Options Galore - keep it, flip it or split it! Opportunity knocks on this generous quarter-acre duplex-potential block where this gorgeous 4 bedroom 1 bathroom home with exquisite polished floors and modern kitchen is ready for its next chapter.
Whether you choose to retain the existing house and build at the rear, knock it down and create two stunning street-front residences or simply move in, rent out, renovate or extend - the possibilities are as exciting as they are rewarding. All of which are subject to local council and planning approvals, of course.
With the tantalising prospect of future city and river views from a second storey also on the radar, this is a rare chance to secure a property that grows with your vision.
Beyond the delightful entry verandah sits a spacious and welcoming front lounge room that is kept comfortable all year round by a split-system air-conditioning unit, a gas bayonet for heating and an Osburn wood-burner fireplace.
It neighbours a separate dining room that enjoys double-door access into the carpeted "sleep out", study or fourth bedroom that can be whatever you want it to be and even has its own split-system air-conditioner for climate control.
The updated central kitchen is large in size and pleasantly plays host to sleek Essa Stone bench tops, glass splashbacks, ample power points and storage space, a microwave nook, a Linea stainless-steel range hood, a 900mm-wide Fisher and Paykel five-burner gas-cooktop and oven combination and a stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher, for good measure.
The latter overlooks a carpeted activity room that is the ideal second living zone, preceding a huge "blank canvas" of a backyard with an expansive lawn area, lots of trees, plenty of shade, a paved entertaining courtyard and heaps of room to play.
An enormous double-width lock-up workshop shed - or garage - has a mechanic's pit, dual roller doors and a covered double carport in front of it. There is ample driveway parking space too, if need be.
Back inside, a front master bedroom is carpeted and comprises of built-in wardrobes, lots of extra storage and its own split-system air-conditioning unit. There are built-in robes and split-system air-conditioners in the second and third bedrooms also, as well as ceiling fans.
The fully-tiled - and already revamped - bathroom has a walk-in rain shower, a skylight, heat lamps and twin-vanity basins to help reduce traffic at family peak-hour. A separate toilet can be found off the functional laundry to complete a practical and efficient floor plan.
Stroll to the popular Marmion Street Fresh & Gourmet shopping precinct, Blend Caf? and Pizza Bar and medical facilities around the corner in a matter of only seconds, with the likes of Melville Primary School, Melville Senior High School (down the street), a host of lush local parklands (including the stunning Kadidjiny Park), bus stops, the LeisureFit Melville recreation centre and the vibrant Myaree industrial shopping area all very much within arm's reach themselves.
Also in close proximity are Westfield Booragoon Shopping Centre, our picturesque Swan River, Fremantle, the city and a whole lot more.
