Welcome to a character home that was built in 1940 and has stood the test of time … and won! As you would expect in a house from this era, there are high ceilings and lots of timber touches – like jarrah doors and floorboards, wide skirting boards and jarrah architraves throughout.
Over the years, improvements have been made including re-roofing and insulation plus new vinyl flooring – installed last year – to name a few.
In total, there are three bedrooms with built-in sliding door robes in the master bedroom along with a built-in desk in bedroom 3. Good news too – the bathroom has a corner vanity plus shower and toilet. There is also a second toilet.
Other features include gas cooking, reverse cycle air conditioner, gas bayonet and gas instant hot water system. There is also a sunroom / office as well as a semi enclosed patio.
To the rear, a powered garage / workshop stands. There is also side access along with two carports. Fruit trees are in abundance on the block that measures 1,072m2 with boundary fencing on three sides.
At present, a periodic rental tenancy is in place at a return of $290 per week and that includes lawnmowing.
Main street Mount Barker is one street away. Imagine that … lots of short walks to be had to the supermarket and cafes.
For the history buffs, the house was built by William and Louisa Venn in 1940. Louisa lived at 9 Lord Street for many years and the house was known as “Lou-Lou's” place.
