Last Listing description (September 2019)
Located only 10 minutes drive from Denmark in the tranquil suburb of Youngs Siding, this 18.24 ha (45 acre) lifestyle property shares a boundary with the vibrant Wilson Inlet - known to be a favourite nesting site of the iconic Black Swan and many other indigenous waterbirds.
Renowned for its exceptional biodiversity and beauty, the Wilson Inlet is also home to a great range of fauna and flora, making it a real hotspot for nature lovers and conservationists.
This is the ideal property for someone who wants 8 acres to play with while having direct access to the Wilson Inlet off their protected land.
15.0012 ha (approximately 37.9 acres) of the natural bushland bordering the Wilson Inlet is protected under a Caveat by The National Trust of Australia. This ensures the land remains cared for and protected for future generations to enjoy in an eco-friendly way. A hotspot position like this needs careful consideration and hopefully the type of buyer interested in this kind of property will be of equal mind. Its not just the birds and the bees thats important here - the incredible diversity of native orchids and wild flowers in season (February to October) attracts an enormous amount of delighted attention to the area.
One neighbour separates this property from Millionaires Mile - Hay River frontage, but dont despair you can easily carry your kayak to the Hay Bridge and paddle all the way to Ocean Beach or just launch from your back boundary. Theres a small stretch of Crown land between this propertys back boundary and the inlet in keeping with properties on waterfronts in WA.
You can walk down a sandy firebreak or use a 4x4 to get to the back boundary with ease.
3.2378 ha or 8 acres around the home are set aside as the building envelope, which is a fair amount of space for someone who would like to keep a horse or two, some chooks and a vege garden. The current Hardi-board home is set further forward on the bush block, though still well back from South Coast Highway. A long driveway leads you up to the home, forming a neat turning circle.
The house itself is a very neat 4x2 + study/games room/studio or 5th bedroom off the back verandah. The front is north-facing with a wide verandah while the back verandah looks out over a securely enclosed backyard and tranquil bush.
Large windows and glass panel doors ensure that the home is light and bright. A hearty tile fire can be found in the open plan area, which effortlessly keeps the home cosy in the cooler months or use the reverse cycle air-conditioning in the dining area to maintain the ideal temperature. A glass sliding door to the back deck is on the far wall past the kitchen, with deep linen cupboards just to the left for all your storage needs.
The open plan design makes the home feel modern and spacious; the kitchen is well equipped with a built-in electric oven, a gas cook-top, island bench, dishwasher and plenty of cupboard and bench space to suit a sizable family.
The lounge is a good-sized room which leads off to the right of the kitchen and dining area; it also features large windows and the same wood look-alike vinyl floors as the other living areas.
The discreetly positioned master bedroom are accessed via the open plan area and features a good size walk-in robe plus a tiled en-suite bathroom consisting of a large shower, toilet and basin.
A corridor on the far side of the kitchen leads to the other 3 bedrooms, second bathroom and laundry. The laundry is neatly tiled with direct access to the backyard and washing line. It comes well equipped with a deep wash trough and plenty of room for both a washing machine and dryer. A separate toilet is just left of the laundry.
The family bathroom is all white and neutral in the same style as the en-suite, featuring a shower-over-bath, basin and large mirror.
The three bedrooms contained within this wing are neatly carpeted with freshly painted white walls and large windows. They are all double sized rooms and have tranquil views over the front or back verandahs.
A large shed, doubling as a 2-car garage plus storage is located to the left of the house, with raised vegetable gardens and a large water tank on either side of the home providing ample water for all your needs.
The protected 37 acres behind the building envelope belongs to this property so its yours to enjoy on a daily basis, but no buildings will be allowed in the eco sensitive area.
