This delightful circa-1960s 3 bedroom 1 bathroom street-front home on 450sqm of land is graced by a host of original features, as well as river glimpses from the front verandah deck that offer a preview of clear water and city views from any potential two-storey build or addition in the near future.
High ceilings and solid bleached Jarrah wooden floorboards are commonplace throughout the property, including within a spacious front lounge room. Just adjacent is an open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area that looks out over the outdoor decking where plenty of natural morning sunlight meets a pleasant aspect to Perth's rolling hills.
A light and bright front master bedroom is the pick of the sleeping quarters and is air-conditioned for complete comfort. At the rear of the property, you will find a stunning alfresco-entertaining deck with a built-in bar and a separate storeroom - that can also be utilised as either a "sleepout" or a tradesman's workshop, a pitched patio area for extra space and a garden shed for storage.
Nestled within the catchment zones for both Melville Primary School and Melville Senior High School, close to shopping at the newly-named Westfield Booragoon and just minutes away from parks, public transport, the freeway, our picturesque Swan River and Fremantle, this private residence could not be any better positioned. It really is a gem of a find!

Melville is a small suburb 11 kilometres south of Perth City. Its two square kilometre land area is bound to the north by Canning Highway and Leach Highway in the south. Melville's most substantial development took place in the 1950s.
Though very close to many commercial sectors just outside of its boundaries, Melville is largely removed from urbanisation. Home to a number of parks and reserves, the suburb provides locals with numerous native public spaces to explore and enjoy. There are also two local schools, Melville Primary School and Melville Senior High School, and a recreation centre.
