81 Shaftesbury Avenue, Bedford, WA 6052

Yoga mat not required.

Suit yourself with this super sweet 3x1 character home with an extra shower and loo. With its versatile floorplan and plentiful space, it's easy to customise it to your family's lifestyle, both immediately and down the track should your needs change. Aside from the standard inclusions you'd expect – generously sized bedrooms, a tidy kitchen, an absolutely charming living room, bathroom that comes complete with skylight – there are also some spaces that feel like bonuses. Use them as you wish! There's the sitting room connecting the second and third bedrooms, which could double as a study, kids' activity room, or studio space. Or simply somewhere to display cool collectibles, if that's your jam. The dining room can host a small crowd comfortably, which is excellent if you love throwing the occasional dinner party or simply inviting loved ones around for regular get-togethers. But again it could be converted to a games room or extra living space if you're not a dining table kind of household. Or if you prefer your dining to be alfresco as much as possible! The big paved backyard lets you do that easily, and there's even undercover space for days when the sunshine is a bit too strong. Add some olive or lemon trees in pots, a fabulous outdoor setting, and a BBQ or maybe pool (?!), and you're sorted for outdoor dining and fun vibes. And if you want more green space? Again, you get to put your own spin on things. Landscape to your heart's content or simply sacrifice some paving, use the bricks for edging a garden bed, and voila! The choice is yours.

Location-wise, you get to go your own way in brilliant Bedford. There are a good handful of schools within a 2km radius, which is great news if you have a young family. As is the proximity to parks and reserves, including Hillcrest with its footy club and Beaufort with its playground. You're also totally spoilt for choice when it comes to dining out, whether it's a quick coffee on your way to work, weekend brunches with old friends, or dinner dates with your beloved. Beaufort Street is only 180m away and Grand Prom only 550m, and along them both you'll find gems including Our Table, Chakra, General Public, Django's, Finlay & Sons, Spice Town, Il Milanese, Bay Bay's, and Testun. Phew! The list goes on – and don't overlook the hotspots to be discovered on other streets, too – so it may take some time to narrow down your favourites. But in the meantime, there are plenty of other options when it comes to fun and socialising. Join a team or have a casual game at one of the local lawn bowls clubs (1.3km and 2km), get your skates on at the Rollerdrome (1.7km), have a swing at Embleton Golf Course (1.7km), catch some live music at Lyric's (2.6km), or catch the train from Meltham (1.3) and pop into the city – or beyond! Roll the dice, explore your options, and live life as you please.
