Valley Views, Fruit Trees, Large Double Patios and Huge Workshop
Welcome to this bright and delightful three-bedroom, one-bathroom home built in 1970. Tucked away on a large 2,593 square metre block, nestled in a prime hilltop position, beautiful bush sunsets and valley views are part of daily life. This home flows smoothly over a relaxing 128 square metres of floor space. Enjoy a beautifully presented light-filled interior with brand new carpets and fresh paint throughout, huge windows, abundant power points and split-cycle air-conditioning in every bedroom (and two in the living room!) Make good use of the very functional exterior, with massive double patios, a well maintained front lawn, huge powered steel workshop, raised garden beds, many well established fruit-trees and multiple parks and pristine nature reserves right nearby. This has been a happy family home for many years and it's now time to pass the torch onwards, the buyers of this home will fall in love with the location, views, night sky, and excellent property features on offer here. Don't miss out.
A driveway that is skirted by tall trees, bush on your left and lively lawn on your right, greets you upon entrance to the property. Park either in the undercover triple carport, or in the open parking spaces that abound in front of the home. Set back from the road, this is a quiet and private residence that makes every-day life relaxing. The front of the home has healthy landscaped garden beds, a large concrete verandah with full length steel patio (added to the home in 2012) which provides shelter from the weather and creates an excellent space for activities. The entrance is well lit and features a frosted glass pane. To your left is a glass wall and door to the loungeroom, providing privacy but keeping the whole space feeling bright and open. In front of you is the kitchen, and the corridor stretches to your right towards the rest of the home.
The main living space at this home is designed with comfort and flexibility in mind, wrapping around the kitchen area. The western side of this space has a large triple window (two with modern security mesh) and vertical blinds. The north-eastern end of this room has a window with phenomenal views over the bush valleys of Mahogany Creek, and is a perfect space for a dining set-up as it connects straight to the kitchen. This living area also features a full suite of power points around the room, a combustion heater with stylish timber mantle and terracotta brickwork, a ceiling fan, and two split-cycle AC units.
Jump into a bright and vibrant kitchen that is well designed to help you cook up a storm. There is a massive range of cupboards running the length of the kitchen, an electric oven with exhaust fan, dual access to both the dining area and the main entrance area (handy for shopping) and a good-sized pantry. This area has tiling backing all bench spaces, above the kitchen sink and around the oven. There are two large windows that enjoy views over the rear of the property including the chook run and raised garden beds. Both these windows have vertical blinds and modern security mesh screens.
The master bedroom is at the southern end of the home with massive western facing windows. Just like the rest of the home, there is brand new carpet, fresh paint, a split-cycle air-conditioning unit (every single bedroom has one of these!) a ceiling fan, security mesh screens and vertical blinds on the windows. This bedroom is in a prime position, with calming views across the front of the property including the front lawn, driveway and plenty of lovely Perth Hill's bush!
Secondary bedrooms are all a decent size, with split-cycle air-conditioning units, fresh paint and brand new carpet throughout. Strategically placed windows flood the home with beautiful natural light that filters through the trees on your block. The second bedroom (in the middle of the home) has a floor to ceiling built in robes with mirrored sliding doors.
The bathroom is attractive and well looked after. A lavender pink vanity and bath are ready to help streamline your morning routine. There is a good sized shower with white tiled walls and frosted glass. Dual towel racks and a built in sliding mirror cupboard above the vanity keeps everything organised, and a double window means draws in plenty of natural light and air.
The steel workshop is connected to power (with its own RCD's) and multiple power points, is well lit inside and out, and has double roller door access. An extra tall ceiling gives you significant project space and a concrete floor is reliable and sturdy. There's also a full length peg board storage solution installed, perfect for tools and equipment.
Out the back of the home are multiple raised garden beds (with healthy soil and easy access for harvesting through dedicated laneways), a purpose-built chook run (seperate sleeping area and main run), incredible valley views from the northern end of the property, a rope swing, and a series of fruit trees including: two large loquat trees (one is approximately 12 metres tall!), an orange tree, a mandarin tree, a lemon tree, two plum trees, a peach tree, two fig trees and a mulberry tree. Reticulation running to many of these trees, as well as the garden beds, needs some love before being operational again.
Located at the crest of Brooking Road, this home has easy public transport access (bus route along Brooking Road and Great Eastern Highway), a swift commuting connection to Great Eastern Highway and sits nicely between the shopping options nearby. Some of Perth's best National Parks are nearby including John Forrest National Park, and the well known Railway Reserves Heritage walk and cycle trail is moments away through Strettle Road Reserve. Nearby school choices include Glen Forrest Primary School, Mundaring Christian College, Parkerville Primary School, Eastern Hills Senior High School and Sacred Heart Primary School.
