168 Connell Avenue, Martin WA 6110

With two sides bordering the Darling Ranges National Park (now Banyowla Regional Park) it may be another 15 years before a block like this is available again! Take bush walks directly from the east or south sides of your backyard and watch the sunset from your elevated decking while local kangaroos and birds wander across the property. A secluded bush home that's only 30 minutes from Perth & 5 minutes from the shops.

This large 1.5-acre property offers the perfect blend of bush lifestyle and city convenience. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat surrounded by native plants and wildlife or looking to save on rent while building your dream home with stunning views, this block provides both options.

The existing 1950s-character home, updated over the years, boasts a distinctive layout with two comfortable living spaces. However, flexibility and potential is at the core of this property as it offers enough room to build another two-story home, where you'll enjoy exceptional, uninterrupted views that will never be built out. Subject to council approval, you could live in the existing home during construction (saving you rent), with the possibility of retaining the original house, or part of it, as a granny flat or studio once your new dream home is completed.

While waiting to create your dream bush home, the existing house will keep you comfortable! The large main bedroom offers gorgeous views of trees and sunsets, while the second bedroom is currently used as a spacious walk-in robe, conveniently located near the bathroom and toilet. The other half of the home offers flexibility, with the potential to create an additional bedroom or even a separate kids' wing, complete with plenty of room for games and toys.

The modern kitchen, renovated about 10 years ago, features a wide oven, ample cupboard and bench space, and currently hosts a plumbed fridge. There is also a charming brick fireplace that could be restored for cosy winter nights. With ample storage space and study nooks, this home could be perfect for those who work from home or simply need extra room.

A shady garden near the front door adds charm and is frequently visited by kangaroos, quendas, and native birds, creating a serene, wildlife-filled atmosphere. Towards the back of the property, a large deck offers the perfect spot for enjoying sunset dinners (see photos) with stunning views of the Perth city lights.

This property is truly a rare find, opportunities like this - combining space and bush tranquility, with proximity to the city - are hard to come by.
