21 Sherborne Road, Gooseberry Hill WA 6076

Hidden away behind the trees and surrounded by gorgeous gums this semi refurbished 4x1 cottage home is a secret gem with a spectacular past. Originally built circa 1930's and used as a homestay for the large dairy farm that once encompassed this area. There are still a few locals who remember walking past it in their youth. It really is super cute and cosy and sits on a large block with plenty of potential for expansion or add-ons. All that yard space means kids have room to run and play, maybe pop a chicken coop in, and give it the full "river cottage" treatment out the back to make full use of the great outdoors.

Jarrah floors feature throughout this home, set off by neutral whites on walls and fixtures. The 9 foot high ceilings give a grand feeling to this historic homestead. The country kitchen has modern appliances and heaps of storage space, making cooking a breeze! The dining features large windows and large sliding doors out to the alfresco. All year round you'll enjoy the decking, wrap around verandas with expansive views overlooking The Boulevard Reserve parklands, and the Perth metro area down the valley.

Just to note: there's full side access as well, with a big below-ground pool and a gabled double carport at the rear of the property. An outhouse (separate from the main dwelling) functions as the laundry but would be a great change to funky pool house. All of this on a huge 2140sqm block!

Close to schools, shops and transport, this historic cottage is close enough for convenience, yet makes you feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle. It requires your inspection, and will not disappoint, get wrapped up in its charm today.
