43 North Street

You might have scrolled past the photos of this home thinking it's located in Mount Lawley or tucked into an exclusive Subiaco street but this all charm, all character beauty comes without the postcode premium or near-city traffic. And it's impossibly and fabulously close to everything you'll love. Slow Sunday mornings that roll into cafe brunches in Guildford, Swan Valley and Mundaring, quick dashes to the shops that don't become full missions, and a location that gives you all kinds of options, plus the bliss of living in a home that was first loved in the 1900s and has since been brought completely into the now with one delightful renovation. It's historic character meets a young, edgy energy, where the heritage of the place holds its ground but the lifestyle feels current, easy, and more than a bit cool. If you're a professional, it's access to everything without compromise. If you're a family, there'll be less time stuck in transit and more time actually enjoying life. And for anyone chasing that polished character home aesthetic without heading into the inner-city scramble, it's perfection. Inside, you'll so appreciate how much respect has been granted to this home's origins. Soaring ceilings and original Jarrah floors still show off the early 1900s soul and then every other choice feels considered and elevated. The front bedroom delivers the space and presence you'd hope from the era while the second room will flex as a kid's room, guest space, or gorgeous work from home setup. Then, the renovation opens the home up, light spills in, and showcases a kitchen that's bright and easy with wide stone surfaces and generous storage. In the open-plan dining and living, you have the scope to set up the space however you like, but with the folding doors luring you outside, you'll probably spend just as much time on the back deck as anywhere else. Also have to tell you that the grape vines produce so many white and red grapes that the owners can't keep up with them so have to give them away. Buckets loads of them. Features Include: • Early 1900s character worker's cottage, solid brick & iron, with extensive & lovely renovation • 2 bedrooms (spacious master + flexible second bedroom/study/guest room) • 1 main bathroom plus outdoor shower & second toilet • Spacious main bedroom with feature fireplace • Single light-filled open plan living & dining area • Stunning original jarrah floorboards • Soaring approx. 3.5m high ceilings • Renovated bathroom/laundry/wet room with clawfoot bath, quality tiling & heated towel rails • Modern kitchen with oversized stone benchtop & breakfast bar, loads of storage, high quality finishes & appliances • Seamless indoor-outdoor flow via full-width bi-fold doors • Split system air conditioning & ceiling fans • Crimsafe security screens and security cameras • Undercover alfresco decking for year-round entertaining • Easy-care outdoor space • Rear laneway access • Huge double lock-up garage/workshop with approx 4m high roller door • Super low maintenance front & back yard • 296sqm block but everything fits so perfectly you don't need any more. Just take a look outside and you'll know - you're not sacrificing a moment to maintenance living here. Sure, you can get your green thumb going and plant out the raised veggie patch but equally, if you want to limit your weekend chores to mint picking for cocktail hour and a quick blower vac of the pathway, you're good to go. And then there's the wildcard: the serious double garage/workshop with rear lane access, big proportions, and the height to take more than just your standard car. So no sacrificing here either, bring your boat, caravan, stuff to store. And there's even an outdoor shower and second loo because practicality is so on trend. This is fabulous living without trying too hard, historic value without the upkeep headaches, and a location that does a lot of heavy lifting for making your entire life better. Don't let this gem sparkle for someone else.
