42 Gallop Road, Dalkeith WA 6009

Brilliantly located in the heart of one of Perth's most desirable, leafy suburbs, a stone's throw from the Nedlands Golf Course, on a huge level block, this property offers a versatile opportunity not to be missed. With an unusually wide 25.2m frontage, north-facing frontage on a rectangular 1012sqms, the potential for a grander street presence is unsurpassed. As it stands now, find a 5 bedroom home with character features, mature garden surrounds, eminently livable, easily rentable, family-friendly property in good condition.

There is a lot on offer here. Perfect for a thoughtful renovation, a wise investment, or as a development site, this home is also just a few minutes' walk to the quaint Dalkeith Village Shopping area, popular Dalkeith Primary School, established parklands, golf course, and the banks of the Swan.

Within the home itself, find heritage features such as original jarrah floorboards and 2.8m high ceilings, alongside modern conveniences including split system air conditioning, built-in robes, and a practical kitchen with gas stove top, double sinks, and dishwasher.

There is a separate laundry with a shower and WC adjoining the kitchen, a rear paved terrace, and an outdoor WC, as per the style of home at the time this was built in the early 1950s. In fact, this entire street is a steeped in history. James Gallop was one of the original landowners in the area and an old Gallop Road street sign still takes pride of place in the rear garden of this property.

Bright and airy with plenty of room to move, this well-maintained, single-level home is set back from the street, surrounded by tall trees, and enjoys a large garden that's as secure as it is peaceful. A pergola area makes for the ideal outdoor seating on a summer's day, while the relatively low maintenance lawn provides children with hours of outdoor fun.

Out the front, park the cars in the driveway and find plenty of space for your DIY in the single garage/workshop.

Of course, this is the kind of block that can be easily utilised as a prime development site - a chance to make your dream home become a reality.

Some of Perth's best schools are also nearby - Christ Church Grammar and Methodist Ladies' College are a short bus or car ride away - while the swathe of green at Nedlands Golf Club is visible from the front lawn.
