42 Leake Street, Bayswater WA 6053

A true Bayswater classic, this circa-1910 character home captures the essence of character living, rich in history, beautifully reimagined, and designed for modern life.

Set proudly on a corner block along a tree-lined street, it has been lovingly transformed over three decades, blending original charm with thoughtful updates. High ceilings, original timber detailing, and rare pressed tin ceilings celebrate its heritage, while two renovated bathrooms, one with a clawfoot bath dual vanity basins. Both bring modern comfort and style.

At its heart, a soaring kitchen with a statement stone island and skylights flows to the dining and sunken living zone beneath a timber-and-steel mezzanine. Bi-fold doors open wide, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Upstairs, a light-filled retreat offers flexibility as a third bedroom, studio, or workspace.

Outside, life slows down. Entertain under the alfresco, fire up the pizza oven, or unwind in the private, established gardens.

Fully renovated and set on 602sqm with two car ports, workshop, and modern upgrades throughout, this is more than a home. It’s a lifestyle shaped by character, creativity, and years of care.
