TAKE A JOURNEY BACK IN TIME TO CIRCA 1910
We seldom get the opportunity to find a home in such original condition. Many of us have seen this home from the outside, but the inside has remained a mystery till now, having only been sold a couple of times in its long lifetime. So, 'let’s do a time warp now' and we'll give you a preview of what to expect, (saving some of the details for your inspection ).
Hard to see from the street is the exquisite facade, with it's tuck-pointed brickwork, leadlight front door, casement windows and a beautiful veranda. Inside, following the typical floorplan of the era, a central hallway opens on both sides to 4 well-proportioned rooms each having features of The Arts and Craft movement (Art Nouveau) a style that is more simplistic, less exuberant than the fussy Victorian era. To the left is the kitchen and on the other side the bathroom, leading to the 'sleep out' at the rear and an activity room. The kitchen and bathroom have had an update over the years, however, on the whole overall this is an opportunity to be creative without the expense of removing someone else’s catastrophes.
Sitting comfortably over the years on its original 674sqm plot of land there is so much scope here, it's the perfect property to create your 'masterpiece.' Something that would have changed since the early 1900's is the location. The original owners would have a bit of a culture shock to see all the changes in the area.
Now, this is an exciting area to live, right on the borders of both Inglewood and Mount Lawley. There are schools, shops and parks close by, an amazing choice of cafes and restaurants. Best of all it's close to the railway station, for quick trips to the city, stress-free access to the new football stadium, or concerts in West Perth.
What is it they say about 'location, location, location!

Maylands overview
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.
Life in Maylands
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.
