Riverside Sanctuary in the Heart of Bicton

Tucked away towards the rear in a small group of 8 units, sits this lovingly maintained home offering the best in lock up and leave living. A leisurely wander from your front door will take you to the river, the shops at Melville plaza or brunch at the Moreing Road gourmet village in this highly walkable location close to everything. <br/><br/>In a peaceful setting behind a flourishing front garden of colourful blooms, fresh white interiors provide the perfect blank-canvas to add your own style. The open-plan layout creates a sense of space, accentuated by the west-facing bay window, with an air-conditioning unit above for year-round comfort. Two bedrooms extend down the hallway, one with a built-in robe and the other with a lovely east-facing garden outlook. They each share the bathroom that has retained its vintage 70s original tiles with a spacious rainwater shower, complemented by a modern vanity and toilet.<br/><br/>The combined laundry and kitchen has been beautifully renovated with fine finishings; white benchtops, soft-close cabinetry, brass tapware, artisan-style tiled splashback, and sleek appliances, while the clever design allows space for a dishwasher if needed. Adding visual interest and practicality is the internal pass-through window with a recycled jarrah benchtop and storage space beneath.<br/><br/>The kitchen opens up to the sunny backyard, a private courtyard to put a small outdoor setting surrounded by even more greenery below the Hardenbergia climbing vine. The easy-care front and rear gardens have so much variety; everlasting flowers, native hibiscus, frangipani, bottlebrush, rosemary and birds of paradise, all adding to the serenity found in this peaceful riverside pocket. <br/><br/>A single lock up garage is the finishing touch to this safe and secure home, with visitors parking for guests and wonderful neighbours. Everything you need is on your doorstep - walk, bus, bike or drive to the river, shops, cafés, schools, Fremantle or nearby beaches before coming home to tranquillity.<br/><br/>Ideal for first home owners, downsizers, FIFO workers, professionals or investors - this is a brilliant entry opportunity to Bicton with nothing left to do but move in and enjoy your new riverside lifestyle. <br/><br/><br/>2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 1 car<br/>• Original 70s unit in small group of 8, tucked towards the rear<br/>• Fresh white interiors, renovated kitchen, open-plan layout<br/>• Low maintenance home, lovely front & rear gardens, private backyard<br/>• Air-conditioning, security screen doors, single lock up garage<br/>• Vintage tiling retained in bathroom, contemporary vanity <br/>• Master bedroom with built-in robe<br/>• Safe & secure complex, visitor parking, great neighbours<br/>• Easy walkability to shops, river, public transport, schools, cafés <br/>• Bus, ride or drive to Freo & nearby beaches in 10 minutes<br/><br/>Council Rates: $1,715.90 per annum (approx) <br/>Water Rates: $956.90 per annum (approx)<br/>Strata Rates:$862.50 per quarter (approx)
