The transformation of what was a simple property into a chic family home is an impressive achievement. The current owners of this 4-bedroom brick and tile residence have created a home where original materials and features shine and carefully considered renovations bring modern practicality.
The front door opens to reveal rich, jewel-toned jarrah floors, door and window-frames. An iconic 70s fireplace – fitted with a slow combustion fire – takes centre stage in the open plan family/kitchen/meals area. A pitched ceiling, modern pendant lights, and polished kitchen fashion a delightfully cohesive space in which the original structure's integrity underlines a contemporary, family-friendly zone.
The kitchen features white overhead cabinetry, a thick stone benchtop with integrated breakfast bar and charcoal-grey under bench storage. A five-burner hob, wall oven and integrated dishwasher will delight the most passionate of cooks. A barn-hung door opens to reveal a spacious, fitted butler's pantry – a smart inclusion that provides food and appliance storage, room for a family-sized fridge and an additional prep area away from the central living space.
This home makes it impossible to resist the lure of an indoor-outdoor lifestyle with a central living area that links to a large, sheltered deck overlooking the surrounding landscape. A wide boardwalk connects the home to the quintessential 'outdoor room' evoking thoughts of a luxury resort; this breathtaking space features a high gabled roof, space for seating and dining and a treetop setting.
Arranged along a central hallway are three junior bedrooms, each with jarrah floors and one with built-in robes, a chic, family bathroom with shower, vanity and Roman bath. A separate W.C. is arranged off the well-appointed, walk-through laundry.
Tucked away at the eastern end of the home is a private, split-level principal suite, comprising a bedroom with fitted built-in robes and a delightful, modern ensuite with shower, W.C. and double vanity. Jarrah floors, reverse cycle air-conditioning, and an overhead fan fashion a peaceful parents' retreat. A separate entry from the front verandah underlines the sense of privacy.
At the top of the 4381 sqm block is a newly constructed, powered workshop with a skillion roof and two roller doors. This 6 m x 9 m partitioned workspace has drive-in access and is separated from the home by a series of low-maintenance gardens and a no-mow lawn.
Glen Forrest epitomizes the best of Hills' living with a glorious natural landscape, choice of schools and easy access to the bustling Mundaring Village, Midland and beyond. This 1977-built brick and tile home radiates style and modern ease thanks to a considered renovation and the addition of a resort-worthy outdoor entertaining area and powered Colorbond shed.
