79 Wood Street

It'll be love at first porch step with mod cons to boot. A mid-century, memory-making, cool-as character treasure on a seriously generous slice of heaven, this 1957 classic delivers all the retro woo-worthy charm and the modern upgrades you quietly hoped for. From the Saturday morning sunshiney front porch to the Jarrah floorboards, sash windows, decorative cornices, and French glass doors that lead you straight into a living room designed for living, get used to holding your heart. It's all utterly delightful. The dining and kitchen zone keeps things running smoothly with loads of storage, a pantry, a skylight, original mid-century cabinetry (the good kind), and a Metters oven still proudly in the mix alongside an oven and stovetop, because options are the new property love language. The bedrooms are calm and sunlit with air conditioning to keep everyone civilised, and the renovated bathroom and laundry absolutely bring it with terrazzo floors, fresh cabinetry, clever storage, sleek finishes, and a separate WC to keep the romance alive. Out the back, everything levels up again: a laid-back yard with lawn for lounging, a paved pool area for cannonballs, a studio workshop for tinkering, plus a hot and cold outdoor shower that's half coastal retreat, half soft-life luxury. Add in solar panels, reticulation, side access, and undercover parking, and it all becomes obvious very quickly; this is The One. Location-wise, this is a neighbourhood that knows how to treat you right. Catherine Reserve (300m), Grand Promenade Reserve (450m), and Macauley Park (550m) are all close enough for spontaneous playdates, dog walks, or a wander with a takeaway coffee, and Inglewood Stadium (700m) will keep your resident activity seekers happy. Inglewood Primary, St Peter's Primary, Chisholm Catholic College, and Perth College are all within reach, giving you excellent schooling options without the morning chaos. For your caffeine and carb rituals, you're spoiled: Baking Corner (750m), Finlay & Sons (1.1km), and Our Table (800m), all bring their Agame, while Flavours on 9th (1.3km) handles your Monday night market cravings. Grocery runs are a breeze with Aldi (1.3km), Bedford IGA (800m), Coles Inglewood (750m), and Woolies (1.5km) nearby, and Beaufort Street (750m) puts you in the thick of the neighbourhood buzz with live music, good food, and great people watching! The Mount Lawley Golf Club (1.5km) is right there for a cheeky round, buses on Grand Prom (650m) or Beaufort Street make commuting simple, and the CBD is just 5.4km away when you need to feel metropolitan.
