68 Stanley Street, Nedlands WA 6009

First Time Offered in Nearly Five Decades

Held by the one family since 1977, this is the kind of home that rarely reaches the open market - and when it does, it arrives with a story worth continuing.

Set on an elevated 1012sqm block just meters from Nedlands Golf Course, the home commands its position with the confidence of a house built to last. The elevation gives it presence from the street and light throughout, and a parcel of this size in this location is always in high demand.

Step inside and the 1940s character is immediately, unmistakably present. High decorative ceilings, timber floors (currently protected by carpet) a gracious entrance foyer sets the tone, opening to a generously proportioned formal lounge and a separate dining room - the kind of considered, room-by-room floorplan that modern builders no longer attempt.

Three bedrooms and three bathrooms include a genuinely rare inclusion: a fully self-contained studio. It's the answer to the problem so many families are trying to solve - a teenager who wants their own space, parents moving closer to family, or guests who'd rather not share a hallway. Flexible accommodation like this, already built and ready to use, is almost impossible to find in character homes of this era.

What sets this home apart is condition. Nearly fifty years of single-family ownership have left it impeccably maintained internally, the period detail intact rather than stripped away or awkwardly modernised. You are not buying a renovation project. You are buying a genuinely lovely home with room to add your own chapter.
