623A Canning Highway, Alfred Cove WA 6154

Downsizers and smaller families will love the practicality, privacy and charm of this exceptional home in a sought-after riverside locale.

Just a brief stroll to Alfred Cove Reserve, popular cafés and the banks of the Swan, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home allows for a lock-and-leave lifestyle yet has the feel of a larger-scale property.

With a touch of clever European design, such as an arched entry hall, multi-paned glass doors separating living areas and an inverted ceiling in the dining area - giving the impression of a much bigger room - there's a natural, stylish flow from the front door to the rear terrace.

There is plenty to love about the bedrooms, with plush carpets, ensuite and walk-in robe in the master and built-ins in the minor bedrooms. Find a quiet place in the separate study or enjoy a cup of coffee in the sunny and remarkably spacious living room with direct terrace access and impressive angled ceilings.

The low-maintenance, modern kitchen/dining sits adjacent to a handy breakfast bar overlooking established garden surrounds brimming with fruit trees. Outside, enjoy summer BBQs or a moment of peace and quiet under the charming covered alfresco terrace. There's an ultra-secure electric front gate and double lock-up garage with parking for two cars that opens directly to the rear.

Take a brief walk to Tompkins Park, Melville Bowling Club, Wireless Hill Reserve or tuck into pizzas and pinot at popular eateries on your doorstep. Applecross Senior High School and Booragoon Primary School are also minutes away.
