1 James Road, Swanbourne
Rare in both its size and its status as one of the few remaining Swanbourne super blocks, this classic quarter-acre property is ideally positioned on one of the area's most sought-after streets. It offers a unique opportunity to own two homes on a single title, doubling the potential rental income for the astute investor.
Options abound - live in one residence and lease out the other or clear the site to build your dream coastal family home. The zoning allows for a single-residential masterpiece if that's your vision. Alternatively, you could add modern touches through creative renovations, creating one larger house suited for multi-generational living.
Whatever path you choose, you'll inherit a front 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home with its own driveway, along with a more substantial rear 4x2 two-storey home with its own parking and a spacious backyard. Both homes feature separate living areas, dining spaces, kitchens and laundries, and are solid enough to be lived in or rented out immediately.
Embrace the best of the Western Suburbs with this exceptional offering. Allen Park precinct is mere minutes away where a vibrant community atmosphere is alive and well with its quintessential "neighbourhood" tennis, footy and rugby clubs. A leisurely stroll will find you at The Shorehouse overlooking the stunning Swanbourne Beach. Top-tier schools, trendy coastal cafes and restaurants are also all within easy reach. When it comes to opportunity and location, this very unique property is pure gold!
