Vintage, Solid & Utterly Fabulous
Remember going to Grandma's and the tea just tasted? different? Better? Was it the tea bag? No, it was the magic of Grandma's house! And now, that magic is available for you to move straight into. This absolutely charming retro piece of history has had one owner, yes, ONE owner, since it was built in the 1970s so you know it's filled with love, laughter, and lots of living.
In true '70s style, the split-level design has all the vintage charm you'd expect, with great slate floors, high ceilings, and exposed beams. If you're a real fan, you may just audibly squeal at the built-in bookshelves, touches of exposed brick, funky lights, and solid Jarrah kitchen. And oh, the bathroom. How does a long, hot soak in a mint-green-coloured bath sound? When it's time to invite your own crowd around for tea and bikkies, come Summer, there's the outdoor entertaining area waiting for some fairy lights and lots of good conversation. Nestled right next to the bush reserve, afternoon soirees can turn into evening potluck dinners and when the kids bundle into the lounge room to watch movies, the grown-ups can break out the 'good' wine and not be too worried about bothering the neighbours.

If you're a fan of walk trails, you're going to love the Mountain Quarry, in the beautiful Greenmount National Park - you can walk to it with an easy 15 minute stroll or try to find the hidden waterfalls including the iconic Nyaania Creek nearby. If mountain biking is your thing, you're in luck with the Goat Farm just up towards the highway. Midland is a quick 6 minute drive away, complete with train and bus station, local eateries, and the cinema. Boya really is an incredible spot in the Hills and this throwback to a simpler time will fill you with nostalgia while providing you a great home base for all your future adventures.
It's time to go to Grandma's!

Boya overview
To supply the stone required to build the groynes at Fremantle Harbour, a Government quarry was established in the hills a little south-west of Darlington. A spur line was run into the quarry from the existing railway and, by July 1901, dozens of iron and hessian huts housing approximately 150 workmen were clustered near the site. In August of 1901, construction began on a railway siding for the use of this settlement and the first name proposed was "Yan-Yeen". This was rejected because of a duplication in Victoria and the Aboriginal word "Boya", appropriately meaning rock/stone, was chosen instead. It was later found that the correct Aboriginal name for the area was "Nyeedoup" but Boya remains appropriate as the Aboriginal sub-tribe who once inhabited the hills were known as "Boya-Ngoora".
