Near the shore of Princess Royal Harbour a few minutes from the centre of Albany, this idyllic rural retreat of 9.35ha promises a life of indulgence with space and privacy in abundance.
Reached via a long driveway flanked by native bush, the impressive home occupies an elevated site from where it takes in expansive views over the property and back to the city.
This is a manageable hobby farm or lifestyle block, zoned general agriculture, with good fencing, well-drained grassy pasture for sheep, horses or alpacas, and space for building sheds.
Mostly cleared, the land has areas of mature peppermints and eucalypts for shelter and character, attracting an abundance of native wildlife and birds.
Displaying the essence of a modern classic, the home is built of rendered brick with panels of cladding, finished in a classy pale grey with slate blue trim.
It is comfortable and inviting, with stylishly appointed indoor and outdoor living areas and a swimming pool, all positioned to make the most of the outlook.
A towering ceiling and windows on three walls enhance the feeling of space and light in the open living room. This consists of a family area and dining space, and the kitchen with a dishwasher, five-burner chef’s stove, breakfast bar and attractive cabinetry.
Glass doors at the front open onto a paved, gable-roofed al fresco area with space for the barbecue and access to the poolside deck.
Off the living area, a hallway leads to the three bedrooms, the bathroom and laundry. All bedrooms are queen sized with feature coffer ceilings and built-in robes, and the bathroom has a bath, walk-in shower and vanity.
The family room and bedrooms are carpeted and timber veneer flooring flows throughout the dining area, kitchen and hallway, while the interior is finished with tasteful tiling and blinds and neutral décor.
Rainwater is plentiful and a solar hot water system helps cut power bills.
With a solid letting history through Air BnB, this outstanding holding provides options for new owners to continue to reap financial benefits or revel in the lifestyle themselves.
