Held by the same owners for more than 40 years, this character home presents a rare opportunity to secure a substantial 809sqm R30 block in a highly convenient Gosnells location. Across the road from Mary Carroll Park, with a separate studio/granny flat already on the property, this is a home with genuine character, plenty of space and exciting future potential.
INSIDE
The home retains the charm and character of its era while providing a practical layout for comfortable living. The main living room features a large open window that fills the space with natural light, along with a classic fireplace.
There are three bedrooms, one with a unique nursery access to the master bedroom, a central bathroom and a functional kitchen provide the essentials. Storage nooks and intriguing details let the home's original character give it a warmth and individuality that is increasingly difficult to find, while ducted evaporative air conditioning and an alarm system add a modern touch.
Having been lovingly held by the current owners for more than four decades, the property offers an opportunity to move straight in, renovate over time or explore its development potential.
OUTSIDE
Set on a generous 809sqm block, the property offers considerably more space than many homes in the area. A separate studio/granny flat provides additional flexibility for extended family, guests, working from home or additional accommodation. There is storage available in a couple garden sheds and a larger shed in the backyard, and a delightful antique wood fire bbq ready to gather around for an evening cook up.
The R30 zoning provides subdivision potential, giving buyers the opportunity to investigate future development options, with easy side access creating an option to retaining the existing home, subject to the necessary approvals. Buyers must do their own due diligence.

Directly across the road, Mary Carroll Park provides an exceptional extension of the home's living space, with outstanding park facilities, walking trails, open green spaces, playgrounds, picnic areas and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors.
The location is equally convenient for commuters, with Gosnells Train Station and other public transport options just minutes away, while local shops, schools and everyday amenities are all within easy reach.
