16 View Street, Albany WA 6330

This spectacular property is truly something to behold. The views take your breath away!

Offering a full 180 degree view from Mount Adelaide to Bald Head, and from Princess Royal Harbour to the Wind Farm. Nestled in the foothills of Mount Melville's southwest rocky slopes, it offers you something truly magnificent.

The abundance of windows is a standout feature that allows plenty of natural light in, and views from all angles. Positioned on a very quiet street, and perched on beautiful Albany granite boulders, the original 1978 house was redesigned, extended, and renovated in 2007 into the amazing, iconic home that it is today!

Whilst positioned on the south-facing Mount Melville slopes you are still lucky enough to enjoy lots of beautiful northern light. The home is split across three levels and has been designed to capture the views from every angle.

Most of the action is on the middle level. The kitchen, dining, and living areas abound with glass, and feature high coffered ceilings, plush carpet, and great lighting, making this large space warm and inviting; great for hosting guests.

The kitchen is grand in size and design, offering ample bench and cupboard space, stone tops, double-glazed windows, and a spectacular view. A large fridge recess, pantry, and appliance cupboard finish off the space nicely. A European-style laundry is positioned adjacent to the kitchen.

The large lounge room offers plenty of sitting space when entertaining and has access to the balcony and deck on the Northern side.

The dining area is spacious enough to support any size dining suite and the sliding door leads from here out onto the Eastern side of the balcony. You can hide away at this end of the wrap-around balcony; out of the breeze behind some smart glass panelling.

Also on the middle level, is the sun-filled family and games room large enough to house a billiard table, it enjoys beautiful warm northern light streaming in. This area is just made for entertaining and family time whilst enjoying the breathtaking backdrop at every turn.

The deck is positioned off the main living area and is encased by Luxaflex Evo MagnaTrack awnings which are electric remote-operated, just to make life that little bit easier, and for all year-round enjoyment.

The secondary bedrooms are also found on this level and provide a fantastic guest suite with an ensuite, plus bedrooms 2 and 3. All have built-in robes and a nice outlook to the rocks of Mount Melville. A third original bathroom is also positioned here.

Upstairs you are welcomed into a large open-plan parents' retreat where the view just continues to get better! This large space is very versatile with French doors through to a king-size master where you would likely choose to never put the Roman blinds down and just enjoy the vista. You may also choose to take advantage of the small balcony. The walk-through robe is positioned behind the master bed, and gives access through to the newly renovated ensuite with walk-in shower and separate toilet.

Behind the parent's retreat is a huge sewing room plus 5th bedroom or utilities room. This room and the sewing room also have a beautiful North facing tiled balcony, which does have independent external stair access.

The ground level of the home is the original footprint, where you get to truly enjoy how the home was constructed over these amazing granite boulders. The entrance staircase winds up around the face of the boulder in a truly unique style. These rooms (whilst once originally a garage and could be easily reconverted back) offer further living space that would be great for a library or sitting room, gymnasium, home office or potential guest house conversion.

The central staircase from here leads up to the main living area and passes a cellar tucked into the rock construction allowing for your wine collection to be perfectly kept. The stairwell also features beautiful Albany granite construction.

There are two access points from View Street creating a loop and providing much flexibility. The sealed driveway runs past a single garage with 2.6m clearance, plus the freestanding second garage/workshop with level hardstand in between. Carefully planned landscaping cascades over and through the granite boulders throughout the yard.

Overall, this home is something truly to behold, the breathtaking views will never tire. It really is a showcase that displays the best of Albany's spectacular coastline.
