CALLING ALL RENOVATORS…Located on the cusp of the Hills, but close enough to the city, with an abundance of quality touches – this Circa 1940’s cottage is itching for a dedicated soul to give it the love and attention it deserves. With careful restoration, vision and hard work – this 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom home is the perfect candidate for a full makeover…polishing up its old-world features until they shine and adding those modern touches for convenience. Boasting Jarrah floors, high ceilings, stained glass art deco windows and a blank slate backyard, 4 Stuart Street is your next passion project.

Screened by a tall thatch of foliage and encircled by a front yard with simple garden beds and a meandering pathway, the dual weatherboard/fibro and faux-brick facade of 4 Stuart Street offers a glimpse at the strong bones of this mid-century home.

A wide decked verandah alongside the carport and entrance way provides a shady, comfortable spot to watch the world go by over a cup of tea.

The foyer is enhanced by high ceilings and jarrah floors, with plaster decals in the archways and ornate hanging light fixtures adding to the vintage atmosphere.

The main bedroom/original living room features an ornamental fireplace with a dark brick mantle – a warm centrepiece to build the room around. Stained glass art deco windows, high ceilings and Jarrah boards, (currently hidden beneath the lino), provide gorgeous features to work with.

The second bedroom lies adjacent the family bathroom – is large with Jarrah boards and requires work to the ceiling.

The third bedroom, set off from the kitchen, is a sun-drenched sleepout which could provide a private sanctuary for a teenager or a bright space for a studio, reading nook or study.

The bathroom features a baby blue enamel bathtub and freestanding enamel washbasin, a framing window and wooden floors.

The lounge room – complemented by warm boards, period windows and a slow combustion fire is a serene space that opens into the dining room and beyond.

The kitchen is tiled and features strong bones for renovation, with natural lighting, a wooden cabinetry framework with abundant storage options and bench space available.

A tidy laundry and WC lie adjacent a sunny sleepout/semi enclosed verandah at the rear of the home.

The backyard has a paved alfresco area which – with TLC, can be turned into a stunning outdoor entertaining area. A large workshop with dual access to the level 647m block completes this renovators dream.

With careful restoration, this well-positioned property located a mere 5 minutes from Midland and at the neck of the rolling bushland of the Perth Hills, can be a diamond in the crown of Greenmount.

This 1945 cottage carries old world charm in its bones, with its stained-glass art deco windows, timber flooring and plaster decals requiring a lot of love to fully shine.
