IN terms of riverside location, it doesn’t get much better than this Mt Pleasant block.
Situated on The Esplanade near the Mt Henry Bridge, the block has glorious vistas of the Canning River and the Perth CBD in the distance.
Unlike the foreshore at Applecross, it’s shielded from the wind, making it a clement spot all year round.
And what a playground on your doorstep—fishing, sailing, or walking and cycling along the gorgeous shared footpath at the water’s edge.
The short circuit along the river and over the Mt Henry and Canning bridges is a fantastic cycle for adults and kids of any age and fitness.
If that wasn’t enough, there are plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby including The Pav, Dôme and the Raffles Hotel.
With an upward-sloping 1028sqm block to play with, you can go for two storeys and maximise those views.
Usually when you have an older house on a massive block, it’s a knock-down-rebuild job.
But this four-bedroom, two-bathroom number is a charming abode with lots of character.
It starts at the top of the driveway with lush plants and trees casting shadows onto the cream facade and gable roof.
Inside, the rooms are bright, airy and spacious.
There’s not much in the way of clutter, so you could renovate the existing space easily.
The use of natural wood grain in the kitchen is a bit of a 1970s throwback, but that retro look is actually starting to come back into fashion.
There’s great light in the kitchen, courtesy of the large bank of windows above the sink and benchtops.
The Chook really likes the large sunroom, which has floor-to-ceiling glass doors and windows.
It’s hard not to feel relaxed looking at all that greenery outside.
From here, it opens to a sheltered patio with bistro blinds, giving you a year-round outdoor space.
It’s like a room within a room—the mirror scene in Citizen Kane meets Waldecks.
The carpeted main bedroom is absolutely huge, and again there’s plenty of room to put your own stamp on things.
The other bedrooms are neat and tidy without being super modern.
So plenty of options—bulldoze, renovate, or move in and build later. The block is green title and zoned R12.5.
There are lots of great schools nearby including Mount Pleasant Primary School, Applecross Senior High School and Santa Maria College. And if you work in the city, it’s not far to Canning Bridge Station.
This is a generous block in a great Mt Pleasant spot.
