A brand spanking new modern kitchen is one of the highlights of this lovely home. Fitted with grey stone benchtops, flawless white cabinetry, gloss splashback tiles, an electric oven and cooktop, and double built-in pantry, this exceptional renovation has created a stylish entertaining hub. The open plan kitchen and family room make a pleasant, relaxing space where the whole family can hang out. There are fans throughout the house plus a reverse cycle air-conditioner in the family room to keep everyone comfortable.
On chilly evenings you can snuggle up in the spacious lounge room in front of the slow combustion fire in its brick hearth. Warm timber-lined ceilings, soft carpet, Roman blinds and a Jarrah-look entertainment unit along one wall add to the comfort of this room, which includes a dining area surrounded by windows with a tranquil bush outlook. The alfresco entertaining patio, part of the home s wrap-around verandah, shares this peaceful bush vista and is a wonderful spot for a relaxing weekend BBQ with friends.
This relatively simple home feels anything but small. It has ample storage, spacious living areas and generous bedrooms with a large walk-in robe in the master and double built-in robes in the two junior rooms. The family bathroom has a bath, shower and vanity and a separate toilet in the walk-through laundry.
Of the three rainwater tanks, there is an approximately 100,000L tank supplying the house, another smaller tank for the vegetable patch and a dedicated fire protection tank connected to the rooftop copper pipe sprinkler system, powered by a petrol pump. There is plenty of room to store tools and dabble in projects in the shed and well-appointed workshop, which are fitted with a roller and personal access doors, built-in workbenches and efficient storage options. There is ample parking for vehicles, trailers and more, plus a circular driveway for easy access.
If you have a green thumb, you will love the permaculture-inspired vegetable patch that incorporates a well-fenced, two-yard chook pen and house, an orchard of fruit trees and an aquaponics system with two grow beds and a fish tank.
Joining directly onto the Railway Reserve Historic Trail and bridle path you can tramp far and wide or easily walk to Sawyers Valley town site and the excellent Sawyers Valley Primary School. Mundaring is just minutes away and Midland, the Swan Valley and airports are all within an easy commute.
This is just the kind of lifestyle property people move to the Hills for, it combines convenient seclusion with simple beauty.
