17 Surrey Road

After more than 20+ years filled with warmth, laughter and memories, the current owners of this loved character residence are ready to embark on their next chapter as they retire and downsize, creating a rare opportunity to secure a special home! Originally built in 1940, this enchanting 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home blends character with modern enhancements. Over the years it has been lovingly extended and renovated, resulting in inviting interiors balancing comfort and functionality. Multiple living areas provide versatility for families and guests, all while preserving the unique personality and craftsmanship of its era. The front lounge also offers excellent versatility and could be effortlessly converted into a third bedroom if desired. This much loved home has hosted many significant life moments, including the owners backyard wedding. Outside, a private garden sanctuary awaits, offering a timber decked patio perfect for entertaining, a generous workshop space and a flourishing edible garden. Established fruiting trees and vines - including olives, limes, mangoes, oranges, blueberries and passionfruit - add both beauty and abundance to this idyllic outdoor setting. The location is equally compelling. Positioned just 5km from the Perth CBD, it offers outstanding convenience while retaining a peaceful setting. Weekends here can be spent riverside, catching events at Optus Stadium, enjoying nights out at Crown Perth, or taking trips via the nearby airport. Lifestyle takes centre stage, with the Victoria Park café and dining strip just moments away, along with boutique shopping, local eateries, entertainment precincts and scenic riverside walking and cycling trails all within easy reach. Set within a cul-de-sac, the property also benefits from its position on Surrey Road, a designated "Safe Active Street" bicycle boulevard with an underpass through to Burswood at the end of the street. Full of warmth, character and soul, this is far more than just a home - it is a lifestyle, a sanctuary and a legacy waiting for its next chapter to unfold. Whether you choose to move straight in and enjoy everything it has to offer or lease it out as a savvy investment, the property presents a strong opportunity with an estimated rental return of approximately $770.00 - $790.00 per week.
