WHAT THE OWNER SAYS
“The location is unbeatable for convenience and lifestyle. At 40 Melrose Street you’re in the middle of everything and yet it’s so private and tucked away. Entertaining in the front yard and looking out over the expanse of gum trees and melaleucas you’d never know you were inner city. 40 Melrose Street has so much history and heart; the original features of the 1920’s build (floorboards, ceilings, timber window frames) have been beautifully preserved and the newly landscaped outdoors and renovated kitchen/bathrooms make for a relaxed and happy home full of character and warmth. The Leederville neighbourhood is quite simply the best – people are friendly, there are outdoor green spaces around every corner, and the Oxford Street strip with its totally original mix of restaurants, cafes, bars and shops is one of a kind. We have absolutely loved living here.”
