Century 21 Jones Property Group is proud to present 59 Cookham Road, Lathlain. When it comes to opportunity and prime real estate in Lathlain you would be very hard pressed to beat what is on offer here. Positioned on a generous 1,012m2 approx. R20 zoned duplex potential block, and offering up an incredibly solid 1970's family home, the options at your fingertips here are exciting to say the least!
Firstly the 1/4 acre block itself is located in one of the best streets in the suburb and for the most part is reasonably flat. The existing site allows the ability (should you choose to demolish the house) to build two new dwellings now or in the future which would be highly sought-after upon completion. It could be argued easily though that the existing dwelling has too much potential to be knocked over and is absolutely primed to be restored and the full 1/4 acre block to be enjoyed for the years ahead.
Another very enticing prospect for this site has to be a retain and build development with the existing dwelling offering the chance to retain as a 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom home on a front lot and to potentially build another dwelling to the rear, to maximise the site. The appeal to retaining the front dwelling is firstly the home itself with European homes constructed in this era notoriously well-built and as solid as you could hope for. In its current form of course, it needs some TLC and renovations carried out, however it's an understatement to be saying that there are strong bones here to be working with!
The other sweetener with retaining this home is the ability to have a 4 car garage under the house itself. 4 car garages are rarely seen and highly sought-after from the market so to have one already here for you is the absolute cherry on top to the existing home. There may also be scope in other parts of the dwelling to add on to or extend offering up loads of options to consider for those with one eye on the future!
**All development potential attached to this property is strictly subject to local council and WAPC approval with buyers encouraged to do their own due diligence on the site. **
Key features for the existing property include:
* 20m frontage with crossover to garage and secondary crossover with rear access to the back of the block and additional workshop / shed.
* Large front yard that would be perfect to be enclosed if desired to enjoy the full block.
* As mentioned above; below ground garage that would have the ability to park 4 cars if desired. Please note there may be some minor amendments to carry this out, but the space is there to work with.
* Rear storeroom to the back of the garage which can also be accessed from the patio side of the house.
* Huge front veranda / porch – perfect as a large sitting area or for those with grander plans, a possible area to extend on in the future.

Make no mistake this is a very rare offering to the Lathlain market with opportunities like this scarce to say the least. 1/4 acre sites in the suburb do come up from time to time but rarely do they have this type of property occupying them, along with this position within the suburb making this the unicorn in the market you have been searching for! As mentioned, the location is excellent and positioned between Goddard and Gallipoli Streets and still within easy reach of the popular Lathlain Primary School, Mineral Resources Park and the Rayment Park precinct with it's vibrant weekend community vibe and great coffee and food on hand! With bus and rail transport close by as well as easy access to the Perth CBD, Swan River, Vic Park, Optus Stadium, Crown Entertainment Complex and so much more this really is a serious opportunity for all owner / occupiers, developers and long-term investors alike! If this sounds like the one for you, you'll be kicking yourself if you let it slip through your fingers.
