Prestigious Location and Huge Family-Sized Opportunity
When it comes to immense potential, this substantial property has it in spades, perched high on a 1082 sqm block directly opposite Nedlands Golf Club and just metres to fantastic schools, established parks and the sweeping river foreshore. With so much space on which to make your mark, the options are limitless, and will no doubt appeal to those with a keen eye for renovation and/or seeking to create the ultimate family retreat with exceptional river views.
Facing family-friendly Gallop Road, the original, post-war house once the norm of the area boasts heritage elements harking back to yesteryear, with features such as colourful terrazzo tiles, art deco-style decorative designs and high ceilings that keep the house cool throughout the summer.
Find three bedrooms (or two bedrooms and a study), one large bathroom, kitchen, dining and living room, laundry annex and split-system air conditioner in the main living area, while adjoining is a self-contained studio apartment/loft above the lock-up garage, a surprisingly large space built in the 1990s with its own front balcony. Occupying a wrap-around corner block, access to the property is via Brockman Avenue or Gallop Road, or - for vehicles - a side laneway off Gallop Road, providing plenty of scope for parking and storage.
Charmingly surrounded by fruit trees such as apricot, lemon and avocado, Dalkeith's prolific lemon-scented gums and a beautiful liquid amber for all-year shade, this highly elevated property is humming with birdlife and a breezy, countryside estate atmosphere, despite enjoying a prime position in the heart of one of Perth's most covetable locales; just ten minutes to the CBD.
A stroll to Nedlands Primary School, a quick trip to the local Waratah Avenue shops and moments to Nedlands Yacht Club, the University of Western Australia and the nearby Broadway café strip, this is your once-in-a-generation chance to live the good life for many years to come.
