If you've been house hunting for a while but every time you come across something *almost* perfect you end up figuring out everything you're going to renovate, remodel, change, pull apart, start from scratch… and then you end up backing away, sighing. You don't want an empty block of land and the associated headaches with building envelopes and all that jazz, but you also don't want anything that's already been finished inside. And hardly anyone sells just the bare (good) bones of their home. Until now - where you can snaffle this future-gorgeous house in a truly wonderful suburb and not even have to worry about renting while you renovate, because there's a delicious little self-contained flat, ready for you to move straight in.
The plans are already approved for extension and renovation of this little pearler, and the structural designs are complete, so you won't have to fuss with the council or wait to get started. Eventually, you'll be living in a 3x3 wonder with sparkling pool, detached home gym/games room with its own bathroom and the bonus flat above the double garage can be used for visiting friends and family or to foster some independence for growing young adults. The home is blessed with a private, quiet, secluded location on a lovely and level half-acre block.
Features Include:
Solid house, mostly gutted, ready for renovation plus self-contained flat
Plans approved for extension & renovation (structural designs complete)
1974 built brick & tile home
3 bedrooms
2 bathrooms
Lounge & dining area
Separate kitchen (fully gutted ready for renovation)

The added bonus? You're a Darlingtonite, now. The locals call this 'The Village' because it has a community vibe unlike any other spot in the Hills. You're a 3 minute drive to Darlington Primary and the Darlington Oval (with sporting clubs and the choice of 2 fabulous cafes!), plus walk trails and High School. Head the other way for a couple of minutes and reach the gates to Darlington Winery, where many a weekend hour can be enjoyed with friends.
Rare opportunity calls.

The name "Darlington" is derived from adding the English suffix "ton", meaning "town" to the name of the range in the area - Darling Range which was first named "General Darling Range". The name was first used by Dr Alfred Waylen who established the "Darlington Vineyard" here in 1883-4.
Darlington remains one of the few locations in the Perth hills with an early 20th century village ambience. It is known for its vibrant community with seemingly as many committees and groups as it has residents. The suburb has a local general store however residents rely on the the facilities at Midland and Mundaring which are close by. There are also various primary and secondary schools in the area.
