Beyond a picture-perfect front lawn wrapped in white picket fencing, this 50s classic has retained its endearing charm, with all the perks of a fabulous location. Green parks, neighbourhood gardens and local events add to the rich community feel, with cafés and shops a stroll away in both directions – including Coles and Gilbert’s Fresh – and only minutes to Freo or South Beach.
From the outset, a large umbrella tree frames the brick-and-tile exterior, with a stylish tiled porch offering the perfect spot to soak up the morning sun to the sound of birdsong.
Inside, nostalgic reminders are everywhere: original jarrah floors, sash and casement windows, picture rails, wainscoting, and a cosy wood fireplace at the heart of it all. The living and dining have been opened up, with built-in bench seating for family meals, while the timber-topped kitchen exudes country-style character, complete with an Italian Emilia cooker sitting pride of place.
Two bedrooms to the north and east enjoy abundant natural light and leafy outlooks, each sharing a nearby bathroom. A third bedroom, or ideal home office, is towards the rear in the old sleepout, with a study nook by the back door. There’s also a second bathroom housed in the laundry with a shower-over-bath.
Out the back is completely sheltered for alfresco dining with a gorgeous Hong Kong Orchid rising up through the decking. A private drying court is sectioned off for the laundry while a sunny side garden, lined with citrus, makes the most of its northern aspect – secure for little ones and pets. A gated single carport completes the exterior, with air-conditioning and ceiling fans inside.
You’ll simply love this Hilton classic filled with endearing charm and cottage character – all in a brilliant location for every lifestyle pursuit.
