Bayswater WA 6053

For those that are looking forward to a "makeover" project, this home has a sizeable front garden that could become an ideal paved driveway with both an entry and exit point, and one of the two single garages on either side of the house could make way for a driveway down to the rear of the property. Upon entering, you have a short central hallway with the formal lounge on the left with in-built imitation gas fireplace, and main bedroom on the right. Both rooms have high ceilings and are spacious with period cornicing, ceiling roses, and each having a central ceiling fan.Opposite is the neat family bathroom with both bath, shower, and floor tiles, and adjacent is a well-sized second bedroom also with ceiling fan.Towards the rear of the home we enter into a tidy kitchen and meals area, with gas cooktop and a comfortable amount of cupboard space. This opens out to a large second family area, which could easily be divided to form an extra bedroom or office with access to the front verandah, and still leave enough room for an extra family area which leads out to the rear patio. Completing the home is a medium sized sleepout or extra bedroom, and an adjacent store room off the kitchen. The rear patio overlooks lawn and gardens that are tiered down towards the rear of the block which is ripe for a makeover for those that want a huge garden, or for those looking for a development block. Beyond this at the very rear of the block is a large section of shrubbery.For those thinking of this as the ideal location for a development, the home is ideal as a rental property while you develop plans subject to council approval. The block has an approximate width of 22m and approximate depth of 62m and is zoned R25 as a triplex site. The average lot size needed is 350m with a minimum of 300m.If council allow a 5% variation, you may only be 7m2 short of being allowed a 4 lot site, so you could examine if this could be possible with WAPC approval.As part of the annual Garden Awards, Cobden Street in Bayswater was recognised as the community's Most Sustainable Street. Driving out from this street you have super easy access to Bayswater Train Station, which is undergoing a major rejuvenation, Guildford Road, and Tonkin Hwy. You're also just a short drive from the CBD, the picturesque Riverside Gardens, the trails alongside Swan River, and Perth Airport.Located moments away from the cafe strip, local shops, and facilities Bayswater has on offer.The outstanding location is high on the hill with possible city views from a second storey. It is only a short stroll to Bayswater Train Station with the new airport link, Bert Wright Park, library, Farmers Market, and Bayswater Village, with a variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment options, and only a 10 minute drive to the airport and 14 minutes to the Perth CBD.Features:-Sold in "As-Is" condition.- 3kw Solar Panel System- Zoned R 25 – Triplex site - STCA- 1937 solid brick and tile California bungalow- Character features include high decorative ceilings and cornices and jarrah flooring- 2 bedrooms, sleepout/3rd bedroom, decorative formal lounge, tidy kitchen, spacious 2nd family living area.- 2 single garages- 1321m rectangular block, Frontage 22m and depth of 62m approx - Subdivision average lot size required 350m and minimum lot size required 300m- Located in the City of Bayswater
