Grand Old Dame

This is quintessential Victoria Park living!

You'll love this timber framed, jarrah weatherboard clad, worker's cottage with iron roof.
Built in 1921, if only the walls could talk, imagine the tales this home could tell!

Elevated above street level on a front 264m2 strata block this house has in the past been used as a three bedroom home, with the dining table located in the large kitchen.
Currently configured as a two bedroom home, there is the option to have a separate formal dining room.

The modern kitchen sits at the heart of the home and is a light filled room with a freestanding stainless cooker, dishwasher, plenty of storage and acres of bench space.

The home features high ceilings, wide polished jarrah boards and a unique facade of faux block-work ( carved from jarrah!) and stucco render.

The fully fenced front yard and the elevated front verandah provide a private eyrie from which to watch the honeyeaters in your garden and survey the passing world (I am also reliably informed that 49A Gresham Street has Victoria Park's BEST fig tree in the front garden. Enjoy fresh with goat's cheese and a drizzle of honey).

A large open plan living room opens directly to the paved back court yard.
Perfect for shady indoor outdoor summertime living ( anyone for lazy afternoon naps under the peppermint tree?)

Extras;
• Abundant passionfruit vine
• Lemon tree has started bearing fruit
• 2 kaffir lime trees (leaves are perfect in curries), plus there are large rosemary bushes front and back and Italian parsley grows wild along the side of the home (driveway side)
• Reverse cycle air-con (lounge and bedrooms)
• Lockable pet door at the rear of the home
• Under the home is dry so it can be used for extra storage
• The common driveway to the rear gate of the property is helpful for furniture and large pots
• The best local haunt! Duncan Street Store is just up the road and has the most amazing Jamaican soul food on Wed & Fri nights, the rest of the time it's a great café (e.g. home-made crumpets and corn bread).

Location is everything.
A stroll to the train station and Perth's most vibrant foodie and coffee strip, makes this home practically the centre of the universe!
Easy access to the City, Curtin, Optus Stadium, Burswood Resort and the Swan River.

Don't hesitate.
They aren't making 100 year old homes anymore!

With the best of modern living and the charm of yesteryear.
