REBUILD OR REIMAGINE
One look at this solid & spacious mid-century home & you’ll see the incredible potential to bring her back to her former glory (think newly-revealed jarrah floors, exposed beams, a garden in need of TLC etc.) OR knock her down & build your dream home on the near-level, wide frontage lot. Ask us for a concept plan if you’re seeking inspiration!
Located on a quiet street east of Riseley Street footsteps from the Mount Pleasant border & a 15-minute stroll from the river foreshore, it’s easy to see why this portion of Booragoon is a family favourite. With an increasing number of new & renovated homes popping up in the neighbourhood to enhance the surrounding streetscape, you really can’t go wrong here. All you need is vision, budget & time to make it happen.
