Last Listing description (July 2012)
YOU WONT EXPECT THIS!
When winding your way up the blissfully shady driveway, surrounded on either side by gumtrees, and rolling paddocks with quality fencing, you happen across a quaint and unassuming homestead that is consistent with the style of its day, wood clad, peaked roofs and big windows and completely unpretentious and warmed by over 40 years of life as a hobby farm homestead.
What you don't expect however is to step inside and discover a fully renovated, beautifully executed family home that would be a lovely setting for any young family.
The place has been a labour of love for the owners, especially when it came to remedying the decor faux pas of previous generations; absolutely stunning jarrah floorboards that had been covered up by 80's lino are now back in the limelight, beautifully polished and a gorgeous base for the modern new decor that has been added.
Stepping inside the tradesman's entrance which is shaded by a newly built carport you step immediately into a spacious lounge area, with down lighting, reverse cycle air conditioning and beautiful blue tones.
Jarrah once again features on the unique servery come breakfast bar which looks through into the recently kitchen. A modern gas oven and stave are surrounded by crisp white cabinets, an overhead unit, and sleek stainless steel handles and a double fridge nook.
An archway leads through to the homely dining room, with the jarrah flooring complimented by earthy timber venetian blinds and rich wall tones to make for a pleasant environment.
The main hallway introduces the homes three double bedrooms, two of which have been fully renovated with new plaster, modern tones and new carpet, and the third, the huge master bedroom which is just about to get the start treatment as the last hurdle before the home is completely finished and looking schmick.
The renovated bathroom features a modern gloss white vanity and a good little bit of chrome which complements the bath over shower.
The fully renovated laundry has been made up to feature cabinets identical to the kitchen, as well as heaps of storage, and is backed up with a walk through storage area to keep the clutter out of sight.
Family safety is paramount, with RCDS and hard wired smoke alarms newly installed throughout the entire home, and there's also insulation, new roofing and a blissfully homely wood fire for comfort.
It seems that everywhere you go in the home, you are able to capture the stunning outlook over the acreage that surrounds the home, 35 acres to be exact, all with quality fencing (some electric) a hearty dam which has never been dry, 100,000 litres of water storage and the perfect amount of space to hold your stock, pets, or those toys that are right at home in the generous space of a hobby farm.
To service it all, and for the man of the house, the 20x30 metre powered shed is the icing on the cake, with workshop, mezzanine, concrete flooring and double doors on two sides of the shed.
The homestead yard is perfectly kitted out for a young family, with a large sandpit, apricot trees, paving al fresco area and enough room for the little ones to safely run free and burn that youthful energy.
In a perfect community, with wonderful neighbours and far enough from a main raid to avoid road noise and dust- it's a haven, and the perfect environment in which to nurture a growing family.
