Looking for something you can truly make your own? Been seeing a lot of lovely, new or renovated homes but there's always something(s) you would have done (a lot) differently? If you have a family who values their space, needs a bit of serenity, and you can see the potential in great bones, this property is a treasure waiting for your grand designs. Set in a family-friendly cul de sac, it boasts over a half acre of land, providing endless possibilities for turning your slice of paradise into whatever you please. Let your children's imaginations run wild in this expansive backyard, or turn it into a haven for your resident garden enthusiasts utilising the raised veggie beds, rose garden, and expand on the citrus planting to create an entire food forest. Whatever you decide to do outside, this canvas is ready.
Speaking of readiness, the interior of this home offers so much potential for someone clever who loves it. Perhaps take inspiration from the darling, updated country kitchen; it boasts gleaming Marri benchtops, breakfast bar, loads of storage, and a built-in pantry with pull-out shelving. It simply cannot wait to become the epicentre of family gatherings, good chats, and shared bottomless cups of tea. There's the choice of two large living areas, so all your crew can always find a space to spread out and you can design these spaces to suit your lifestyle (and their requirements!) The main suite has already enjoyed an upgrade with an addition in the '80s of a very smart walk-through dressing room, walk-in closet, and bonus attached study (or nursery). This is the ultimate retreat where you can read, work, unwind, or perhaps get to drafting plans for an ensuite in this space. To start you off, the entire interior has been given a fresh lick of paint and new gutters and a new hot water system have been installed.

While the yard may be calling for a bit of TLC, you only need sit on the large, covered and decked alfresco entertaining area with a couple of your inspired friends or family to come up with ideas. This is a great space to host sparkling soirees under the stars or take your crackers and cheese and just sit with the resident maggies to de-stress. Two garden sheds will hold all the tools you 'need' to tackle all the little jobs and when you need refreshment and re-energising, get yourself down to the Glen Forrest Gourmet for their renowned caramel oat slice and a cappuccino. There's a choice of great schools, some literally around the corner, Midland is only 10 minutes or so down the hill, Mundaring is even less up the hill, and both offer public transport, shopping, entertainment, and good places to eat.
Make your mark.
