Desirable Glen Forrest
The charm of a Cape Cod façade elevated behind a broad stone patio is the first hint of the delightful character displayed across this property. Entry to the home is via a light-filled, tile floor foyer with a formal living room to one side and a spacious home office to the other. A deep, north-facing bay window and new, neutral-toned carpets ensure the formal living area is filled with natural light and a sense of unfussy comfort.
The entryway continues towards the rear of the floorplan, past a powder room and walk-through laundry, and arrives at a country kitchen/meals area and an adjoining family room. White timber cabinets, honey-toned timber benchtops and a stand-out 900 mm Falcon oven balance modern chic with country charm. A central island with an integrated breakfast bar and a double Belfast sink complete this utterly charming space.
In the adjoining family room, exposed beams, stucco walls and a gabled ceiling bring a rustic, ‘cabin in the woods’ feeling. A span of windows and sliding glass door link this flexible living space to a breathtaking Toodyay stone patio, sheltered by a high gable roof and elevated for views of distant treetops, paths meander through stone wall gardens to various hidden nooks with seating.
Stairs lead from the foyer to a second storey landing where an alcove fitted with a bench seat suggests this as the ideal space for a cosy reading nook or small upstairs lounge. Three junior bedrooms and the principal suite are accessed via this landing. Wooden shutters, gabled windows, and a timber-lined ‘secret room’ build on the fairy tale atmosphere. A family bathroom shared by the junior rooms includes a bathtub, vanity, shower and WC.
The delightful parents’ retreat is separated from the junior bedrooms by the central landing. It boasts a deep gable window with a built-in workstation and a northerly aspect offering views of the garden. An arching window above the bed echoes the entry to a walk-in robe with an adjoining dressing room and an ensuite with vanity, shower, and WC.
This bewitching property is a rare find with charm, family-friendly credentials, and an iconic Hills setting that delivers excellent access to schools, shops, and transport links. Prepare to be spellbound.
