Rarely do history, lifestyle, and opportunity come wrapped together as beautifully as they do at Kilkenny Lodge. A genuine Hills icon with so many stories in every corner, this was originally established as a horse stud by an Irish owner and named after his famous racehorse. It's a remarkable property that's watched Greenmount grow and evolve around it while remaining delightfully preserved and immaculately cared for by its current owners. Set on a sprawling lifestyle block with towering trees and spectacular treetop and escarpment views, this is the kind of home families decide is their legacy residence. Wake to the sound of birdsong, step across onto the Heritage Trail for your morning walk, wander to the nearby local spots including historic quarries and the favourite Goat Track bike paths, and still enjoy the convenience of shops, bus routes, great schools, fabulous dining, Midland hospital & train station all within easy reach. Even better still, this is a home designed to keep adapting alongside your family for decades to come. With the two-storey main residence, an attached granny flat, plus future subdivision potential subject to WAPC approval, there's room here for grandparents, teenagers, adult children, guests, or simply the luxury of extra space.
Inside, the home delivers a rare combination of authentic character and modern comfort. Beautiful Jarrah flooring, soaring ceilings, decorative cornicing, leadlight features, and picturesque windows deliver on personality from the moment you step through the formal entry. A striking Jarrah staircase sets the tone while fresh paintwork, LED lighting, reverse-cycle air conditioning, solar panels, security features, and solar hot water add the practical upgrades you need. At the heart of the home sits a stunning gourmet kitchen renovated in 2022, where stone benchtops, subway tiling, soft-close cabinetry, quality appliances, and thoughtful storage make cooking here an actual pleasure. The floorplan offers flexibility in every direction with multiple living areas including a downstairs family room, open dining area with sitting nook, and a huge games room complete with built-in buffet, steam sauna, and shower. Upstairs feels like a retreat all of its own, featuring vaulted ceilings, a spacious living area opening onto a balcony and a supersized main suite with walk-in robe, additional built-in storage, and private ensuite with spa bath. The attached granny flat adds another layer of versatility with two bedrooms, its own bathroom, kitchen, meals area, and lounge opening to a private courtyard.

On Summer afternoons you'll naturally gravitate towards the enormous bionizer swimming pool, (a gentler swimming experience with reduced chemical use), while the powered gazebo with ceiling fans and cooling misters creates the perfect setting for spending as much glorious time outside as possible. The back patio and balconies extend the relaxation options even further, while garden sheds, storage sheds, a bird aviary, and chook house add extra layers of practicality and projects. Green thumbs will immediately recognise the opportunity to expand the existing gardens to a food forest and there's plenty of room for multiple vehicles, caravans, trailers, or boats, plus the potential to add a substantial workshop in the future. And what a future it is.
A landmark property with soul, history, and still endless potential.
