Packed with personality and perched on a massive block in a quiet, elevated and leafy street, this charming brick-and-tile family home is the perfect blend of character, comfort and exciting potential.
With its classic bones, generous layout and a big backyard made for family cricket and footy games, this is a solidly-built residence that invites imagination.
Dream big - there's room here to renovate further, extra extensions and even add a second storey to capture the sweeping city views on offer, in the future. The yard itself even has current city and river glimpses to savour, alongside endless lawn space, a basketball hoop, a garden shed and under-house storage.
Complementing the backyard's privacy and serenity is a huge powered double lock-up garage-cum-workshop shed with a roller door and mezzanine storage space. It sits beyond double side gates that afford you drive-through access to the rear, via a shade-sail single carport.
Internally, high ceilings and solid wooden Jarrah floorboards are commonplace and help preserve the home's original nostalgia of yesteryear.
A spacious open-plan living and dining area at the front of the house boasts split-system air-conditioning, gas-bayonet heating, feature ceiling cornices and double doors leading out to the delightful entry verandah.
The adjacent kitchen is nice and central - and has been cleverly updated to include gas cooking, a dishwasher, a walk-in pantry and more. Carpeted for comfort, a generous family room makes for a fantastic second living zone, with access out to a large covered outdoor patio-entertaining area.
The bedrooms are also carpeted under foot, inclusive of a generous front master - comprising of split-system air-conditioning and floor-to-wall-to-ceiling built-in wardrobes and storage cupboards. The decent second bedroom has its own split-system air-conditioning, as does the third bedroom. The same goes for the versatile fourth bedroom - or study - off the family room, that can be whatever you want it to be.
A stylish and light-filled bathroom plays host to a separate shower and bathtub, whilst a separate toilet can be found off the laundry. There are separate linen and broom cupboards in the hallway, for good measure.
Hop, skip or jump around the corner for coffee, lunch or dinner, anywhere within the vibrant Davis Road precinct.
Also within arm's reach are the picturesque Swan River foreshore itself, Santa Maria College, Attadale Primary School and Mel Maria Catholic Primary School - the latter two nestled just steps away, at the top of the street.
Additionally, a host of lush local parklands, public transport, shopping, the Point Water Golf Course and Reserve, central Fremantle and so much more are conveniently located only a matter of minutes from your doorstep. What a spot.
Evidently, this one has all of the bones. You bring the brilliance!
