The parkland beside Maylands Library sits out in front, so the outlook is public open space and tree canopy rather than a neighbour's window, and it is the sort of view that makes a morning coffee out there worth the trouble of making one.The unit itself is two bedrooms, neat and tidy throughout, and presented in the condition that lets you put your furniture down and simply get on with living. The bathroom is generous and does double duty as the laundry, so the washing machine sits inside the unit, which is more than a good many buildings at this level can offer. Split system reverse cycle air conditioning in the living room handles both ends of the Perth year. The building is secure and the parking is so close to the building door.Eighth Avenue has quietly become one of the better strips on this side of the river, a short run of cafes, small bars and everyday shops that people walk to rather than drive past. The RISE sits alongside the library and puts a gymnasium, a cafe, a creche, dry courts, function and meeting rooms and a community hall under the one roof, which covers off a surprising amount of ordinary life without needing the car. Maylands station is on Eighth Avenue, four and a half kilometres from the city and roughly eight minutes on the train, and three lines run through it, Midland, Airport and Ellenbrook, on twelve minute intervals through the peak. Bus routes 40, 41, 42 and 43 work Eighth Avenue and Guildford Road for everything the train does not cover.South of the strip the ground falls away to the Swan River and the Maylands Peninsula, known traditionally as Moorordup, the place of the nose, for the way it pushes out into the water. A shared cycling and pedestrian path runs the foreshore and links through to the neighbouring suburbs, the golf course occupies the old brickworks site, the tennis club keeps fourteen grass courts and three hard courts overlooking the river, and the yacht club sits on the foreshore below.The tenant is vacating, so this one is available for an owner occupier to move straight into rather than an investment that comes with a waiting period attached.Virtual furniture has been used in the photographs on this property listing.
