Last Listing description (June 2026)
Lee Smith & Bourkes are pleased to present this exceptional opportunity, a rare offering of a substantial family home on a generous green-title block, where opportunities like this are few and far between.
Set on a spacious 753m corner allotment in one of Kensington's most family-friendly pockets, this impressive residence combines classic charm with a modern extension, delivering space, light, and flexibility in equal measure. Positioned directly across the road from Bill McGrath Reserve, the home is perfectly suited to growing families who value outdoor space, lifestyle convenience, and long-term potential.
Originally built in 1950 and thoughtfully extended, the home now offers an expansive 267m under roof, with five bedrooms (4 beds + activity) and three bathrooms arranged to provide excellent separation between living and sleeping zones. The minor bedrooms are located on their own wing, each with built-in robes, while the private master suite enjoys a walk-in robe and ensuite.
At the heart of the home is a massive open-plan living and dining area with extra-high ceilings, flooded with natural light thanks to its north-facing orientation. The upgraded kitchen features stone benchtops, glass splashback, integrated dishwasher, gas cooktop & stainless-steel rangehood.
Flowing from the living zone is a generous alfresco area overlooking the pool, complete with outdoor blinds installed by the current owner. The pool itself has just been fully resurfaced prior to coming to market, ensuring it is ready for immediate enjoyment. A fully fenced front yard adds another layer of privacy and security, ideal for children and pets.
Accommodation for vehicles is exceptional, with a double carport with roller door plus a double tandem garage accessed from the secondary street. Notably, the garage offers the option to be converted into a studio or granny flat under current zoning provisions, particularly attractive given the corner-block access from Seventh Avenue.
Significant recent upgrades provide peace of mind and modern comfort, including a whole house re-paint (both inside & out) new blinds to the lounge and master bedroom, a new switchboard, new LED lighting throughout, new ceiling to the activity room (Bed 5), and reverse-cycle ducted air-conditioning. Sustainability and future-focused inclusions include a 5kW solar system, EV charger, and an external water filtration and ozone purification system servicing the home. An alarm system, reticulated gardens, and imminent underground power upgrade further enhance the offering.
The location is outstanding, moments from parklands, cafs, schools, and transport, while remaining close to the Swan River and major lifestyle precincts.
This is more than just a home, it's a long-term family holding with genuine future upside in one of Kensington's most tightly held streets.
