White Gum Valley WA 6162

SOLD - MULTIPLE OFFERS - LOUISE POPE, WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS!Set back from the street, sheltered by a leafy screen of greenery that creates a wonderful sense of privacy, this historic gem is a treasure trove of character. Modern appointments have shaped each space, with plenty of original charm to be found throughout: jarrah floors, soaring high ceilings, and exceptionally large bedrooms. The backyard is especially delightful, with elevated decking overlooking the garden filled with birdsong, and you'll love how secluded it feels despite all the action of city life minutes away.Inside, the air-conditioned open-plan living is airy, light and bright. The master bedroom is directly opposite with so much space, built-in robes, and double doors that open to the exterior - with room to add a bistro setting for your morning coffee. The skylit kitchen has been renovated with contemporary style: stainless steel appliances, engineered stone benchtops, and a freestanding island. Nearby, the second bedroom is just as spacious, with a ceiling fan, built-in robes, and skylight.At the rear, a modest laundry sits between the bathroom (and separate WC) on the right with a large multi-purpose room on the left that can be anything: study, playroom, hobby space, teenagers' retreat, or third bedroom. Flooded in natural northern light, stack open the bi-folds to the decked balcony that sits above the gardens below. The stretch of artificial lawn is perfect for kids or pets, with a timber pergola adorned with grapevines, and a fruitful lemon tree in the corner. There's also a garden shed for storage of tools, while down the side is a drying court for the laundry. Finally, out the front is room to comfortably park 3-4 vehicles.Superbly positioned on the border of vibrant Freo and leafy White Gum Valley, this location has it all: you can bike to Freo's town centre, hop on a bus steps from your door, wander over to the Freo Farmers Markets every weekend, or stroll to Booyeembara Park, with the local primary school minutes away. All the cityside attractions are nearby too: shops, cafes, museums, art galleries, restaurants, bars, and live music - with the beach or river less than 10 minutes away.This is the best of both worlds: a stone's throw away from the old Portside city, the leafy serenity of Valley living, and an original character home to take it all in. - 1960s character gem on Freo's border- 439m2 block- Set back from the main street behind tall hedging- Master bedroom with ceiling fan, BIRs & double doors to exterior- Second bedroom with skylight, BIRs, ceiling fan- Large windows, jarrah floors, high ceilings- Open plan living with ceiling fan & A/C- Renovated kitchen with skylight, freestanding island & modern appliances- Bathroom with separate WC, laundry alongside- Bi-folds off large multi-purpose room (or 3rd bedroom) to outdoor entertaining- Timber decked balcony/outdoor alfresco, wonderful north-facing elevation- Beautiful back garden: artificial lawn, lemon tree, timber pergola with grapevines, garden shed- Drying court down the side- Great parking out the front for 3-4 vehicles- Close to Freo's town centre, shops, cafes, museums, art galleries, restaurants, bars, & live music- Walk to White Gum Valley Primary School, Booyeembara Park, Freo Farmers Markets, public transportFor more information please call Exclusive Selling Agent Louise Pope from White House Property Partners on 0410 803 722LEASED UNTIL JANUARY 2026 AT $570 PER WEEKCouncil Rates: $2,370.00 per annum (approx.)Water Rates: $1,471.86 per annum (approx.)
