59 Amherst Street, White Gum Valley WA 6162

A quiet cul de sac on the park is a prime location for a pristine home totally refreshed and recreated from a 50s original. With bright white interiors and jarrah floors, everything has been renewed, with light-filled living flowing to the alfresco and flourishing productive gardens beyond. Stroll through the park to primary school, walk to Wray Avenue and central Freo, and enjoy the community feel and green surrounds – plus the sound investment of possible future subdivision.

The big bottlebrush and wide verge garden leads to more colourful native plantings framing the limestone portico. Inside, the original jarrah floors are in fine condition, and a bedroom overlooking the front garden would also make the ideal study. The master bedroom has a walk-in-robe and bright white en-suite, and the third bedroom enjoys the northern light, with another immaculate bathroom adjacent. The jarrah floors flow seamlessly to the extension, with a powder room near the open-plan kitchen and dining. The white theme keeps everything fresh and simple, with stone tops and island bench, glossy cabinetry above and below, and stainless steel appliances including dishwasher, wall oven and grill. The same finishes continue in the big laundry behind the kitchen, which also serves as a butler’s pantry with extensive storage.

A wood fire warms the kitchen/dining in winter, and timber double doors lead to the living room, surrounded by windows to embrace the lovely garden aspect. With blinds to make it an all-weather outdoor room, the alfresco is a great place to entertain, and to serve up some of the home-grown produce. Rubble stone walls define a series of productive spaces with veggie beds, citrus, olives, bananas, pawpaw, fig and grapevines, complete with a chook run and a big workshop at the bottom of the garden.

Storage is a real feature of the home, with attic storage accessed from the double garage, as well as a large storage area under the home. There is ample additional parking, including gated space for the boat or caravan down the wide side driveway. That access also enhances the possibility of future subdivision, which adds great value in this desirable parkside location.

Totally renovated, beautifully cared for, and with the bonus of those wonderful established gardens, this really is the easy way to feel right at home by the park.
