In a Word: Opportunity.
Set on a sprawling 1,014m² block in one of Bayswater’s desirable tree-lined pockets, 39 River Road is a home that perfectly blends timeless charm with thoughtful upgrades. From the herringbone brick fireplace to the glossy jarrah floors, every inch of this residence honours its era while embracing modern-day functionality.
The solid red brick façade opens into a warm, light-filled interior, where a Tasmanian oak kitchen with granite benchtops becomes the true heart of the home. Every detail here has been considered—bespoke full-height laundry cabinetry, freshly painted interiors in Dulux Wash & Wear, and composite decking that welcomes you at the front porch. Roller shutters provide peace and privacy, while the landscaped backyard offers a blank canvas for future dreams, with a playground-ready lawn, a powered 3x6m shed, and a fully cleared rear yard ready to build on or subdivide (subject to approvals).
Whether you’re looking to move straight in, invest, or future-proof your lifestyle with development potential, this is one of those rare homes where the foundations—both literally and metaphorically—are already perfect.
