FOREST KINGDOM

SOLD

Claim your kingdom and an exceptional lifestyle with a multi-generational home set on a spectacular 18.8 acres brimming with native flora and fauna. From the whimsey of a wide front door inset with coloured glass panels to the great room with soaring ceilings and cathedral windows, the design and presentation of this home is extraordinary.

The split level, two-storey structure sits lightly at the site's highest point and follows its gently sloping topography to deliver breathtaking views from every room. Rammed earth interior walls, an imposing limestone fireplace and clay floor tiles echo the colours and textures of this spectacular, secluded location. An exceptional outdoor 'room' heightens the home's connection to its landscape by using full-height screens, a pitched ceiling and a timber floor to fashion a seamless transition to the lawn terrace and lap pool.

A high clearance workshop offers 172 sqm of storage and workspace with room for a vehicle hoist and loft storage. A separate machinery shed with drive-in access and a remote entry garage expand the amenity and sense of a self-contained lifestyle delivered by this property.

Designed by the original owner as a family home with B & B accommodation, the floorplan reflects this intention with separate 'guest' and 'family' wings arranged on either side of communal spaces. Open, light-filled interiors bring an energising sense of freedom to the central living zone; this flexible shared space – a series of generous rooms designed to ring with love, laughter and the hustle and bustle of life.

The family wing offers quiet, cossetting accommodation with solid timber floors, painted walls and sisal carpets. Panoramic windows and a private deck give the parents' retreat the feeling of a private eyrie, a treetop hideaway with views across the surrounding landscape. The guest wing comprises three oversized ensuite bedrooms with rammed earth walls, tiled floors and private decks.

A sense of occasion descends the instant you turn into this property. As you travel along the sealed driveway through a landscape of eucalypts, zamias palms and grass trees, the worries of the world recede to be replaced by the powerful beauty and seclusion of your realm.

Mundaring overview

Permanent settlement in Mundaring began in 1882-84 when Mr Peter Gugeri established a vineyard south of the Eastern Railway. The first railway siding at Mundaring was named after him and for some years the area was generally known as "Gugeris". A later settler, M H Jacoby, took over Gugeris' vineyards in 1893, and named the business the "Mundaring Vineyard Company". The name came from an Aboriginal camp situated nearby and the meaning given to Jacoby by the aborigines was "a high place on a high place". The correct pronunciation was "Mundahring" but common usage has gradually converted this to "Mundairing".

Life in Mundaring

Known as the heart of the Perth hills, Mundaring is located on the eastern edge of the Perth Hills.
