What a location! This property is situated in the heart of Darlington, yet set down the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with no passing traffic. A 2-minute walk brings you out to the town centre with local cafes and shops all at your fingertips.
The home features incredible timber craftsmanship and artistic stain glass, rarely seen in today's residential architecture, but so typical of these turn of the century' hills homes. Open plan living, timber lined kitchen, a warm wood burning fireplace, study nook, 2 identical kid's bedrooms with built-in cubby bunks, a master bedroom, bathroom and deck overlooking your back yard completes the upper level of this home, while the lower level features a kid's rumpus room or second living, a modern bathroom, laundry and lower courtyard, perfect for summer BBQ's and entertaining. The home is packed with shelving space and storage.
With an abundance of outdoor space on offer, the opportunities are endless. Grow your own veggies, rear your own chickens, or simply just enjoy having space where the kids can run free!
If you're looking for a self-sufficient lifestyle, look no further. This home features a massive 196,000 litre water tank with built in pressure-sensitive pump (you can switch between mains water or tank water at any time), 8 solar panels providing 1.5 kWatts, a chicken coop and a 30-year-old veggie patch which has fertile soil to grow your choice of vegetables and herbs.
If you're looking for a tree change, or simply the lifestyle that this quaint village offers, then this property is for you. A great entry level property to the area with no compromise on useable land-size. Family life up here will prove to be pleasant and fulfilling. A sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle, yet only 35 mins from the city, 20 mins from the airport, 20 mins from the swan valley and 14 mins to Midland on one side and 14 mins to Mundaring on the other.
Bring the family, bring the pets, this home is ready and waiting for you!
The current owner has called this property home for the past 30 years! Sadly, it is now time to downsize. Having purchased elsewhere, this home must be sold.
