DOUBLEVIEW

THE DEAL

Held by the same family since it was built in 1957, this is one of those rare South Doubleview holdings that has never been on the market and has never been let go. The home sits proudly on 1,042sqm zoned R30, with 18.1m of frontage to Sydenham Road and a substantial 61.52m frontage to Ruswil Lane, a gazetted laneway, plus a third frontage to Bassett Lane (not gazetted) at the rear. Dual street access on a block of this size, in this pocket, is genuinely hard to find and provides endless possibilities for the new owner.

Step inside and the care of one careful owner is immediately obvious. The original three bedroom, one bathroom home has been maintained to an immaculate standard, with a warm, honest layout that has aged remarkably well. Living spaces are neat and light filled, the kitchen is tidy and functional, and the bedrooms are comfortably proportioned. It is the kind of home you can move straight into, rent out while you plan, or keep at the front while you develop the rear.

Then there are the views. From the current home you look out across the city, the hills and the inland horizon, a vista that lifts the whole property. From a future second storey, that outlook becomes something special, the sort of elevated position that buyers spend years searching for and rarely secure at this scale.

The options here are the real story. Retain and renovate the original residence and build behind it. Explore a considered subdivision using the laneway access. Or start fresh and design a home or homes that makes the most of the elevation and the northern light. Whichever direction you take, the fundamentals are already in your favour.

South Doubleview continues to be one of Perth's most consistently sought after coastal-adjacent suburbs, and the position is a large part of the appeal. Scarborough Beach and the foreshore are a short drive away, as are Karrinyup Shopping Centre and the cafés and small bars along Scarborough Beach Road. St Dominic's Primary, Doubleview Primary and Churchlands Senior High and numerous leading Private Schools are all within easy reach, with parks and green space nearby and the city an uncomplicated commute.
