HASTINGS, there’s been a murder in Menora!”
Well, not quite, but home buyers will be literally crawling over each other to get their hands on this Art Deco delight.
It’s a period beauty with the stylish curves on the verandah and geometric design on the baulstrade sure to wow guests as they saunter up the driveway.
The Art Deco magic continues inside with a set of patio doors featuring matching lead-light panes, and a lovely 1920s-style artwork on the wall.

The second living area (currently used as a games room) is gorgeous, featuring ornate ceiling medallions, vintage cornicing and polished jarrah floors.
There’s a cute recess with bay windows (the perfect spot for an afternoon read or a cheeky siesta) with relaxing views of the leafy trees outside.
Normally the catch with these type of houses is space and 21st century features, but this property has been tastefully expanded to five bedrooms and two bathrooms with all the mod cons.

It’s most evident in the huge kitchen which has contrasting black benchtops and white cabinets, a walk-in pantry, and a host of top-end stainless steel appliances.
The bedrooms continue the stylish theme with that classic mix of old and new.
Especially the main ensuite which has a double shower, modern floor-to-ceiling tiles and a traditional wooden cabinet.
There’s a sheltered alfresco out the back with lots of room for a large dining table, lounge setting, BBQ and much more.
The tiered back yard is an ode to plants with a mix of cacti, shrubs, raised garden beds and mature trees.
The Voice would keep some of them, but put in a pool in the top level.
It’s lovely as-is, but there’s room to put your own stamp on things.

The home has a great layout with an attic conversion containing three bedrooms, a family bathroom and study.
The ground floor has two living zones, dining area, two bedrooms (including the main ensuite), study and laundry.
The home also includes a free-standing one-bedroom, one-bathroom studio at the rear, 100L rainwater tank, wine cellar and an under-croft garage.
Situated on a whopping 917sqm elevated block on Rookwood Street (the largest block on the street) you are close to lots of locals parks and shops, and are in the catchment for Coolbinia and Menora Primary Schools and Mount Lawley High School.
This home truly has the best of both worlds and is currently rented at $1025 per week until August 19.
