136 Egina Street

What to love. Well, I've heard it pronounced E-gyna, I've heard it pronounced Edge-ina, and just the other day someone called it Egg-a-na. Honestly, say it however you want. The street is a winner. And at number 136, you're sitting in a seriously hard to beat pocket. Menzies Park is an easy wander, school pick-up and drop-off can be done without entering the daily car park hunger games, and most importantly, your morning coffee is close enough to become a personality trait. A striking character facade, manicured gardens and a secure electric gate give it that private, established feel before you've even stepped inside. It's charming without trying too hard. Built circa 1946, the home still wears its character properly. Not the fake kind where someone slaps on a ceiling rose and hopes for the best. The real stuff. Jarrah boards, picture rails, ornate cornices, ceiling roses and all the details that make these older homes feel like they've actually lived a life. Inside, you've got three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a home that feels truly move-in ready. It's the kind of opportunity that lets you get into the suburb without taking on a full-blown renovation saga. The 491sqm block gives you proper breathing room, and the backyard is a standout. A massive pitched patio, loads of usable space and room for kids, pets, parties, quiet coffees, loud Christmases and whatever else life throws at you. And then there's the long game. Bob Hawke College catchment, brilliant walkability, Menzies around the corner, Mount Hawthorn school close by, coffee sorted. For growing families, this isn't just a great place to live now. It could be a very clever place to hold onto. What to know.
