ON 50 ELEVATED ACRES ON THE SCARP!Zoned 'Rural' and located in a stunning position set back 350 metres from the highway, this beautiful property offers the lucky purchaser an idyllic country lifestyle that so many people are searching for in this 'fast changing' world. Located less than an hour to Perth City in a tranquil and picturesque setting, it has stunning views over the coastal plain and the rolling green pastures of the surrounding farmland. The land has a mixture of quality soil types, the majority being rich loamy 'high yielding' soils with some sandier well drained areas to the western boundary. It is gently undulating with a combination of open pastureland ideal for grazing livestock, some beautiful areas on natural bushland with mature trees and some interesting rocky outcrops located at the property's highest point at the rear of the property which is a private sanctuary to all manner of native flora and fauna. There is an abundance of water with large "all year round dam" which is fed by a winter creek when then overflows into the Myara Brook as it winds its way westward. The country homestead is truly a rare find, it is overflowing with rustic character and charm and is constructed of Moore River limestone and solid jarrah which has been sourced from the old Fremantle Wool Stores. Inside the home it has an 'oldy worldly' ambience which is created by the combination of recycled materials including restored fixtures and fittings, doors, stained glass features from the Whitby Falls Coach House and '6 inch' jarrah floorboards from Sir Walter Murdoch's historic South Perth home. A cosy open limestone fireplace in the living areas and Rayburn wood stove in the kitchen add warmth and atmosphere to the lovely home.
