The kind of rare that has you moving fast and celebrating later.
Looking for character, potential, and also a very smart play? You may have just spotted your personal mythical (property) creature. Circa 1937, solid brick and tile, sitting on 413sqm with R80 zoning, and just enough personality intact to make you fall a little bit in love before you even pick up a paintbrush. It's been sold 'as is' and needs some TLC, but it's far from a lost cause. In fact, quite the opposite: high ceilings, ceiling roses, ornate cornices, timber floors underfoot, and a central fireplace ready to anchor a very special home. Two oversized front bedrooms deliver retreat energy, with a third large bedroom tucked just off the living room for total flexibility. The kitchen and bathroom have enjoyed modest updates over time, so you're not exactly starting from scratch, but you're also not at all locked into what someone else thought was a trendy idea, which is really where the magic lies. Renovate, extend, reconfigure… or take total advantage of the North Claisebrook Planning Framework and explore the development potential. The backyard is a blank canvas with only a shed, otherwise plenty of room to become whatever you need it to be. There's even a wide verandah out front, a picket fence moment, and parking sorted with a carport plus extra space. It's not polished perfection. It's possibility, wrapped in character, in a suburb that knows exactly what it's doing.
Location wise, well, this is Perth showing off. Start close to home with Loton Park Tennis Club (240m) for a hit, Lord Street Social (350m) for your morning caffeine hit, and East Perth train station (450m) to help getting where you need to be easy as pie. Green space is everywhere here, with Brigatti Gardens (600m), Jack Marks Reserve (800m), Forrest Park (1.1km), and Hyde Park (1.6km) all ready for anything from lazy strolls to full reset mode. When it's time to eat, drink, or make a night of it, you're absolutely spoiled. Si Paradiso (1km), Molly's Irish Pub (1.2km), The Queens (1.3km), The Beaufort (1.3km), The Brisbane Hotel (850m), and 399 Small Bar (1.4km), with live music and late nights handled beautifully by Ellington Jazz Club (1.2km). Dining is just as stacked with Ischia on Beaufort (1.2km), Twenty Seats (350m), and Tom's Providore (800m), while your daytime treats are covered by Teeter Bakery (280m), Chocolatine (800m), Mary Street Bakery (1.3km), Madeleine (1.2km), and Chu Bakery (1.3km). Woolworths Highgate (600m) keeps things practical, Claisebrook Cove (1.6km) brings the waterfront mood when you need it, Beaufort Street (2.7km) delivers that iconic strip of everything, and the Perth CBD (2.1km) sits just close enough to remind you you're right in the thick of it without it being all too much.
