Overflowing with warmth and personality, this 1940s Bungalow has a special charisma that is so rare to find in real estate these days. From the high ornate ceilings, to the handsome jarrah floorboards and leadlight windows. This is a beautiful character house, but it's also chic & modern in all the right places.
Freshly renovated, the kitchen boasts stone benchtops, a subway tiled splash back, and heritage style finishes that ensure it is in keeping with the integrity of the home. It's equipped with top quality European appliances (including a 6-burner stainless steel freestanding oven/stove by Smeg).
The home is laid out with beautiful flow, and large windows frame pretty garden views and allow natural light to pour into every corner. Everything is spacious and oversized - the dining room, for example, can easily accommodate an 8-seat table. An instant gas fireplace creates a wonderful ambience in the living areas, and the entire house has recently been painted internally and externally.
Stepping outside, the undercover patio is purpose-built for relaxed alfresco meals and entertaining. This space overlooks the lawn area, sandpit, and cubby house - perfect to let the imaginations of the young ones run wild - and the birdsong provides a tranquil soundtrack. At the front of the home, the cottage style garden has been beautifully re-established with native plants to ensure it is waterwise and easy care.
Located in the heart of this quiet and very safe neighbourhood, you can walk down to the river, enjoy the many kilometers of bike and pedestrian paths, or jump in the car and be at the Manning Farmers Market within 5 minutes. The local park (350m away) is enormous, and has barbecue facilities, a lake, and a playground. You can also walk to Canning Bridge Train Station for easy access to the CBD and beyond.

Como is an established suburb bound to the west by the Canning and Swan Rivers. Part of the City of South Perth's municipality, Como experienced its most significant development during the 1950s and 1960s, with gradual growth since the early 1990s as new dwellings were added to the area.
Parks and reserves are a dominant aspect of the Como landscape, such as one of Como's most notable features the international standard 27 hole Collier Park Golf Course. The Como Hotel is a popular bar, café and restaurant in the suburb and a recognisable fixture of Canning Highway. There are also some shops in the area to service local requirements, as well as four local schools, including Penrhos College.
