A rare and beguiling gem, this home casts its spell well before you arrive at the front door. A long driveway moves through 4.94-acres of natural bush and comes to a stone and timber façade, separate studio, stone wall gardens and outdoor seating area that all appear to emerge from the surrounding landscape, an effect that creates the most pleasing of first impressions.
The magic of this unique property continues inside, where a split-level floorplan features a cosy, carpeted lounge room with a raked timber-lined ceiling, a sunroom with large windows orientated to capture the winter sun and an open plan kitchen/meals area with a handcrafted wooden frame filling the circular opening to the sunroom. These shared living spaces exude an atmosphere of comfort and a palpable sense of 'home'.
Stairs move up and down from the kitchen to the bedrooms and bathrooms. On the ground floor, a stone feature wall lines the staircase and hallway as you move to the northern corner of the plan and the main bedroom. Dual-aspect windows create an uninterrupted link to the landscape, a feeling reinforced by doors leading to a private, paved patio. A large walk-in wardrobe/dressing room and bathroom complete the main suite. Also arranged on the ground floor is a spacious storage room, a good-sized study, a walk-through laundry and a large family bathroom.
Three junior bedrooms occupy the top floor. These timber-floored rooms are designed and orientated to ensure ever-changing tree-top views.
With a setting so beautiful you're unlikely ever to want to leave, this property has plenty to keep you busy outdoors. A luminous studio, powered workshop, shade house and potting shed are waiting for you to explore various creative endeavours. Between the home and the studio, a brick and stone patio with built-in seating offer an idyllic spot for entertaining or quiet contemplation.
Within walking distance of the Heritage Trail and hidden from the world, this jewel of a home is within easy reach of the services and amenities of Mundaring. If you're searching for a home with charm and character, if your heart and soul sing when the beauty of nature surrounds you, this property could be the answer to your dreams.
