57A Wood Street, White Gum Valley WA 6162

Family-Friendly Sanctuary in Tranquil Surrounds

This super cute 1950s weatherboard cottage is definitely stylish, a little quirky, and very Freo! Beautifully presented and framed by lush established gardens, it offers a family haven more spacious than you may think.

Occupying a 438sqm block and steps from White Gum Valley Primary School, this character-filled beauty boasts three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two separate internal living areas and gorgeous front and rear outdoor spaces. Its pretty weatherboard and iron exterior is private and welcoming, with two front entrances - one at the side via a timber walkway and the other through a gorgeous leadlight door.

Almost every window enjoys an outlook of thriving greenery, starting with the lounge overlooking the enclosed front yard. Further in, two spacious secondary bedrooms share a beautifully appointed family bathroom, complete with pressed tin tiles, a shower/bath combo, and a European-style laundry niftily concealed behind bi-fold doors. Step down to the beautiful main suite comprising a raked panelled ceiling, a walk-in robe, a private ensuite with a rain shower and French doors leading out to a peaceful alfresco pergola.

The sunken second living area is an impressive and inviting space with a soaring vaulted ceiling and fan, a polished concrete floor, a split system air conditioning unit and French timber doors leading outside. Adjacent, the light-filled kitchen features several multi-paned windows showcasing the climbing jasmine outside, an island bench filled with soft-closing drawers, a freestanding gas oven and cooktop and a dishwasher. The dining area sits beneath a chic triple pendant light, close to where you'll cook up a storm for family and guests.

A pleasant surprise is the conversion of the original single garage to a home gym/personal training studio, equipped with a rubber floor, double-glazed windows and an air conditioning unit. Open the roller door and find a handy storeroom for your mower, tools and extra fitness equipment!

White Gum Valley's close-knit, community-minded neighbourhood is ready to welcome you. You'll love the proximity to the magnificent Booyeembarra Park and Stevens Reserve, and the convenience of residing walking distance from the centre of our favourite port city and its endless social and cultural attractions.
