High on the hill where you can see the horizon, is this massive resort style, family home looking for its new family! This incredibly spacious home started as a modest 3x1 and is now a massive 6 x 3, perfect for large, growing families. There is so much space you'll be able to escape at any time, or all come together. Its a place for family and extended family, visitors, parties and gatherings and its ready for you to move in right now!
There are so many ways to use this home from one big home to two separate areas for extended families, it is the solution for so many arrangements. You can set up a two bed apartment upstairs with a simple conversion of the bar and two families could be very happy here.
When you first walk down the driveway the house sits majestically above you, yet feels calm and private. The first thing you notice is the stunning pool area and the glass foyer. Here you'll walk into a large, airy entry with a wall of glass looking out to the tropical pool in front of the house, the perfect place to greet guests in style. From here, there are rooms branching off, the first being the original lounge, now the perfect place for a study. It could also be a guest bedroom, another sitting room, a teen's retreat or kids playroom, so many options. or you can walk into the central kitchen that overlooks the dining. The use of wood here keeps the character of the original home and creates a warm, friendly, family vibe. There's heaps of storage and bench space and room for an Island if you like.
The dining space is also a large area with raked ceilings and another door to the carports. This then flows through French doors to a tranquil Hamptons style lounge, again surrounded with glass letting in light, breeze and with a view over the garden. This room is just a pleasure to sit in. You'll find yourself here with a coffee or a wine all year 'round.
The left wing of the ground floor has four bedrooms, two double and two single with the original family bath. The front bedroom has a wall of built in robes and a view over the pool including its own entrance to this area. The rear bedroom the other double. Its a lovely light and bright room with a beautifully designed, large ensuite and again, a wall of built in robes. The two bedrooms in the middle are comfortable singles, one with a built in cupboard, desk and shelving. The original bathroom has been maintained and upgraded but still has loads of character and at the end of the corridor is a quirky laundry leading to the back yard.
Upstairs you enter into another spacious, living zone. This makes a great retreat, either for the parents or the teens depending on who gets the top floor!
There are two large bedrooms upstairs, a palatial master bedroom with walk in robe and semi ensuite bathroom. Facing north, this room is always light and bright with doors out to the bacony overlooking the pool. The second bedroom is a large room, also with lots of natural light and a magnificent view of the ocean.
There's a small kitchenette upstairs that could be converted into a second kitchen if you wanted to separate this space. Right now it makes a fabulous bar where you can mix your cocktails before sitting on the balcony to watch the sunset.
And here is the bonus to this amazing home, this fabulous balcony that goes the whole length of the house, and ends up facing West, where you have virtually 180 degree views of the sea.
Some glorious sunsets have been witnessed here, just sit back, face the water and watch the sky change its colours while sipping a Margarita - yes you'll feel like you're in a resort all right!
Out the front of the home is a tropical oasis for you to enjoy all year 'round. This is north facing and would have lovely sunshine all day helping to keep the water warm for longer all year. This area is surrounded by a high brick wall giving you privacy to enjoy in peace. There is a full sized bar and gazebo the perfect entertaining area.
And that's not all, Out the back of the house is a lovely pergola to sit and enjoy a quiet evening meal, or a coffee in the morning and a soft patch of grass for dogs and children to play. Beside this is a huge garage or workshop to turn into your own man or lady cave and a long driveway with enough room to keep two cars out of the weather.
Imagine coming home to your own spacious paradise every day. The owners tell me their visitors reckon it's a resort!
And the location is fantastic, a short bike ride or drive to South Beach. You could even walk. The primary school is just around the corner. Close to public transport and shops. Only ten minutes to Fremantle. All in a quiet cul de sac!
Yes, this is the life and you now have the opportunity to enjoy it too. Come and see if the resort lifestyle is for your family!
