In addition to the history and the connection to one of Carmel's pioneering families 18 Carmel Road is also a versatile and practical property package. The original homestead built in 1930's has been beautifully preserved in time showcasing its ornate ceilings, wide Jarrah floors and decorative cornices just to name a few. This wing of the home is totally independent to the later addition and comprises an open plan kitchen, dining and family room, gorgeous formal lounge with feature fireplace, three bedrooms, two bathrooms and study.
The later addition in the 1980s has transformed this home, now two homes in one. The extension has created a fabulous option for a multigenerational family offering an additional three bedrooms, one bathroom and a very spacious living and kitchen area, all with its own separate entrance and carport.
A further separate studio houses another independent living quarters (not approved) featuring a living room and kitchenette, one bedroom and bathroom. If you add it all up that's 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and 4 living areas - not bad hey!
And with so much space internally you need the externals to match and boy does it live up to its expectations, its an absolute stunning 5.65 acre playground of fun, entertainment and natures candy! From the jaw dropping raised gable patio to the pool below, the cutest vegetable garden and a well-loved and nurtured working orchard with a variety of 500 fruit trees, this is one property that will channel your playful inner child and big kid pursuits. A large packing shed, machinery shed, bore plus a staggering 430,000L of water storage is the icing on the cake of this Legacy estate.
