Located in the heart of Hilton, you'll find a 60s original thoughtfully renewed to retain its historical charm and quintessential 'Freo' character. Set on a generous 519m2 with the bonus of rear laneway access, this is a brilliant opportunity to live close to Freo's bustling hub in a central location minutes from public transport, shops, caf?s, parklands and the local primary school.
There's plenty of space out the front to park multiple vehicles off-street as a pair of timber French doors, against the limestone fa?ade, guide you to the front door. Step inside to original jarrah floorboards flowing throughout, two good-sized bedrooms (one with built-in robes) and a newly renovated bathroom that perfectly infuses the original 60s floor tiles with a contemporary update.
The hallway leads to the country-style kitchen as the heart of the home unfolds to a cosy lounge room (with an a/c unit above), pretty French doors and a little dining nook. A wood-fire place tucked into the corner adds rustic charm and a homely ambience, alongside the timber highlights throughout. The kitchen has a stylish, stainless steel splashback, large DeLonghi oven with gas stovetop and a striking glass-stained feature light, while the laundry and a separate WC sits adjacent.
Continuing through, a multi-purpose room on the left can be utilised as a study, creative's hobby space, home-based business (with excellent accessibility from public transport along South Street and parking out the front), or as another bedroom ideal for multi-generational living with its own access via French doors. Another bathroom is nearby with the generous master retreat in a private position at the rear making it exceptionally quiet for this property's central location. It has a wall of built-in storage, a/c unit and sliding door access to the undercover alfresco - the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee in peace.
The north-facing backyard encompasses a large, paved undercover alfresco space, work shed (with gated laneway access) and a variety of fruit trees in the surrounding garden beds including lemon, mandarin and fig. There's future scope to transform this space further including the option of adding a granny flat (STCA) adding to the appeal of this property and its endless opportunity.
This is a charming character home perfectly positioned to enjoy Freo and everything the garden suburb of Hilton has to offer.
