Sometimes, 'retro' as a real estate descriptor can be a big red flag for 'hasn't been updated or maintained' - which is absolutely *not* the case for this spunky little gem! In fact, the vibes aren't just a by-product of being originally built in the '70s, but something the current owners have leaned into. There's a real mix of classic vintage and stylish improvement here, with brand new carpets, window treatments, fresh white walls, gleaming cork-look vinyl floors, and practical additions like ceiling fans and downlights - all while keeping the original architectural elements such as the funky walk-throughs.
There is still room to renovate, if you have the bug, and you'll be thanking the '70s penchant for expansive room sizes every time you do. Every room is larger than usual, including the bathroom and laundry, meaning you have oodles of options for a makeover and very few size restrictions. In keeping with the size matters theme, outside's alfresco has been built to match, and brings a lovely indoor to outdoor flow through the sliding doors - something you'll love come Summertime.

There are some garden beds and retaining walls in the gardens outside, but the backyard is largely a blank slate. True to form, the block size is generous, so you can set up under the alfresco and plan your dream backyard in your own time. Need inspiration? The Heritage Trail is close by and there are parks galore to jog, bike, walk, or run around or just let the kids and the dog loose to zoom off some energy. The local shops offer most everything you need including a butcher, pharmacy, newsagent, and even a hair salon and the bus stop just around the corner on Talbot Road will take you into Midland and onto the CBD, should you need to commute. We don't think this groovy marvel will be on the market for very long at all.
Funkadelic meets fantastic!
