Near Rosalie Park and Kings Park and nestled behind a character home, this abode has a light, airy feel thanks in part to its white vaulted timber ceilings. The lounge and dining area has a cute window seat and French doors out to the garden.
A renovated kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops and a breakfast bar sits next to another living area. The bathrooms have also been renovated and there is a loft storage space off the second bedroom.
“As an entry point into Shenton Park for a 3×2 home at this price point, it is incredibly great value to get into such a premium street and location,” agent Ingrid Bradshaw says. “It’s perfect for singles or professional couples, empty-nesters, downsizers, people looking for a city base from the country, investors – it has appeal to a wide sector of buyers. It is difficult these days to find a single-level home that’s got character, that’s been renovated, for sub-$1 million in this area.”
