Homely House and History!

House Sold - Bedfordale WA

It is not every day that a property with history comes onto the market. This property will stretch your imagination with numerous possibilities. The building started its life, we are told, as a community hall; the type of hall that was in every country town. It was the place of many gatherings, for perhaps theatre, birthdays, engagements, weddings, dances and other major community celebrations.

Built as a hall in circa 1920’s, you can imagine a ‘run-of-the-mill-dwelling’, it is not. Stately entrance, timber floors, wonderful big rooms and hall-height ceilings, create attractive spaces everywhere. Even the bathroom is impressively big.

At one time, we are told, the property was converted into a duplex pair with the hall’s outdoor toilet block providing the second (third and fourth WC. The outhouse needs some attention now, but it offers possibilities.)

Separate from the residence is a 7x6m additional room with a makeshift kitchen and shower. For years it was used as a granny flat. You may have some other use for this space.

With the effective slow combustion fire in the middle of the house, for all its big rooms and high ceilings, this home can be cosy.

Join the trend to move out of the City, staying close by to City facilities in the trendy hills of Bedfordale.
