There's simply no single position in the Serpentine scarp available, quite like this parcel - known as 'The Top Block' given it's prime elevation and being the largest single lot comprising of over 11 acres of gently sloping landscape within the exclusive and historic 'Eton Hills' lifestyle estate.

This tightly held piece of sanctuary has been cherished since the McKay's first relinquished this special location in 1978 with just 2 proud owners since. When you have the pleasure of having your own feet planted firmly atop this hillside, you'll be instantly captivated and see why…

THE RESIDENCE:
Commanding the perfect position, this generously family-sized home is warm and inviting with a presence that modestly complements the surrounding landscape and breath-taking views from every possible aspect. The Perth City skyline is even framed from the window at the kitchen sink!

The home is configured to a lineal orientation along the scarp's edge, meaning each bedroom boasts a picture-framed outlook from the windows as well as being spacious for growing families. Stunning solid jarrah timber floors and soaring raked timber ceilings in the main living areas, offer a nod to the raw natural landscape surrounds.

Winters spent watching the rain showers sweeping over the flats, sitting by one of the fireplaces indoors - which includes a wood burning stove, or even outdoors by the potbelly under the extensive patio which can be enclosed to the elements via feature French doors and outdoor roller blinds.

• 4 Bedrooms - each with beautiful views, the Master Suite complete with ensuite bathroom, walk-in-robe + glass sliding door access to the verandah.
• 2 Bathrooms - the Main Bathroom has had a gorgeous complete renovation featuring floor to ceiling tiles, free-standing clawfoot bath tub.
• Kitchen - galley style with a framed opening connecting to the family lounge room, boasting incredible views of the valley and Perth city from the sink, free-standing oven/cooker and wood-burning stove.
• Separate office/study could be used as a 5th bedroom
• Patio in the Clouds - stretching the full width of the dwelling, this outdoor living space is truly an extension of the main abode and is equipped for year-round enjoyment with blinds, one end enclosable with feature French doors and a spa, a potbelly fireplace - and did we mention the VIEWS from up here in the sky!?

THE TOP BLOCK:
Where else will you find genuine, sweeping 360 degree panoramic views over the coastal plain below to the Indian Ocean, and north west to the Perth city skyline shimmering bursts of light like beacons bouncing off the glass of skyscrapers reflecting the setting sun. A steep valley rolls behind adding depth to the perspective as seasons change...

Spanning 11.02 acres of hilltop - where surprisingly gentle gradient and relatively flat land offers plenty of winter feed which shoots through to feed the family flock of sheep for most of the year. If it's horses you fancy, there's certainly scope and space for paddocks and a sensational spot to ride-out from the property!

Water sources and safety are paramount in the hills - both of which are suitably attended to here on the Top Block. Scheme water is supplied at the gate but has never been used beyond, due to the rainwater capacity and grey water being used around the gardens. Several tanks supply the residence and a ring-main surrounds the property operated from 2 x petrol pumps for fire suppression.

• 11.02 Acres / 4.4629 Hectares / 44,629 Sqm - Flat hilltop with gentle gradient, some quartz above loamy soils producing great winter feed, with 2 paddocks separated.
• Scheme water + Rainwater Tanks 50,000L x 2 and header tank gravity feeding.
• Access via bottom of McKay Drive with bitumen sealed to concrete driveway up to the crest.

THE EXTERIOR IMPROVEMENTS:
Acreage ain't complete without some fair dinkum shedding and storage capacity, and the Top Block certainly doesn't let us down there either.
• The 12m x 12m Workshop has 3-Phase power, two roller doors and an aircon unit. Another huge bonus is the secure locked room and lean-to's providing heaps of extra parking space for trailers and vans.
• The recent addition of a Donga has proven super accommodating for guests or extended family visits, with it's own self-contained kitchen, bathroom and living area - not to mention the views from the extended verandah!

CONVERSATION POINT:
Who doesn't like to throw around some good ideas!? In 1998 there was an approved planning application for 4 x chalets to be used for weekend stays/accommodation - and what a location to share.
Of course everything is STCA but it's an interesting concept worthy of more consideration.

THE NEXT MOVE is YOURS - there's no question that what's on offer here is a prime piece of the scarp, an incredible privilege to relish in the landscapes, the history and the wildlife of this significantly unique location.

Viewings and further information are available and certainly encouraged - by private appointment only.
