142 Townshend Road, Subiaco WA 6008

Character House - Bring your Hard hat

Fact 1: This 4 bedroom, timber framed weatherboard house, has been declared by the City of Subiaco "unfit for human habitation" and has orders to that effect. If these orders have not been adhered to within the six month from the date of sale, the improvements must be demolished.

Fact 2: This homes is rich in history. Built in 1912, this is not your typical workman's quarters. 4 large bedrooms, 3 fireplaces, and some wonderfully ornate finishes, this home was built for a family of influence. That family was in fact John Charles Roydhouse (from which Roydhouse Street in Subiaco is named) his wife grace, and their 3 children. John held a seat on the Subiaco Municipal Council for many years, and eventually became the Mayor of Subiaco from 1926-1929. Imagine the dinner parties that took place...

This property is a corner block of 412 sqm, zoned Residential R20 with a ROW at the rear, and only 5 minutes walk to the Subiaco shopping strip, this property has the potential to be a fantastic building site.

For the not so faint hearted, you might want to look at saving the existing residence and the rich history along with it!

a decent sized block only 2 sets of traffic lights from the Perth CBD, where in the world would you get an opportunity like this?
