13 Clarke Street, Hilton WA 6163

On the White Gum Valley border on a big block with rear access and loads of potential, this 1960's brick-and-tile home with jarrah floors and north-south orientation is in sound original condition and is a practical, affordable choice with excellent security close to Fremantle and a short drive to the beach. On 516sqm and featuring a large brick garage with independent rear access easily converted to a granny flat, this home has been very well cared for and is a smart investment in a handy location ripe for growth.

Northern light streams in through big picture windows to the long lounge room with double timber and glass doors through to the open-plan dining and kitchen, complete with retro Metters wood stove in superb condition. The bathroom, with separate toilet, is a mid-20th century classic with floor-to-ceiling decorative tiling. The laundry, with original large trough, has direct access to the big backyard which is set up in productive Freo Italian style with grapevine, lemon trees and a huge garden bed for vegies.


The rear laneway has access from two side streets, leading to the large brick garage complete with gas stove. Given that there is a two-car tandem carport at the front of the home, it's tempting to consider converting the garage into accommodation for extended family or possible rental income, or simply using it as a large workshop or studio space.

With 60's character features and good prospects for adding value, this is a very good buy
just three kilometres from the ocean and close to the golf course, with schools, shops and medical services close at hand. You can walk to direct bus routes to Fremantle train station, Fiona Stanley and St John of God Hospitals and Murdoch University.
