42 Hope Street, Watermans Bay WA 6020

Between the beach and bush is exactly where you want to be

THE HOME

Elevated even beyond its lush and leafy frontage is this charming 3 bedroom 1 bathroom home on a sprawling 1,133sqm (approx.) block that sits right between the iconic Mount Flora Regional Museum and Star Swamp's stunning bushland nature reserve. Pristine bush and treetop views are prevalent now and will be even more so in the near future when R20 zoning and development potential comes into play. Subject to council and planning approval, you really can dare to dream here.

The house itself is more than solid and can be comfortably lived in - or even rented out to secure a little bit of extra income - before you make your next move. High ceilings, solid wooden floorboards, feature ceiling cornices and skirting are all commonplace and help preserve the residence's original nostalgia of yesteryear.

An L-shaped front lounge and dining room is large enough to both relax in and enjoy a meal in relative comfort. At the rear, a bushy and leafy "blank canvas" of a backyard can be whatever you want it to be, capturing some sea breezes from the Bay, as well as benefitting from its own slice of the scenic green vista on the other side of Hope Street.
