There are some properties that I can describe to you purely as a real estate agent. This isn't one of them.
For two years, my husband and I searched Homestead Ridge looking for a genuinely BIG family home.
We loved the area, the large blocks, established trees and lifestyle — but finding a truly substantial home here was incredibly difficult.
Most of Homestead Ridge was established through the late 1980s and early 1990s, and many homes throughout the estate offer around 180–200sqm of living. Eventually, we discovered that within this pocket of approximately 250 homes, only around 17 have more than 300sqm of living space.
We bought one of them.
So when I tell you that 33 Silversmith Street is a rare commodity in Homestead Ridge, I'm not simply writing marketing copy. I personally spent two years trying to find a home like this.
And at approximately 322sqm of living on an enormous 2,304sqm block, this one certainly delivers.
Built in 1988 and held by the same family ever since, there's something quite special about walking through this home. Much of it remains original, but with that comes beautiful materials, generous proportions and the kind of space that's increasingly difficult to replicate.
The Jarrah flooring, staircase and banister are beautiful. The bedrooms are genuinely large. The kitchen is enormous. There are multiple living areas, a games room, study and spaces that give a large family room to spread out without living on top of one another.
Then there's the floor plan.
Technically a six-bedroom home, one section has been cleverly designed so that a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and lounge can be closed off from the remainder of the house, creating a self-contained granny-flat configuration.
For multigenerational families, adult children, ageing parents or anyone wanting genuine separation under one roof, that flexibility is incredibly valuable.
Upstairs you'll find another three bedrooms, a bathroom and central common room, while downstairs provides multiple living zones and an extraordinary amount of space for everyday family life.
2,304SQM – WITHOUT SACRIFICING LOCATION
For me, another standout is where the property sits within Homestead Ridge.
33 Silversmith Street is positioned on the inner side of the estate, away from the traffic noise associated with Wellard Road, while remaining remarkably close to Wellard Village and the train station.
Google Maps currently puts the walk to Wellard Train Station at approximately 18 minutes.*
That's a pretty difficult combination to find — 2,304sqm of land, approximately 322sqm of living, a quieter internal Homestead Ridge position AND the ability to walk to the train station.
And if you need a serious shed, this property has you covered there too.
The enormous workshop has direct vehicle access and its own mechanical pit. Whether you're into cars, restoring vehicles, tackling projects from home or simply dreaming of the kind of workshop most suburban properties could never accommodate, it's another huge tick.
