Leederville WA 6007

What we love:A mix of Federation, retro and modern styling befits the covetable location and diverse demographic. Nestled in Leederville's heartland yet peaceful by positioning within a network of quiet streets, moments from Brittania and Brentham Reserves - where locals gather, unbeknownst to those who only frequent Oxford Street.Minutes from the bustling cafe strip, this inviting home with flexible layout has two (bed)rooms and/or living spaces - each with ornate bricked fireplaces. Extending the original living/dining area has enhanced flow and workable space, while bifold doors to the rear alfresco invite light and fresh air to fill circa 1906 'bones'.Beguiling character features are throughout *most* of the home - picket fence, bullnose verandah, timber screen door, stained glass, high ceilings, floorboards, ornate architraves and ceiling roses, while statement retro inclusions impart style and flair. Case in point: cornflower blue accenting throughout provides an unexpected freshness to the typical Federation terrace palette.Easy-care yet generous front and rear patios will appeal to introverts and extroverts alike offering spaces to 'be' or to comfortably host sizeable soirees.As close as you'll find yourself to Perth's best bars and cafes, it's the getting there that'll prove challenging when you have your own private oasis to enjoy.What to know:Storybook facade: white picket fence, bullnose verandah, whitewashed bricks; mature frangipani tree.Inviting porch & spacious rear sheltered alfresco: side access: paved & accented by plants/trees.Throughout: jarrah floorboards, timber venetian blinds & a mix of period & modern pendant lighting.2 functional (bed)rooms/living: high ceilings, sash windows, split AC, wardrobes & original fireplaces.Bright country-style kitchen: muted checkered-tile splashback, gas stove, electric oven; split-AC.Lounge/dining: painted raked ceiling with skylight ensures ample natural light from adjacent patio.Charming bath: floor-to-ceiling tiling, clawfoot bath/shower, timber vanity & chrome/porcelain tapware.Spacious & bright farmhouse-style laundry: B&W tile flooring, rustic trough with door; separate toilet.Surprisingly large rear garden: immaculate, paved & no-maintenance artificial lawn & garden shed.Enviable location: close to it all - parks, lakes, schools, sport, boutiques, bars, cafes & transport.2 x Town of Vincent parking permits for street parking.Built: 1906 approx.Land: 218sqm~ approx..
