Retro Classic with a minimalist twist
The Perth Property Co. is thrilled to present 126 Chelmsford Road, North Perth. A 1930s Retro classic that boasts modern appeal, sits on a subdividable 460sqm block with ROW, has glimpses of the city and is just a street away from Hyde Park. This home is within walking distance of both Mount Lawley and North Perth, is ready to be lived in and loved now with its comforting accommodation or offers an enviable opportunity to develop or renovate (zoned R40).

A richness of superb local cafes, shops, popular schools and parks are in close proximity, and with the city just 2.0km away and boasting plenty of space for the family to enjoy and relax within, this abode presents the chance of a lifetime to claim a slice of a most enviable lifestyle in one of Perth's most chic and coveted urban localities.

The home opens to a wide central hallway, displaying high ceilings and original floorboards that have been stripped back to offer a stunning modern and on-trend twist to a classic feature, both the high ceilings and floorboards range throughout the home and create a great sense of warmth and space.

The first discovery to the right and at the front of the home is the large living room with feature fireplace (with Gas connection), RC air-conditioning and original double glass/wood sliding doors. Opposite the living room is the large master bedroom with ceiling fan and glimpses of the city skyline. Continuing the journey further down the hall two further bedrooms are found, both are a good size and private, again featuring those stunning floors and high ceilings.

Coming to the end of the hallway you are drawn into the bright and inviting kitchen-diner which offers another boho-chic modern twist, raw concrete flooring. The kitchen is a retro masterpiece and features a traditional wood-burner oven and wood panelling cabinetry. There is a standalone modern oven with gas stovetop and plenty of storage available too. Off the kitchen-diner is the laundry (with original double concrete trough - insert ‘rare as hen's teeth' emoji), bathroom with separate shower and petite bath, and separate WC.

The rear yard is accessed from both the laundry and kitchen-diner and is terraced, offering plenty of space to grow veggies and fruit, or establish a lawn for kid-friendly play. There is a single remote garage with access from the rear ROW and an original outdoor WC that is plumbed and can be useful for storage too. Access is available on both sides of the property and completing the outdoor conveniences is the generous front garden that has lawn, is lined with roses and leads to the elevated porch characteristic of homes of this period.

Whether you are wanting to enjoy a classic retro home, or enthusiastically renovate to create a modern marvel, this abode is a great entry point into a thriving and cherished location, and opportunities like this are few and far between.
