7/16 Eighth Avenue, Maylands, WA 6051

Not every property asks you to admire what's already been done. Some invite you to imagine what comes next. This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom ground floor unit is one of them. Mostly original, currently leased until September 2026 at $520 per week and tucked into one of Maylands' most connected pockets, it's an opportunity that's becoming very popular.

Inside, the layout is simple and practical. The open-plan lounge and dining sit at the front of the home, with timber-look flooring underfoot and a split system air conditioner keeping things comfortable through Perth's long summers. The kitchen is unmistakably from another era, still perfectly usable, but ready for someone with fresh ideas when the time feels right.

The main bedroom is a comfortable size, complete with a large built-in robe (sold as is) and ceiling fan. The second bedroom works equally well as a guest room or home office. The bathroom carries its original charm too, with a shower over the bath and a separate toilet tucked behind its own partition. The laundry shares the same space, practical, uncomplicated and one less room to clean.

Outside, the real draw is what surrounds you. Mornings can begin with a walk beside the Swan River. Coffee is only ever a short wander away along Whatley Crescent or Guildford Road, where cafés, bakeries, small bars and independent shops have quietly become part of the neighbourhood's rhythm. The train into the city is an easy walk, and Perth's CBD sits less than five kilometres away. St John of God Mount Lawley Hospital is close by, making everyday convenience part of the package.
This isn't a home pretending to be something it's not. It's honest. It's original. And for the right buyer, it's full of possibilities. Whether you're planning your next renovation, looking for a solid investment or simply chasing a foothold in one of Perth's most character-filled suburbs, this one is well worth a closer look.
