Just two doors down from the sprawling Forrest Park, only walking distance away from the vibrant food, caf, shopping and entertainment precinct that is Beaufort Street and a matter of minutes from the heart of the Perth CBD itself lies this excellent 3 bedroom 1 bathroom multi-level residence that can be accessed via the privacy of a rear laneway and encourages a low-maintenance "lock-up-and-leave" lifestyle, sure to interest professional couples, down-sizers and city-workers alike.
A lovely north-facing courtyard off the laneway is securely gated and doubles as your main entry into the house, revealing a welcoming downstairs front lounge room warmed by polished - and refurbished - native Sheoak wooden floorboards that flow through to a separate dining and kitchen area. There, double sinks, quality tap fittings, a stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher, a gas cooktop, a new range hood, a new DeLonghi oven and a storage pantry meet outdoor access to a "back" courtyard and garden with pedestrian laneway access to Harold Street.
Upstairs, brand-new carpet has been laid to the bedrooms, upgraded with soft underlay for good measure. The pick of the sleeping quarters is a spacious, light-filled master suite with full-height built-in wardrobes, splendid views out to the park and of the chirping local birdlife rustling through the leafy laneway and semi-ensuite access into the practical bathroom where a bathtub and showerhead lie in wait.
The surprising floor plan is extended further by a winding staircase that leads up to a large loft with a pitched cathedral-style ceiling and window, snapshots of both a parkland and city vista and the potential to be converted into either a home office, studio or fourth bedroom for those seeking a tranquil place to kick back and unwind from. As far as parking goes, the tandem double carport can also be accessed from the laneway that links Curtis Street with Kaata Lane to the west.
Enjoy strolling to the likes of The Queens pub, the popular Mary Street Bakery, bus stops, the North Metropolitan TAFE Mount Lawley campus and other wonderful schools and educational facilities whilst also indulging in a very close proximity to the Mount Lawley and East Perth Train Stations, HBF Park, hospitals, our picturesque Swan River, beautiful Hyde Park and much, much more. This is a dream location that is almost too good to refuse!
