Ideally located to schools, parks, transport and the Beaufort Street Strip, this classic character home is being offered for sale for the first time in over 55 years.

Full of charm, promise and original features, it has a terrific layout to work with and renovate as is, or to extend now or in the future to suit your individual needs. The front facade boasts all of the lovely character details you wish for but seldom find, including a wide return verandah, feature gables, roof finials and awning. Inside there's the original wide jarrah boards, pretty entry hall with leadlights, picture rail, timber fretwork and ornate ceiling rose, three bedrooms - the main with fireplace, large formal lounge, kitchen big enough for a small dining table plus bathroom, laundry, separate WC and large sleep out - the latter being an ideal second living or meals area, study or potential fourth bedroom.

With generous side access, rear ROW and a big backyard, there's oodles of room for a pool, workshop or large grassed area for the kids (or pets) to play.

Original character homes are becoming increasing rare and rarer still are the ones that are as practically laid out and ideally suited to renovating as this. There's no awkwardly placed rooms or dodgy extensions to deal with, the benefit of having three proper bedrooms under the main roof, a decent sized sleepout that could easily be transformed into something stunning with a set of modern bifolds and a kitchen/meals area with a full height ceiling.

So if you're in the hunt for a great character home on a full sized block in a sought after suburb to renovate now or down the track, here it is. Check out the floor plans, come to the home open and see for yourself the potential that's on offer here - you'll be glad you did.
