49 North Street, Midland WA 6056

CENTRAL, BUT WORLDS APART

There are houses you simply live in and then there are houses with a story to tell.

Tucked into one of Midland's increasingly interesting historic pockets, this beautifully reimagined circa-1896 terrace is anything but ordinary. Original tuck-pointed brickwork, soaring ceilings and bull-nosed verandas sit comfortably alongside polished concrete, warm jarrah floors and a distinctly industrial, contemporary aesthetic.

For those who appreciate architecture, history, good design and the pleasure of living somewhere just a little different, 49 North Street offers an intriguing blend of old and new.

Thoughtfully restored and extended, the main residence is filled with natural light, high ceilings and an easy connection between indoors and out. Two formal bedrooms are complemented by a generous attic/loft an ideal artist's studio, creative workspace, guest room, yoga space or simply somewhere to escape.

The open-plan living and dining area is wonderfully spacious, with large windows and glass doors bringing the gardens inside. The modern kitchen adds a subtle industrial edge with stainless-steel benchtops, a 900mm oven and five-burner gas cooktop.

Outside, a beautiful timber deck, landscaped gardens and sunny courtyard create the perfect setting for long lunches and late afternoon drinks. And yes there's even the original outdoor 'dunny', a wonderfully preserved piece of history and an excellent conversation starter.

THEN THERE'S THE SURPRISE OUT BACK....
