163 Wellington Street East

There's something about a Northam cottage that just feels good. Maybe it's the bullnose verandah. Maybe it's the jarrah floors and high ceilings. Or maybe it's the fact you can park the car, walk to the shops for milk and still be home before the kettle's boiled. Whatever it is, this one has that easy, comfortable feel from the moment you arrive. Set on a low-maintenance 366sqm block right in the heart of town, this charming 1900-built cottage is the kind of home that suits busy lives. FIFO workers wanting a simple lock-and-leave. Retired farmers looking to downsize without giving up character. First home buyers chasing something with a bit more soul than the average unit. It just makes sense. Step inside through the striking red front door and you're welcomed by a long hallway, soaring ceilings and beautiful jarrah flooring that instantly gives the home warmth and personality. The formal lounge at the front of the home is cosy but spacious, complete with split system air conditioning and modern downlights for a more updated feel. Toward the back, the open plan kitchen and dining area keeps things practical and relaxed. There's a gas cooker, plenty of natural light, a second split-system air conditioner and sliding door access straight out to the carport. Both bedrooms are generously sized too, easily fitting queen beds, with freestanding wardrobes included. The bathroom has already had the hard work done, offering a large vanity, good storage and a roomy enclosed shower.

There's even a good-sized aviary already in place, plus a handy garden shed for storage. Location-wise, it's hard to beat for convenience. Northam Village Square is only a short walk away, making those quick Coles or Aldi runs incredibly easy, while Northam Boulevard with Woolworths, Kmart Hub and other major retailers is only minutes down the road. West Northam Primary, St Joseph's School and Northam Senior High are all close by too, which takes the stress out of the school run. You're also near local parks, sporting facilities and recreation spaces, giving you plenty of options for an afternoon walk, weekend sport or somewhere for the grandkids to burn off energy. And with the town centre just moments away, you've got cafes, pubs, medical services and everyday essentials all within easy reach.
