A northern orientation on an elevated corner block behind a wide treed verge is the ideal setting for a 1930s classic. With original features retained, but with the up-to-date comforts of a smartly renovated kitchen and bathrooms, this is a home with an embracing atmosphere in a welcoming neighbourhood. With two primary schools in walking distance, convenient access to a range of shopping and services, and surrounded by the leafy parks which are such a feature of Palmyra, this is a delightful location.
A limestone and timber picket fence lined with trees wraps around the property, sheltering the front lawn where there's room for the trampoline and kids to play. A north-facing sunroom is a lovely winter spot, with a long view over the landscape. Jarrah floors flow from the entry lobby through to the living room – also north-facing, with a gas log fireplace, picture rails, genuine original light fittings and beautiful leadlight double doors opening to the kitchen and dining. A simply stylish transformation to the generous kitchen features engineered stone tops, white subway tiling, stainless steel appliances including a 5-burner Smeg gas cooktop, and very extensive storage within Shaker-style cabinetry. Timber doors stack open from the dining space to the alfresco, framed by the passionfruit vine and with a bountiful lime tree nearby.
Beyond the kitchen is a renovated bathroom, with granite-topped vanity, bath, incorporated laundry and separate toilet. A carpeted bedroom is nearby, separate from the main bedroom zone. There, off a jarrah corridor, are two bedrooms with built-in-robes, and another bathroom with marble-topped vanity and even more storage. The master bedroom makes the most of the sense of elevation, with a large northern window to the front garden.
Out the back is a garden shed as well as a brick storage room, and one of the bonuses of the corner block is the side access off McKimmie Street to the carport. There is space for one car, with additional verge parking.
Airy elevation, atmospheric character and sympathetic renovation all make this a great choice, with the opportunity to further enhance this Palmyra classic and really make it your own.
