What a TREASURE ! If you love the 1960s style file, you will particularly love this as it comes with a BRAND NEW class kitchen with ASKO appliances, class bathroom, powder room (2nd toilet), fresh paint and comfort all ready for you, no need to lift a finger (or a tradie or your bank account). Offering options, space and zoning indoors and outdoors for hobbies, home office, a quiet read in the Sunroom or play with friends and family.

We expect many beautiful memories will be made here.

We invite you to view and embrace this lifestyle property which will have wide appeal to young couples, small families, FIFO, downsizers and we are also wheelchair accessible and will suit disabled use.

There is plenty of room on this friendly 1338sqm block with a fully fenced rear yard, not too big, not too small, just right! If you have a boat or van they can be secured in the lockable rear yard and you can fly out for holidays or work leaving it all secure.

You might choose to live the 'good life' and add some fruit trees, get the veggies going and raise some chickens, what a joy.

Such a beautiful location across the road from the Old Railway Reserve and adjoining the Quenda Creek Nature Reserve & Wildlife Corridor, we love the birdlife and the call of the magpies in the morning and the scurrying of Quendas (bandicoots) in the evening. This is very special.

The location offers a desirable lifestyle within walking distance (~450m) to the Gooseberry Hill Village and Embers Restaurant & Takeaway, the Patisserie and handy services. How lovely to be able to wander down the walk trail with your visitors and pop in for lunch or dinner or enjoy a coffee with an exquisite pastry!

This premium Gooseberry Hill pocket is steeped in history with significant neighboring residences dating back to the early 1900s, you will be in fine company.

The Old Railway Reserve opposite was the track for the amazing Zig Zag Rail Line built in 1891 to transport railway sleepers from Canning Mills through Kalamunda and Gooseberry Hill and incredible engineering to create the Zig Zag trail to get the trains down the hill to Midland. The line was taken up in 1949 and is now enjoyed as a walking trail and wildlife corridor and links to the Railway Heritage Trail just a few hundred meters up the road. From there you can walk or cycle right through Kalamunda to Pickering Brook and stop for a coffee or lunch along the way or like many, just set off for your morning walk and enjoy the native flowers, birdlife and I expect the dear Quendas will be scurrying out of your way.
