This delightfully-renovated 3 bedroom 1 bathroom circa-1950s home has managed to preserve most of its original character over the years and leaves very little for you to do, other than to simply bring your belongings, move straight on in and enjoy the warmth and charm it so impressively radiates.
Solid wooden floorboards, soaring high ceilings, classic skirting boards and feature wall trimmings are commonplace throughout the residence, with a welcoming front lounge room your first point of call once you step foot inside. There, you will discover a gas bayonet and a wood-fire heater to keep you cosy in the winter, as well as a ceiling fan that complements the air-conditioner throughout the summer months.
The front master bedroom has a ceiling fan of its own too, as well as ample built-in-wardrobe space. A separate kitchen and meals area is sleek and stylish, comprising of timber and sparkling stone bench tops, a floating island breakfast bar for central dining or quick bites, subway-tile splashbacks, double sinks, loads of cupboard storage options and quality stainless-steel gas-cooktop, oven, range-hood and dishwasher appliances.
There is also a study area, whilst the second bedroom plays host to a ceiling fan and built-in robes of its own. A stunning bathroom enjoys the luxury of a free-standing bathtub, separate rain shower and a toilet, directly opposite a well-appointed laundry that features a separate second toilet, more storage space and a side door to access the yard with.
At the rear, double doors from the inside reveal a lovely entertaining patio and deck that splendidly overlooks the backyard and leafy gardens in complete privacy. Quality concrete aggregate frames this part of the property, keeping everything “low-
maintenance” at the same time.
Walk to Bassendean Primary School, both the Bassendean and Ashfield Train Stations and the Bassendean Shopping Centre from here, as well as Old Perth Road where bus stops, cafes, restaurants, community amenities and even the Bassendean Hotel are all so easily accessible. The famous Bassendean Oval and lush local parklands bordering our picturesque Swan River are also nearby – the latter, in fact, only a few streets away. Other outstanding schools and educational facilities, additional bus routes into the city and major arterial roads leading to Perth Airport, the Swan Valley and beyond are also in very close proximity, making this superb location far more appealing than most!
