Heaven on Over Half an Acre!
Majestically nestled on a sprawling block that is stunningly situated opposite the lush Ray Owen Reserve home to a host of community sporting facilities, a national BMX track and the Ray Owen Sports Centre where multi-million-dollar upgrades have been approved just like Lesmurdie Primary School next door, this exceptional 4 bedroom 2 bathroom family home has plenty of space for everyone and will not disappoint when it comes to a relaxing Perth hills lifestyle.
The property is fully gated and secure with an electric driveway entry gate complemented by double side gates for extra access. Outdoors, the front yard is huge, the grassed area is seemingly endless, a massive 50,000L (approx) below-ground salt-water fibreglass swimming pool is ready for summer and a rear grapevine adds a picturesque garden backdrop, just like the assortment of neighbouring fruit trees. Furthermore, double gates reveal access into a large 6m x 8m (approx.) powered workshop shed with an approximate 3m x 8m lean-to, only inches away from a generous and secure single carport that is totally separate from the double lock-up garage.
Internally, modern low-maintenance timber-look flooring allow the living zones to flawlessly flow into one another - although the front lounge off the entry is carpeted for comfort and is splendidly overlooked by the high angled ceilings of a formal dining room that is reserved for those special occasions. The soaring ceiling heights continue into a casual open-plan family and meals area with a fan, a burning wood fireplace, access out to a pleasant side alcove by the grapevine and a separate door to access the main entertaining alfresco-come-verandah at the front of the home. The kitchen is nice and central, featuring tiled splashbacks, stylish light fittings, double sinks, pull-out pantry drawers, a stainless-steel range hood, Omega gas-cooktop and oven appliances and a quality Samsung dishwasher.
The pick of the sleeping quarters is a commodious sunken master-bedroom suite with high ceilings, split-system air-conditioning, a walk-in wardrobe, a make-up/dressing area, direct alfresco access and an impressively-renovated ensuite bathroom - comprising of a shower, toilet, vanity and heat lamps. There is also a study that can easily be converted into either a fifth bedroom or a home office with its own separate external access - the choice is completely yours.
Close to two local IGA supermarkets for all of your groceries, the area's other main schools in Mazenod College, St Brigid's College and Lesmurdie Senior High School, the spectacular Lesmurdie Falls National Park, bus stops, major arteries, childcare centres and other community facilities and the heart of old Kalamunda town centre, this tranquil expanse has a surprising sense of living convenience attached to it, despite its obvious seclusion.

Like Kalamunda, the development of the "Lesmurdie" area is closely tied to the exploitation of the Jarrah forest in the region by the Canning Jarrah Timber Company Ltd. In 1897, Mr Archibald Sanderson, a Perth journalist commenced the acquisition of a number of these properties, with a view to building up a "rural retreat" and he named his property "Lesmurdie". Lesmurdie Cottage was a shooting-box in Banffshire, Scotland, near Dufftown and was let to Mr Sanderson's father for shooting. It was in memory of this cottage that Sanderson applied the name to his property.
The suburb has two shopping centres in the area including Lesmurdie Village on Sanderson Road and the Lesmurdie Road Shopping Centre on the corner of Rooth Rd and Lesmurdie Rd. There are three primary schools including Lesmurdie Primary School, Falls Road Primary School and St Brigid's, and also three high schools including Lesmurdie Senior High School, Mazenod College for boys and St Brigid's College for girls.
