Getting the balance right can be tricky. You want space, peace and tranquillity, birdsong and a bushland setting. But you don't necessarily want to be miles from anywhere.
Welcome to this fabulous family home set on 2.13ha in Mariginiup, just a short drive from all the amenities and services you could wish for.
The current owners built this immaculately maintained property in 1998.
They may have decided to sell, but they'll be taking with them more than 20 years of happy memories in this home, from games of cricket, soccer and volleyball on the lawn, kids' camp-outs under the stars and winter nights in front of the wood fire, to pizza parties and summer pool parties, and walks with the dog in the acres of surrounding bushland.
Zoned Special Rural, this is a special property indeed.
Just look at all the features:
Design: Offering 375sqm of home in total, including four bedrooms, two bathrooms, study/5th bedroom, activity room, double garage, verandah and alfresco. Split-level house design with sunken living room. High ceilings throughout.
Location: Just 5 minutes to supermarkets, petrol stations and speciality stores, and just 15 minutes to Joondalup with its major shopping centre, train station and cinemas. Close to local schools and a school bus provided for free to St Stephen's School Carramar and Wanneroo schools. Off to the airport? It's just 35 minutes away using the new Northlink connection - and there are no traffic lights along the way.
Eco-friendly: A 92,000L rainwater storage tank supplying the house with all the water it needs, including drinking water and water for all appliances. The home also has a 3kW solar power system.
Manicured gardens: There are lush manicured easy-care lawns and beautifully landscaped gardens, all fully reticulated by a powerful 3-phase bore pump with quiet, efficient, high-quality Hunter gear drives so you can go on holiday knowing the watering is taken care of.
Natural bush: The rest of the block is natural bushland with mature trees attracting birds and other wildlife.
Resort-style amenities: Landscaped, heated swimming pool with waterfall, pebble beach and huge area for sun loungers.
Outdoor living: Spectacular outdoor entertaining area with pizza oven, outdoor sink with hot and cold water, benchtop, island bench, space for a bar fridge, ample power points and room for a 10-seater alfresco dining table.
Fruit orchard: Producing avocados, lemons, apples, peaches, grapefruit, oranges and mandarins.
Room for animals: Plenty of space for horses, sheep and chickens.
Potential to expand: This is a good-sized home, but if you need more there's heaps of room to extend.
