Luxury Character Home Brimming with Possibilities

Step back in time and explore a world of possibilities at magnificent Hartung House, Mundaring. The stunning turn-of-the-century residence presents various exciting options, from a sprawling and luxuriously appointed family home, to mixed-use purposes including commercial suites and short-stay accommodation potential.

The original weatherboard and iron Federation home, built in 1905, is surrounded by sweeping wraparound verandas with charming white timber balustrading. At the entrance, find spacious formal reception and dining rooms with soaring 3.5metre ceilings, wood fireplaces and original Jarrah floorboards, with French doors from each room opening onto the veranda. Timber door and window frames, picture rails and high skirting boards are additional hallmarks of a bygone era.

Further in, overlooking the dining room, the luxurious kitchen features soft grey shaker-style cabinetry, an island bench with a stone top and integrated dishwasher, Smeg cooking appliances, a walk-in pantry and a white subway-tiled splashback. A beautifully appointed guest suite with a fireplace and private ensuite, a smaller bedroom/office and a powder room comprise the remainder of the original dwelling.

A complete renovation was undertaken in 2017, seamlessly connecting the original home with the magnificent 1990s extension. The sloping 2,115sqm block allowed for an extensive double-storey addition that includes three luxury bedroom suites on the upper level (each complete with a private ensuite and walk-in robe) and a fully self-contained 'apartment' with a separate entrance on the lower level.

Here, you'll find a second full-sized kitchen, two further bedrooms, a contemporary semi-ensuite bathroom, second laundry and plenty of storage. This independent downstairs area lends itself perfectly to multi-generational living arrangements - perfect for older parents or adult children - or as a short-stay accommodation income stream.

Outside, towering established trees, including wattle, eucalypt and jarrah, dot the sprawling rear gardens. There's a fire pit area for evening storytelling and roasting marshmallows, and twin freestanding slipper baths beneath the veranda for the ultimate outdoor indulgence. A charming pavilion provides an ideal shaded spot for alfresco dining at any time of day. The front gardens are equally delightful, featuring a white picket fence, recycled brick paving, a water feature and welcoming festoon lighting leading from the front gate to the house and across the veranda.

This magnificent and historically significant property previously operated as an art gallery (Braun Gallery), a teahouse and most recently, using the front two rooms for a beauty salon. Utilise the entire property as your family home, or run a business from the front while you occupy the rear. Opportunities for short-stay accommodation are also worth considering.

Enjoy the best of both worlds - a magnificent character home that feels a thousand miles away yet located on the doorstep of every imaginable amenity, including shops, schools and transport.
