405 Railway Road, Shenton Park WA 6008

Cute, cosy and confident in its street frontage, this charming residence knows exactly how to make every inch count — and look rather good doing it. Beyond a gated entry, a sunny north and west facing courtyard doubles as your private outdoor entertaining area, flowing directly into a welcoming open plan hub where abundant natural light also spills across to the stylishly renovated kitchen. Both rear bedrooms raise the roof — quite literally — with high angled ceilings and elevated east facing, tree lined views providing a rather lovely reason to open your eyes each morning. Even the bathroom gets clever, incorporating a discreet European style laundry that maximises both floor and wall space without compromising functionality. Bright, breezy and beautifully considered, this gem of a find proves you really don’t need acres of space to live large.

LOCATION
If you are a lover of locations, then look no further. Shenton Park Train Station, handy bus stops and a leafy collection of lush local parklands are virtually on your doorstep, meaning that the car may start developing abandonment issues. Wander a little further to the tranquil waters of Jualbup Lake and picturesque Rankin Park for morning walks, lazy weekend picnics or your regular dose of greenery, while the excellent Coles Local at Shenton Quarter keeps the fridge full without turning grocery shopping into an expedition. When the mood calls for more, the buzzing cafés, restaurants, bars, shopping and entertainment of Subiaco, Leederville and Wembley are all within easy reach, with iconic Kings Park, the Perth CBD and first class medical facilities also refreshingly close by. Lovely, lively and ridiculously well connected, this is one of those prominent addresses where almost everything is at your fingertips — and “too far” rarely enters the conversation.
