12 Dale Drive, Gooseberry Hill WA 6076

Dreamscape on Dale Drive

Step into a seventies dreamscape and experience time travel, with immaculately preserved original features such as brilliantly coloured glasswork, an accordion inspired spiral staircase, a deeply burgundy bathroom and soaring cruck framing. Whilst this beauty needs some tender loving care, the rock-solid foundation is there for an owner to bring this home back to its full glory. Oh, and the views? Twinkling lights, night flights and sunsets to inspire!

Perched on the hillside of the escarpment, 12 Dale Drive has been with the same family since it was built and has been loved through all the stages of family life. Ready for a new beginning, this home lends itself to reinvention through several key features. Rare to see in Australia, the cruck framing of the home means the entire structural integrity is held within the roofline and internal walls can be moved, making this home incredibly versatile for renovators. Additionally, pay homage to the original style of the home and keep the family bathroom in its entirety – it is in impeccable condition with floor to ceiling rich burgundy tiles, retro feature tiles with poppies and birds, a marbled resin-top vanity and separate toilet with retro patterned tiles.

Split across three levels, the kitchen, family bathroom and two bedrooms are on the ground floor. Stepping down to the slate tiled living area with potbelly fire, here is access to the main bedroom with walk-in robe, ensuite and views with twinkling lights at night. Ascend the accordion-like timber spiral staircase to the upper floor and the flexible open plan space above. This large room features cathedral arch ceilings and sweeping views over the treetops down to the City and airport with potential to be transformed from humble living room to something much more.

Outside, the creek flowing through the property under the handmade bridge and the sloped gardens provide a tranquil escape with potential to uncover the bridge again and create a new playground for both old and young. A modern Colourbond workshop with concrete driveway is great for storage and working on projects. There is also an undercroft space to the house which could be further enclosed and used as storage or incorporated into more elaborate plans.

So time travellers, please delight in the features – the seventies is calling!
