203 Whatley Cres, Bayswater is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces and was built in 1920. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in December 2024.
This lovely character home with high ceilings, Jarrah floorboards, stained glass entry way and art deco features was built in 1931, and sits on 781m2 of prime real estate in the rezoned Meltham Station Precinct Structure Plan.
The house has three large bedrooms, two with built-in robes/storage and one with a fireplace. At the end of the central hall is a shower/toilet, before leading into a large kitchen with a Belling twin-fronted electric oven with seven gas-top burners. There are reverse cycle, split air-conditioners in two bedrooms and the living room, which also has a gas spear for winter heating.
The lounge-dining area is framed by French doors which open onto a stunning 36 sqm Jarrah deck protected by a pitched roof, tastefully designed in keeping with the period style of the house and fabulous for all-weather entertaining. The southern end of the living room opens into a second bath/toilet and houses the laundry facilities behind a separate door.
From the deck itself you look into a magnificent garden of mature trees which have been chosen for summer shade, autumn splendour and spring blossoms. It's a wonderfully peaceful and private space: you'd never know you were just a three-minute walk to the train station (nine minute ride into town) and 5.5km's from the CBD by car.
The lawns are fully reticulated by bore and 1,260 litre rainwater tank by the side of the house for general use.
10 solar panels on the roof as well as a high-tech Solargain hot water system, feeding a 315 litre storage unit with an electric boost for winter.
These charming homes on big blocks close to the city are now very rare and this one won't last long.
Walking distance to shops and cafes with an old fashioned backyard, or land to extend if required, or the savvy investor who can clearly envisage the development potential in this block-o-tunity.
