What we loveIs the comfortable 728sqm (approx.) block that this versatile 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home so impressively sits on, complete with R30 zoning, a generous 18.1-metre frontage and the exciting subdivision potential attached to it. A location of the utmost convenience speaks for itself, with the property nestled directly opposite the revamped multi-million-dollar Karrinyup precinct - a mecca when it comes to shopping, fashion, food and entertainment. Christmas shopping just got a whole lot easier as well, with no need for you to worry about parking the car ever again.For now though, the flexibility of this functional home will delight you, including shutting the rear master-bedroom suite, ensuite, kitchenette and living room off to create a separate 1x1 living quarters - perfect for those with an extended family or wanting a terrific Airbnb or short-stay accommodation option to secure your future with. Outdoors, a fabulous pitched rear patio can be access from both the laundry and living room (or even from a side gate off the large single carport) and overlooks the shimmering below-ground swimming pool down below. So many possibilities and so much to look forward - of that, there is no doubt.What to knowA charming front dining room welcomes you inside with its fireplace and split-system air-conditioner, next to a contemporary kitchen with tiled splashbacks, electric-cooktop and double-oven appliances and a microwave nook.
