Real charm

THIS Maylands home has bundles of personality.

The vintage fireplace, exposed brickwork in the kitchen and kitsch laundry are just some of the features that make this two-bedroom, one-bathroom property memorable.

The hub of the home is the elegant lounge, which has high ceilings and decorative cornicing.

The aforementioned fireplace completes the pretty picture, and this living area is a lovely spot to relax after a hard day’s work.

A bold choice is the exposed brickwork in the kitchen.

But it works spectacularly well, adding some nice texture and depth to the white cupboards and drawers.

It’s a well-designed, U-shaped kitchen with a wide stainless-steel oven and plenty of light streaming through the double windows above the sink.

There’s also a separate dining room. Open plan is now de rigueur, but the Voice likes having a noise buffer between the lounge and the kitchen. 

The laundry off to the side continues the bespoke touches with a large industrial-chic, trough-like sink.

It’s another little flourish that separates this property from the herd.

With the temperatures now consistently into the 20s, the new owners will be spending a lot of time in the charming back garden.

It’s a shady number with plenty of lush trees and plants, and the limestone bricks really set it off.

A great selling point is the elevated deck, where you can enjoy a relaxing glass of vino with your better half.

It really is quite high, so you can peep over the surrounding rooftops and enjoy the sunsets.

Down the side of the house, you’ll find an alfresco patio with a ceiling fan, so there are plenty of places to enjoy the great Aussie summer.

The bedrooms continue the elegant theme, with the main having direct access to the garden via a set of stylish French doors.

The surprise package is the massive, super-wide walk-in robe in the second bedroom (rare in a 2×1).

You’ll never run short of space for all your Speedos and jocks.

The home includes a porch, split-system air con and timber benchtops in the kitchen.

Situated on a 366sqm block on Kelvin Street, the home is near Gibbney Reserve, and it’s not far from all the small bars, cafes and restaurants on Eighth Avenue.

This is a surprisingly spacious Maylands home with lots of personality.
