Overview

Situated on an expansive elevated block of approximately 5,218 square metres on the edge of Northam, this unique dual-residence property offers a blend of spacious family living and distinct private accommodation.

The main residence, crafted from double brick and iron, is a testament to enduring quality and thoughtful design. It features three bedrooms, with two offering built-in robes and one boasting a walk-in robe, complemented by a lounge room brightened by bay windows that invite natural light and provide picturesque outlooks. The kitchen adjoins the dining area overlooking the serene rear gardens, enhancing the domestic ambiance. Practicality is underscored by the inclusion of a main bathroom, separate toilet, and an additional shower and toilet within the laundry—perfect for managing the demands of a busy household or for those returning from work or outdoor activities.

Adding to the versatility of the property is a separate one-bedroom residence, initially conceived for extended family use. With its own kitchen, living area, walk-in robe, bathroom, private entrance, and dedicated hot water system, this space offers independence while remaining connected to the main home via an internal door. This thoughtful arrangement caters well to multigenerational families, guests, or teenagers seeking privacy.
