A cleverly designed home punching well above its footprint.
Don’t you just love a juicy surprise? This home is tucked away behind a high wall, which only makes the big flex moment when you walk through the door all that more exhilarating: it’s been totally and completely renovated from top to lovely bottom. A low-maintenance overachiever, it delivers on style and practicality while also being ridiculously easy to live in. All at once. The leadlight front door is very this postcode, but then opens to a fresh, contemporary interior where crisp finishes, warm timber-look floors, and smart design choices make all your moments feel a little more polished. The kitchen is, frankly, a show off with a generous breakfast bar for morning coffees and post-night out debriefs, a pantry that will swallow up the clutter, 900mm SMEG 5-burner cooktop/oven for the ambitious (or UberEats reheaters, no judgement), and enough storage to keep countertops blissfully free of the usual. The open-plan dining and main living areas form the heart of the home, with direct access to the side of the property and a split-system air conditioner for year-round comfort, while the separate front living room opens onto a private courtyard- perfect for relaxed entertaining or quiet afternoons.
The bedrooms are thoughtfully separated from the main living spaces, with the generous main suite creating a peaceful retreat of its own, complete with a private ensuite and split-system air conditioning for year-round comfort. The very spacious guest bedroom is equally well considered, enjoying its own semi-ensuite and split-system air conditioning - bringing a little boutique hotel energy for visiting family and friends. Then, there are extras! Renovated laundry, dedicated mudroom-style drop zone leading to a secure walk-in storeroom, a carport with remote-controlled roller door, plus the bonus of a dedicated gravel parking area to the front. It’s a home that’s answered everything before you’ve even had to ask.
Location-wise, this is one of those addresses that quickly turns you into a fabulous and proper regular. Beaufort Street is a skip at just 400m away, meaning coffee, cocktails, catch-ups, and the best dinner plans are all comfortably within strolling distance. Grab a morning flat white from Chef & Co (400m) or Little Picture Cafe (1.3km), settle in for a long lunch at Bistro Massilia (500m), book dinner at Cecchi's (350m), Chakra (1.3km), or Kasama's (1.2km), or satisfy a take away craving with Fish Boss (1km) and Jessie's Curry Kitchen (4.5km) both ready to save the day. The vibrant Maylands strip (1km) is also super close to home, while the sought-after Inglewood precinct is virtually at your doorstep. Daily essentials are equally effortless, with Coles Inglewood (550m) and Aldi (850m) just around the corner, and Meltham Train Station only 850m away when the city calls. Speaking of which, Perth CBD sits approximately 5.5km from home and Perth Airport around 8km away, making work trips and weekends away brilliantly convenient. Families will appreciate being close to Inglewood Primary School (1km), Chisholm Catholic College (1.6km) and John Forrest Secondary School (2.3), but let's be honest: regardless of your stage of life, the real luxury here is spending less time commuting and more time deciding where you're eating tonight.

Maylands is a riverside inner-city suburb approximately 4.5 kilometres northeast of Perth, serviced by the Midland railway line on the northern bank of the Swan River. In 1896 the name "Maylands" was first used to identify the area, appearing on a poster advertising a land auction. However the exact reason how the area got its name is something of a mystery.
The suburb was once a source of clay for brick and tile making at Maylands Brickworks, and the pits from these activities are now part of a golf course and residential area. It was home to Perth's main airport until the early 1960s, and the facilities were converted to a training area for the Western Australian Police Service.
Maylands is known as a cultural and creative hub as it is home to The West Australian Ballet Centre and home to the WA Youth Jazz Orchestra. In recent years, new bars, cafés and restaurants, along with gourmet food and retail outlets have all contributed to an ongoing transformation of the town centre into a lively, diverse and inclusive destination. There are numerous shopping centres in the area, 15 parks and reserves and two primary schools.
