That Warm and Fuzzy Feeling.
What we love…
… is the splendid original charm and character that pervades this gorgeous 3 bedroom 1 bathroom cottage-style home on a tranquil Maylands street, nestled on a generous 506sqm (approx.) with R40 zoning and plenty of potential for the future, with the existing residence in excellent condition for either renting out or calling your own for many years to come
… are the high ceilings, solid (and re-sanded/re-coated) wooden Marri floorboards, decorative ceiling cornices and feature skirting boards that help preserve the property’s classic nostalgia of yesteryear, alongside a host of modern conveniences, an updated kitchen and a stylishly-renovated bathroom
… is the welcoming open-plan living, dining and kitchen area that makes an instant first impression with its warming Norseman wood-burner fireplace, split-system air-conditioning unit, two gas bayonets for additional heating, a ceiling fan and ample power points
… is the spacious backyard setting, made up of a full-width entertaining patio, an outdoor Kimberley barbecue, a wood-fire pizza oven, elevated rear lawns and a large powered workshop shed – a dream for the budding “tradie” of the house
… is the super-convenient location in between both the Beaufort Street and Whatley Crescent café and restaurant strips and only footsteps away from Maylands Train Station and bus stops, with trendy bars, shopping centres, excellent schools, lush local parks, the river, the city and so much more all very much within arm’s reach

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.
