A RARE GEM

It’s not very often that the Sequel is better than the Original but in the case of 67 Kenny Street, Bassendean, this gorgeous early 1920’s Weatherboard & Iron character home aptly named “The Cottage” has been totally & fully renovated with loving care and attention applied to every last detail, meaning you can literally move in without lifting a finger!

Featuring a perfect blend of original character features combined with the best of today’s modern inclusions, this tastefully renovated home is situated in a desirable neighbourhood on one of the best streets in Bassendean and is surrounded by a host of other lovingly restored and cared for residences, making it the ideal place to come home to.

Fully Re-Wired, Re-Stumped, Re-Roofed, Re-Plumbed, Insulated AND freshly painted inside and out, you can own this stunning home with nothing left to do but move your furniture in and enjoy all the hard work that has been done by the very proud & fastidious current owners.

From the welcoming front verandah right through to the very private rear gazebo adjoining the pool area, the only problem you’ll have is deciding which spot will be your favourite place to spend time in.

The story begins behind a privacy wall where the front entrance hall evokes feelings of timeless splendour. Showcasing original stained glass above the front door, wide jarrah floorboards, high profile skirting boards and restored 3.0 metre high ceilings leading all the way past the bedrooms and renovated bathroom, you are carried right through to the expansive open plan living area with views over the pool.

There are no converted sleepouts in this home, which provides for an open, light-filled and airy living space you’ll love spending time in.

Two of the three spacious bedrooms feature original fireplaces and a front room boasts double French Doors with original leadlights that open out to the front verandah, making this an ideal spot to relax – reading your latest book, or just catching up on all the latest posts.

The huge and fully-refurbished Bathroom has been done beautifully and features a double vanity, a large separate rainfall shower, 2nd WC and an original cast iron, claw-foot bath tub.

Continuing the sensory experience, an eye-catching kitchen that you will be happy to spend your time in features Stainless steel appliances, loads of clever storage, a Dishwasher and Breakfast bar & overlooks the light-filled open plan living area with full height windows offering unobstructed views to the pool area & rear gardens.

Pull back the fully retractable concertina doors and step out to your decked seating area, enjoying the morning sunrise with a freshly brewed coffee, or grab a bottle (and a glass) and watch the moon rise peacefully above the Perth Hills.

The Below Ground pool area is an Entertainer’s dream with built-in seating and private Gazebo covered with an evergreen creeper. The automated chlorinator makes caring for your pool incredibly easy and the current owners find they don’t even need to leave the house during Perth’s long hot summers! Just one look and you’ll instantly know this will be the place for many a memory to be made.

The yards are well-maintained and very Easycare – the perfect size to potter in tending to your raised vegetable gardens and an ample size for pets or youngsters to play in total privacy and safety.
