and dining zone; a considered space with room to display art, host a dinner party, or simply retreat with a book beneath the double-height windows.
The dramatic raked ceilings throughout the home were designed by architect Peter Overman, lending the interiors a sculptural, light-catching quality rarely found in homes of this era.
The open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the true heart of the home - the kitchen itself is warm and workable, with timber benchtops, gas cooking, a butler's-style window, and glass-fronted cabinetry that keeps everyday living feeling considered rather than cluttered.
Tucked into the corner of the living area, a built-in study nook overlooks the garden — a quiet spot to work from home with a green outlook instead of a wall in front of you.
The four bedrooms are generous and light-filled, each with its own character. Two bathrooms include a spa-bath finished in classic tile with a glass-block window, offering a genuine moment of retreat at the end of the day.
But it's the garden that will steal your heart. Step out to a substantial timber deck under a established pergola, strung with lights and made for long lunches and warm evenings, before the space unfolds into a sprawling lawn, complete with a swing hung from the garden's well established tree. It's the kind of backyard that becomes the backdrop to childhood memories, framed by greenery and complete privacy on every side.
South Perth living means the Swan River foreshore, the Old Mill, and the café strips of Mends Street and Angelo Street are all within easy reach, with the CBD just a short drive or ferry ride across the water. Zoned to sought-after local schools and minutes from Perth Zoo and South Perth's leafy parklands, this is a location that continues to hold its own as one of the city's most tightly held riverside suburbs.
Opportunities on blocks this size, in this pocket, don't last. Whether you're dreaming of a renovation, a rebuild, or simply want room to grow, 36A Hampden Street is worth a conversation.
