WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF!
Nestled behind a fairy tale picket fence, on a manicured yet easy-care 506m² Green Title allotment on Kensington's most desirable street, this charming character home is now yours to own.
Thoughtfully renovated and cleverly extended over time, pairing period features with contemporary conveniences, this picture-perfect abode is the quintessential family home.
Rustic jarrah floorboards greet you on entry, hinting at the rich history which awaits you inside. Keeping with tradition, there are three generous bedrooms (all with built-in robes) positioned at the front of the home which branch out from the wide hallway, providing clever separation from the main living zone. A spacious central study nook provides a retreat for homework or working from home.
Venture further and you'll discover an expansive open plan lounge and dining area where natural light, high ceilings and bespoke lighting create an awesome sense of space. The adjacent kitchen boasts European appliances, ample storage and preparation space and a breakfast bar.
From here, glass stacker doors create a seamless indoor/outdoor flow, where entertainers will appreciate the large undercover decked alfresco area, the perfect place to host family and friends all year round. This will make you the envy of all your friends. A sparkling below ground swimming pool invites you in and an easy-care lawn provides room for your children and your pets to play.
Enviably located amongst quality homes on a quiet tree-lined street, within close proximity to Kensington Primary School, Ernest Johnson Oval and a plethora of public transport options, this is the ultimate lifestyle destination.
There are insufficient superlatives to describe how special this home is and the feelings it evokes, so be amongst the first to view and make the rest of your life the best of your life!

Kensington overview
Kensington is a small suburb bound by South Terrace in the south and Canning Highway in the west. Developed in the post-war years, the suburb was named after the former Kensington Park Racecourse, which was most likely named after William Samuel Cox's Kensington Park Racecourse, in Melbourne. It is in a convenient location close to a number of inner-city urban hubs and just a few kilometres from Perth City.
