On entering the main home you will be warmly greeted by a light foyer, to the left is a bedroom with beautiful garden views. To the right you will find the newly renovated laundry and bathroom complete with white cabinetry and lovely stone bench tops.
Through the hallway you will be drawn to the spectacular views seen through the large picture windows from the open plan living, meals and kitchen area giving it a ski lodge feeling. The kitchen reflects another nod to mid-century modern design with graphic use of black and white. New black stone bench tops and repolished wandu flooring highlight the owner’s eye for detail and their meticulous manner. The kitchen has a new dishwasher, a built in Miele coffee machine, built in microwave, a large walk in pantry and a door leading out to the breakfast deck.
The eastern wing of the home houses the adults retreat, third bedroom and the second refurbished bathroom. The adults retreat is spectacular in itself. Double aspect windows with valley views and a door leading out to a secluded courtyard where you can experience magical early mornings which define the soft hill views of Darlington, Gooseberry Hill National Park and Helena Valley.
Extended decking around the main home, the lodge, office and studio provide a pavilion experience that encourages living, working and creating to the whisper of gum leaves and the glorious, golden Perth sunsets. Enjoy a quiet drink on the sundowner deck and celebrate all your special occasions with family and friends with lots of fun and laughter on the entertainment deck.
Life truly merges with nature in this low maintenance landscaped garden. Native trees and shrubs together with introduced flora attract beneficial insects and pollinators. Birds are delighted with the secret gardens. Gentle stone pathways guide your exploration to fruit trees, seating areas, a Japanese garden and secluded areas to just sit and be. Extending from the main home granite rock formations define the ancient land providing a unique place to practise early morning yoga or watch the sunset over the city with your someone special.
The large, powered workshop allows a space for those who like to tinker. Adjoining either side of the workshop are his and hers studio spaces. Complete with power, lighting, TV and computer capabilities. An ideal space to work from home, artists space, man cave or teenage retreat. The lodge is a special space ideal for a guest with one bedroom and one bathroom. This could also provide extra income (STSA).
Private and secluded yet this property is close to amenities, walking distance to local shops and Boya library. The heritage railway trail allows biking and hiking. The city is 30 minutes, close to the airport and restaurants from the Swan Valley to the Bickley Valley.
From walking through the gate entrance to resting on the front decking rails, this is a unique and beautiful home that will pull on the heart strings of many.

Boya overview
To supply the stone required to build the groynes at Fremantle Harbour, a Government quarry was established in the hills a little south-west of Darlington. A spur line was run into the quarry from the existing railway and, by July 1901, dozens of iron and hessian huts housing approximately 150 workmen were clustered near the site. In August of 1901, construction began on a railway siding for the use of this settlement and the first name proposed was "Yan-Yeen". This was rejected because of a duplication in Victoria and the Aboriginal word "Boya", appropriately meaning rock/stone, was chosen instead. It was later found that the correct Aboriginal name for the area was "Nyeedoup" but Boya remains appropriate as the Aboriginal sub-tribe who once inhabited the hills were known as "Boya-Ngoora".
