2/54 First Avenue

Mount Lawley WA 6050

This is one of those homes that quietly knows it's doing everything right. Tucked into a secure, boutique group of just five (because crowds are overrated), this renovated single-level villa sits at a skip and hop of just 150 metres from Beaufort Street… yet somehow feels like it's thumbing its nose at hustle. You get all the buzz, none of the noise, and zero compromise on comfort. Honestly? It's a bit of a unicorn. Inside raises the bar even further with high, vaulted ceilings making the space feel airy and unapologetically comfy. And there's air con. And a direct flow out to the covered front courtyard. Morning coffee, evening wine, a book you'll pretend you'll finish this time. This is where life can slow down in the best possible way.

The home then flows into a very cute open-plan kitchen and dining space that's been cleverly designed to punch well above its weight. Subway tiles, overhead cabinetry, pantry storage, and a layout that makes cooking feel less like a chore and more like a choice (although there's always the plethora of choices just down the road!). Slide the door open, and you're rewarded with a second courtyard at the rear, complete with privacy screening so you can do your thing uninterrupted. Both bedrooms are genuinely well-sized (no creative measuring required) with the main bedroom complete with built-in robes and air conditioning, while the second is perfect for guests or a home office. The bathroom is neat, modern and functional, the laundry is properly set up with room for both washer and dryer, and the carport plus side gate access seals the deal on everyday practicality. It's not at all a surprise this place has been topping the Airbnb lists for a while, which is why you'll have to think quickly if you want to beat the investors here.

Location-wise, this is Mount Lawley living done properly. You're tucked into one of the Avenues, which means leafy streets, a chill sense of community, and everything you actually want within easy reach. Again, Beaufort Street is just 150m away, putting your daily coffee, dinner and drinks rotation firmly on foot. Start with Testun Bar (270m), wander past Copley Park (280m) for a breather, grab a coffee at Secondeli Café (290m), or stock up at Good Grocer IGA (350m) and Old Speak Coffee (350m). Local and Aesthetic (400m) is also right there as is Three Coins Trattoria (400m) when pasta night calls. Stretch your legs a little further to Le Rebelle (800m) or Lady Annie (850m), catch a show at the Astor Theatre (900m), or jump on the train at Mount Lawley Station (900m) for an easy trip in any direction. Green space is well covered with Hamer Park Reserve (1km) nearby, and when you feel like a hit or a stroll Mount Lawley Golf Club (2.2km) is close by. And when the city beckons, Perth is just 3.3km away. Vibrant and endlessly convenient, it's the kind of home that's all smart, sassy, and unsurprisingly, smug.
