Magical Como, Perth in Western Australia

On a hill in a quiet street in Como, you will find our lovely home. It is surrounded by trees and gardens with lots to see and enjoy, including nearby Perth City and the Swan River and all its wildlife.

Como is well connected with walking trails, bicycle paths, railway station and bus stops. It is 6km south of Perth City. A 1km walk away is a busy street with cafes, restaurants, a supermarket, bakery and tavern. Within a 2km radius there are a lots of shopping and entertainment precincts.

The house has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, lounge and kitchen, laundry, and reading room. Spread over 4 levels, each space is a mix of views, light, and comfort.

A word about the stairs ... 4 levels you need to climb as there is no lift. Legs and balance improve and yoou do get used to them.

The airy kitchen/dining area is a comfortable hub with double glazed windows, blinds and shutters, all overlooking the gardens and street. The front courtyard is fully fenced and ready for BBQs and outdoor dining, bird watching, even quiet reading.

The best features of the house? Private, comfortable, lovely views.

About the location

Como is a lovely place, friendly and quiet. It is famous for its Little White Dogs and it is no coincidence there are lots of parks and green spaces here. Como is centrally located so an ideal base to stay in Perth.

Our house is next to the river and the city, set amongst trees, nature and wildlife including birds, swans, pelicans and dolphins. Come awake to the birds in the treetops, then wander down to the river and walk to a cafe for breakfast.

Como is linked to Perth and Fremantle by reliable train and bus services. Or walk, cycle, drive to your destination.

Nearby attractions include Perth Zoo, Optus Stadium, Perth Ferry, Como Beach, golf courses, fitness studios, Kings Park, Rottnest Island ferries, and of course the City with its theatre, festivals, events, restaurants and markets.
