Last Listing description (September 2024)

Set back from an ultra-conveniently located street, this 1948 vintage bungalow with character features offers huge potential for busy people seeking to invest in one of Perth's most popular suburbs between the city and the beach, in a prime school catchment zone, close to spectacular parks and a plethora of cafes, restaurants and shopping.

Minutes to the CBD, Subiaco, Northbridge and a short walk up the road to Wembley Primary School, the home offers three bedrooms, one bathroom, study/sunroom, a sunny kitchen, easy-care mature gardens both front and back and plenty of capacity for enhancement.

Stroll to nearby Herdsman Parade bus stops, peaceful Herdsman Lake, Lake Monger with its adventure playground, and the popular Herdsman Markets, while St John of God Hospital is only a five-minute drive.

Currently tenanted until February 2025 and set on a regular shaped 588 sqm block, utilise the home's great bones for a makeover/renovation, continue to lease it as it is, or start again and build a modern home taking advantage of the spacious 588sqm land.

Throughout much of the front of the property, original high decorative ceilings, jarrah floorboards, and leadlight windows provide an element of character that is often perfectly blended with modernisation in neighbouring Wembley residences.

As for the home itself, entry is via a semi-limestone walled front garden and driveway and on to a covered front porch, typical of the architectural style of its time.

Inside, a high-ceilinged hallway leads to a separate living room with gas heating, leadlight windows opening to the porch, pendant lighting and period wall details.

From here, multi-panelled timber and glass doors open into the family-sized kitchen, offering top and bottom cabinetry, a five-burner gas stove and oven, granite stone bench tops, double sinks and an adjacent space for dining.

Facing the leafy front of the home is a carpeted main bedroom with built-in wardrobes and airy decorative ceilings centred with an art deco-style pendant light.

Bedroom two also enjoys built-in robes, while bedroom three is located at the rear of the home with views into the gardens.

Additionally, a sunroom provides a rear garden-facing study or quiet work-from-home area. Wet areas include a large laundry with a tub sink, ample room for a washer, dryer and hanging space, a separate WC, and adjacent to bedroom two, a good-sized bathroom with stand-alone shower and vanity.

Outside, a rear covered and paved courtyard could become the ideal alfresco for summer days. Private, surrounded by established greenery and a manageable lawn, there is fantastic scope for a low maintenance, shady sanctuary.

A driveway and single car garage adjoin the front lawn, again an area offering huge capacity for updates or home extensions if required.

Thanks to multiple parklands, great public and private schools, proximity to Perth's CBD, and Subiaco, and Leederville's vibrant restaurant and caf scene, Wembley has become a go-to choice for savvy buyers.

With this property, drop the kids off at school on foot - it's less than a five-minute walk - drive to Subiaco Square (Target and Woolworths) in seven minutes, or park and ride at Glendalough Station car park within five minutes.
