Helena Valley WA 6056

This double brick delight has stood proudly since the 1950s and now seeks someone who will keep on loving it and appreciating its quirky charm. A mix of art deco elegance and bold retro vibes, there's plenty to admire here from the pretty ceiling roses in the living areas to the feature wallpaper in the main bedroom and the stunning timber flooring throughout. Keep cosy through winter by the slow combustion fire and take yourself on strolls outside as the weather heats up. The property is completely fenced, adding a sense of privacy and seclusion, and with pretty ponds and interesting gardens both front and back, it might take you a while to pick your favourite spot to stop and have a cuppa. The cute kitchen in this home, while not enormous by any means, is perfectly laid out, features plentiful cupboard space, and is sure to win your heart. Its pops of colour, wide window, and stove recess make it an absolutely lovely space to be in. And it leads out to the rear entertaining area, which is another exercise in beauty and eccentricity. The concrete verandah steps down onto timber decking where you can sit in perfect shaded bliss and admire the city views while birds sing their songs of summer. Leadlight windowpanes, concrete breeze blocks, and wrought iron railings combine in a sweet visual medley that somehow suits this property perfectly, while further exploration reveals a feature pond full of fish and plants, rounded out with a waterfall.
