This property presents a unique renovation opportunity, offering a blend of historic character and modern convenience. The front of the home retains its original charm and provides an excellent base for creative renovations, while the rear allows room for a stylish extension that aligns with contemporary living. The existing structure comprises a short central hallway leading to two bedrooms at the front, which are accompanied by a single bathroom further down the corridor. This main hallway opens into a basic kitchen and meals area, with another bedroom situated nearby.

Moving towards the back, there is a sleepout—a versatile space that could be reimagined in numerous ways—and an additional partitioned room, perfect for a study, hobby room, or storage. A stairway descends to an undercroft level, which features a self contained granny flat with compact kitchen, two bedrooms and a modern bathroom and laundry space.

The backyard is expansive and layered, gently sloping down to the rear fence line. It currently holds a large work shed, complete with an adjoining toilet and shower—ideal for future use as a garden studio, workshop, or even an outdoor retreat. The extensive yard space has the potential to be transformed into an entertainer’s paradise. Imagine a manicured garden with a pool deck and outdoor kitchen, offering plenty of room for family gatherings and social events.

Beyond the property itself, the location is simply unbeatable. Just meters away from the picturesque Swan River and the vibrant Banks Reserve, residents will enjoy access to the newly renovated adventure playground, BBQ facilities, skate ramps, and scenic walking and cycling paths that lead either into the city or across to Burswood and the impressive Optus Stadium.

Living here means embracing an active, family-friendly lifestyle within close proximity to the city and the bustling Beaufort Street shopping and café precinct. Entertainment options abound, with the iconic Astor Theatre nearby, as well as NIB Stadium for sports enthusiasts. The property is surrounded by several well-regarded public and private schools, including Trinity College, Mercedes College, Perth College, Mt Lawley High School and Sacred Heart making it ideal for families prioritizing quality education.

Additionally, the area is rich in amenities, with St. John of God Hospital, the Mt. Lawley and East Perth train stations, and a selection of sporting clubs such as the Mt. Lawley Golf and Tennis Clubs all within easy reach. The forthcoming East Perth Power Station development is set to add even more excitement to the area, enhancing its appeal and lifestyle options. A stroll to the foreshore in the evening allows residents to take in the dazzling neon light show from the Matagarup Bridge and Optus Stadium—a delightful end to any day.

With some renovation and thoughtful design, this property could become a dream family abode in a location that perfectly balances urban convenience, natural beauty, and community vibrancy.
