End Date Sale - Absolutely ALL OFFERS to be presented by Monday 3rd August 2026 at 5pm unless sold prior. Space to entertain outdoors, potter in the garden and enjoy secure off-street parking offers a different perspective on inner-city living. Beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated, this circa 1910's North Perth beauty pairs authentic period character with the walkability, convenience and neighbourhood atmosphere that continue to make North Perth one of Perth's most loved inner urban neighbourhoods. Behind its secure frontage, a sprawling front verandah introduces soaring pressed tin ceilings, ornate fireplaces, Jarrah floors and beautifully preserved decorative detailing that speak to the craftsmanship of the home's era. An impressive entrance and generous room proportions reflect a time when homes were built with a sense of permanence, while considered updates ensure the home remains entirely comfortable for contemporary living. Accommodation comprises two generous bedrooms, including an expansive main bedroom complete with custom shaker-style built-in robes that complement the home's heritage character. The second bedroom offers flexibility beyond its traditional use, with proportions that comfortably accommodate growing families, visiting guests or a dedicated work from home environment. Upgraded thermal and acoustic glazing to the street-facing windows contributes to a whisper-quiet interior environment, allowing the character of the home to take centre stage. Positioned centrally within the home, the separate living room retains its original fireplace and period detailing, creating a warm and inviting retreat away from the activity of daily life. Thoughtfully updated in keeping with the home's heritage aesthetic, the light filled kitchen combines timber benchtops, custom cabinetry, a built-in pantry, Smeg gas cooker and Fisher & Paykel dishwasher. Well-proportioned and highly functional, it balances practicality with character while remaining true to the home's original architecture. A contemporary bathroom, separate laundry and split system air conditioning to both bedrooms and the living room reflect the thoughtful updates made over time, allowing the home's original character to remain the defining feature. Outdoors, a paved entertaining area extends the living space into established gardens and lawn, creating an environment equally suited to hosting friends, weekend barbecues or quiet afternoons spent pottering outdoors. The original Metters wood-fired stove has been preserved in the same location, providing a genuine link to the home's past and the rear kitchen that once occupied this part of the property. The secure rear yard provides space for children and pets to enjoy, while off-street parking for multiple vehicles is a genuine advantage in this tightly held inner-city location. Woodville Reserve sits just around the corner, while North Perth Primary, the cafes, wine bars, restaurants and local favourites of the Angove Street precinct are all within easy walking distance. Beaufort Street's vibrant hospitality scene and the Perth CBD are all easily accessed, reinforcing the lifestyle appeal that continues to attract people to this established inner urban community.
