'Banksia Rose' - Character, Charm and Modern Style, 250m to Beaumont Street
Sitting pretty as a picture just one block from Beaumont Street and steeped in undeniable period charm, 'Banksia Rose' is a gorgeous c.1920's weatherboard treasure that oozes character and is ready for immediate enjoyment, with potential to improve over time. Time appropriate details accompany this inviting two-bedroom home – ornate plaster ceilings, timber floors and a leadlight window are all elegant reminders of a time gone by. Windows have been added to the northern side of the gun-barrel hallway to add beautiful natural light and the floorplan has been opened to create a free-flowing space between the spacious lounge room and eat-in kitchen. Stepping out the back door you will find landscaped gardens and a deck for alfresco enjoyment along with the unexpected delights of the rear lane which provides access to a multi-purpose shed, which could be converted to a garage/off-street parking. Out on street level, it's a 240m stroll to Learmonth Park and Beaumont Street where cosmopolitan dining, great coffee and local shops are all yours to enjoy.
