29 Pelham Street, York, WA 6302

The Original York Bakery - Overflowing with Charm, Character, and Space

The ovens are off, but the dough is rising - and this is one you knead to see! Brimming with history and unique charm, 29 Pelham Street presents an extraordinary opportunity to secure a large character home on a generously sized 2,232 SQM block in the heart of York.

Originally operating as York's bakery, this 1890-built home showcases striking Flemish bond brickwork, tall ceilings, wide jarrah floorboards, original fireplaces, and spacious proportions throughout. With five bedrooms-three of which are oversized and adaptable as additional living areas or work-from-home zones-this residence offers exceptional flexibility for families, creatives, and lifestyle seekers alike.

Step through the gracious formal entry and into a large lounge room, complete with a slow combustion fireplace, exposed brickwork, and French doors that open to the verandah-creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection and highlighting the home's timeless elegance.

The rear of the home houses a beautiful farmhouse-style kitchen and dining space, where heritage charm meets modern function. Character stone feature walls, shaker cabinetry, timber benchtops, a freestanding cooker, butler's sink, and walk-in pantry set the tone, while the space is large enough to double as an informal living room. A special highlight is the small exposed stone section near the French doors, leading out to a grapevine-draped alfresco with stone features-a courtyard that feels like a touch of Europe in the WA countryside.

Both the bathroom and laundry are updated in a soft, modern palette, and the layout includes dedicated study or storage rooms, ceiling fans, and reverse cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort. Solar panels help keep your bills low, and the block is well fenced for pets.

Outside, you'll find blooming gardens, raised veggie beds, fruit trees, a chicken coop, and composting area, plus a rustic old-style shed, a shipping container (included in the sale), and a large powered Colorbond workshop with a shaded patio area-ideal for entertaining, tinkering, or hobbies.
Additional features include:
• Five spacious rooms, ideal for bedrooms, study zones or additional living.
• Farmhouse kitchen with freestanding oven, butler's sink, and walk-in pantry.
• French doors from kitchen/dining to brick-paved grapevine alfresco.

Council Rates 24/25  $2295.01

The R10/30 zoning in Western Australia is a dual-density residential code. It means the property can be developed at the lower R10 density (typically one dwelling per 1,000m²) by default, but may be eligible for development at the higher R30 density. Accessing the R30 potential usually requires council approval and compliance with specific design or location-based requirements under the local planning scheme.

This is an amazing opportunity to secure a rare, large character home with soul, space, and flexibility in one of WA's most charming historic towns. Once the heart of York's daily bread, this original bakery has been lovingly transformed into a warm, inviting home - kneaded over time into something truly special. The ovens may be off, but the charm is freshly baked, and the lifestyle on offer is anything but half-baked. Don't miss your slice of York - this one's ready to rise again.
