A North Perth corner store transformed into the coolest house on the block

Plus a few fun things to do this weekend.

Happy Friday and happy halfway mark of the school holidays for those counting down the days.

Waterfall season is in full swing, so we’ve dug up our master list of the best all over the state, whether that’s north, south, east or close to home. And down the bottom Robeson Architects nail another North Perth home, this time applying their unique touch to a very recognisable corner store.

If you’re chasing some truffle-y goodness then Freo Markets is the place to be this weekend, if you’re chasing some swell the Whalebone Classic returns to Cott, and if you’re West Coast chasing a win, there’s no better time than Sunday for Jamie Cripps - playing his 250th game for the Eagles!

This North Perth corner store transformed into the coolest house on the block

It seems like all the best renovations start with an old corner store. Maybe it’s that sweet spot between nostalgia and modern architecture. Either way, this glow-up in North Perth proves that smart design can make a big impact.
