Two spacious minor bedrooms have ceiling fans and white timber shutters, while the family bathroom enjoys a larger-than-average bath. Finally, a well-designed laundry includes ample storage, direct access to the outdoor drying court, a built-in ironing board cupboard plus an adjacent powder room. The fantastic location is the icing on the cake for this well-loved western suburbs gem.

A 9 minute drive will take you to stunning Swanbourne beach for an early morning swim. Currently zoned R15, this property offers a unique value: it cannot be subdivided, preserving the expansive 787sqm block for single-family use. For buyers seeking space and privacy, this zoning keeps you away from the higher-density areas closer to Stirling Highway, where blocks are often zoned R60, R160, and higher. Here, you'll enjoy a more spacious, family-friendly setting that retains the character of the neighbourhood. With the option to add value through thoughtful renovations, this property is perfect for those wanting to create a lasting family home in a peaceful area.Don't miss this brilliant opportunity to secure a gorgeous classic home on Nedlands leafiest and friendliest street - call Pat & Larry today!Features:-7.6A solar panels plus lithium battery-High ceilings throughout-2 separate living areas-Quality Tasmanian oak kitchen, Miele oven-2 split system reverse cycle air conditioners-2 fireplaces-Original ornate plaster details and archways-Jarrah floorboards -Multiple outdoor spaces to enjoy at different times of day-North-facing deck-Quirky details like the red original Apple Mac letterbox-Covered carport-2 garden sheds-Underground power to the streetNearby: -130m Carrington Park: playground (aka 'Steamroller Park'), fenced dog area and basketball court-270m Common Bakery, Poppet's Pantry, Petra Olive Oil Farm Shop-350m Karrakatta Cemetery, leading to Hollywood Reserve - both fantastic for wildflowers and dog walking-600m Taylor Road IGA (24hrs) and the Wine Box-400m Chelsea Pizza, Marumo Japanese, Nando's and Chez Pierre - all at the end of Weld Street-1.8km Hampden Road shopping precinct -2km Claremont Quarter and Bay View Terrace shopping and lifestyle destination (David Jones, Coles, Farmer Jack's, many restaurants, bars and fashion retailers)-2.4km University of Western Australia (4 min drive or 6 min by bus)-2.6km QEII Medical Centre Closest Schools: -1.6km Hollywood Primary School catchment - 3 min drive-1km St Thomas Primary School (private Catholic school) - 3 min drive-2.2km Christ Church Grammar School (private Anglican day school for boys ELC - year 12 & boarding years 7-12) - 5 min drive, 14 min by bike-2.5km Methodist Ladies' College (private Uniting Church day school for girls ELC - year 12 and boarding years 6-12) - 5 min drive, 14 min by bike-3km Shenton College catchment - 5 min drive, 10 min bike-A private school bus picks kids up every school day at 07:43 and drops them home at 16:10 from Carrington St Park to St Hilda's via Scotch CollegeClosest Transport: -400m Transperth Bus Stop 10373 (Stirling Hwy before Weld St) 995 bus to Perth CBD via UWA, 17 mins-950m Loch Street Train Station, trains to Fremantle (18 min) and Perth CBD (14min)Rental appraisal: $1,300-$1,400 per weekCouncil Rates: Approx $2,352 per annumWater Rates: Approx $1,477 per annumDisclaimer:The particulars of this listing have been prepared for advertising and marketing purposes only.
