 THIS catch of a home is a mix of old cottage charm and modern minimalism.

Become a part of Eighth Avenue – a gloriously tree-lined street – in Inglewood where you are located among lush parks and amenities, and can enjoy close proximity to the city.

The 125sqm home on the 311sqm block is a three-bedroom, one bathroom. 

It would suit a small-medium sized family, singles, professional couples, or any homebuyer interested in a charming, low-maintenance option with a great location. 

This minimal maintenance lifestyle home is going for offers around $925,000. 

The home is character aplenty, and a lot of that is thanks to its original features.

Built in 1935, the home sports both modern and old-world details. 

Across the house there’s pendant lighting, gorgeous wooden floorboards, nice windowsills and decorative, high ceilings with cornices. Another timeless touch is the front leadlight windows that have a classy geometric design to them.

The formal lounge room is ready to be savoured, with a fireplace on standby. Around the fireplace is plenty of space to configure a comfortable lounge, desk and or armchair. 

Ceiling roses at the end of each pendant light are striking and intricate. It’s a stunning touch and its stylish geometric pattern reminds me of something out of the Great Gatsby – very art deco.

The centre of the house is the living room. And the central space becomes a cosy meeting point for all family members to congregate, rest and relax.

The first bedroom is the most spacious of the three, and includes textured walls, the front window views and a neat ensuite. Other bedrooms have similar features, and if a family were to move in, these would ideally be the kids’ rooms.

Nifty

The kitchen is also another open space that would translate easily with everyday family life. It’s pretty nifty and includes adequate storage and bench space. 

The white kitchen overlooks the dining area and there’s even a small study nook in the room’s corner. The space would also come in handy when entertaining. There is even an entry to the outside dining room here, for when you want to move the party outside or even enjoy a meal comfortably to yourself in the outdoors.

The backyard while smaller than the front yard space, includes a garden shed and some potential space to achieve a nice outdoor hangout. The Chook imagine a fire pit or small outdoor lounge would be just the touch.

The location underpins this home’s glow, being only moments away from popular Beaufort Street entertainment, restaurants, and cafes. Mount Lawley golf and tennis clubs are a walk away and add so much green to the surrounds. Inglewood Primary and Mount Lawley High School make the catchment. Edith Cowan University is near. As is Perth CBD (12 minute drive) and Perth airport (20 minute drive).

This home on Eight Avenue home presents an attractive, low-key lifestyle. Especially small families, couples or really anyone seeking a green, urban, cosy and low matienennce space.
