The original kitchen is pretty in pink at 6 Banfield St, Bell Park. Time has stood still at a retro Bell Park house that looks as if it’s been preserved since the 1950s. The cherished three-bedroom brick residence at 6 Banfield St is selling in original condition, with floral wallpaper and carpets and a classic mid-century kitchen winding the clock back several decades.
There’s even a vintage IXL stove that’s been preserved alongside a slightly more contemporary oven and cooktop combo.

It is one of those properties which you see quite often around Bell Park to do with that European style interior that even my grandmother has.
“It would be great for first-home buyers, sitting on such a large block with the potential for subdivision and it’s got a lot of character.” The brick home has been owned by the same family for about 60 years. The lounge pairs wallpaper with floral carpet.
