A dirt track winds past established eucalypts and large sheds, before arriving at a fully fenced home paddock and slightly unruly garden to create an iconic rural setting. A gate in a low stone wall leads to the rear of the home where a large alfresco entertaining area looks out to the gardens and across the paddocks. Country life means that this is most likely to be your usual entry to the home with a mudroom providing a space to leave work clothes and clean up before stepping into the central, open plan living space.
A spacious meals area has ample room for a large family-sized table while the kitchen features a wall oven and electric hob, a dishwasher and pantry. Good storage and bench space create a practical workspace and easy access to the outdoor entertaining area holds the promise of relaxed alfresco meals after a long day of work. A slow combustion fire and reverse cycle air-conditioning make this central living area a room for all seasons.
Adjoining the kitchen is a sunken, formal lounge with views across the front verandah to the below-ground pool. The front of this property is something of a hidden treasure. With an open area waiting for transformation into a formal lawn and a path leading to a winter creek and billabong, it is not too hard to visualise an impressive formal garden with a private, waterside picnic spot. Add to this scene, the below-ground pool edged with palm trees, and the picture of classic country living is complete.
At the end of a day on the farm, coming home to a good night's sleep is essential. A spacious parents' retreat and 3 junior bedrooms will see everyone well-rested and ready for each new day. The main suite features a sunken bedroom, separate sitting/dressing room, walk-through wardrobe and an ensuite.
A door from the main residence opens to a large, plumbed and powered studio. Ideal as a farm office or as a home business HQ with a separate entry and reverse-cycle air-conditioning.
Complete with the infrastructure of a working farm – 2 powered sheds, 8 paddocks, shelters and a round yard – this property has the added benefits of scheme water and a 3.5 kW solar array.
Dreams can come true on this accessible country property with the scope to make it your own. The town of Bakers Hill boasts an award-winning Bakery and is linked to the Perth CBD by the Great Eastern Highway. The bustling town of Northam is 20 minutes down the road and Mundaring a 30-minute drive away ensuring all you need in the way of shopping, services, schools, medical and sporting facilities are within easy reach.??
