Auction Location: 24 Wichmann Road, Attadale WA 6156

Located just minutes from the river along a wide, tree-lined street with pockets of native bush surrounds - it's rare to find land of this size, complete with an original home, in the highly sought after suburb of Attadale. Lovingly built in 1954 by the original owners, and held in the same family ever since, this 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom character home proudly sits across a sprawling 905m2 corner block.

With over 60 years of cherished memories within, family milestones along the way, celebrations with loved ones and the arrival of grandchildren and great-grandchildren - this is a much-loved, generational heirloom.

Paved brick pathways curve around the neat, manicured lawn and garden beds of native blooms, rose bushes and birds of paradise, creating a serene welcome towards the front door and north-easterly facing veranda.

An endearing time capsule filled with nostalgic charm awaits inside; original 1950s wallpaper, high ceilings, decorative cornices, cream carpets throughout, a classic retro bathroom with pastel pink accents and a vintage kitchen of yesteryear with all the hallmarks of its era.

Spanning the entrance of the home is the lounge and formal dining, the latter lovingly referred to by children and grandchildren growing up as the “Queen's Room.” The family bathroom and kitchen peel off to the right while three bedrooms (one with a built-in robe) extend down the hallway, seamlessly blending into the extension added in the late 70s to accommodate their growing family.

A separate sunken family room with a corner bar hosted many get-togethers in its former prime years, while children spilled in and out of the undercover alfresco and pool area over endless summers. There's also a laundry and separate toilet, with sliding door access between the interior and exterior zones.

Outside, more green lawn and a rambling 'secret garden' surround the home with two large storage sheds fenced off at the rear, and gated access via Davidson Road for additional parking whether it be a car, trailer, boat or caravan.

The endless possibilities for transformation are tempting with such a large sized block to play with; breathe new life into the original home with a contemporary renovation, extend, add another level, or start afresh and build the family home of your dreams (STCA).

This location is second to none, offering prime riverside living with a wonderful water-playground on your doorstep; swimming at Bicton baths, kayaking from Point Walter, all day boating or picnics along the river banks. Attadale Reserve and its connected pathways is popular with walkers, joggers, cyclists and dog-walkers alike with convenient access by car, bus or bike to Perth CBD or Fremantle.

Up the road is where locals gather at the gourmet village precinct on the corner of Davis and Moreing Roads. Enjoy coffee and brunch at the Neighbourhood Cafe, dinner from Redfish or Guru Spices Indian Cuisine or a spot of grocery shopping at The Foodies Basket. There are bush parks and playgrounds on every corner and excellent schools in the vicinity include Attadale Primary a short walk away, Mel Maria Catholic Primary and Santa Maria College.

This property offers an exceptional opportunity for its next owner with endless potential and possibilities on a rare full-sized block, all within a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood and exclusive riverside precinct.
