It took Goldilocks a few attempts to realise what was “just right”, but with this 1993-built clinker-brick home, you will know instantly that you have found a rare combination of country feel with all the space your family could need in a handy location.
Set back from the road behind native parkland, the 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home has lovely high ceilings and includes a large study with built-in desk and shelving, formal and informal living areas, a spacious master suite and separate junior wing.
From the circular driveway at the front of the home, wide granite steps lead up to a long, paved verandah and into the central portico, the open family room is arranged to one side and a formal lounge with brick-surround fireplace to the other.
The family room features a long window seat with storage; the ideal spot for watching nature in all her moods, daydreaming or curling up with a book. A slow combustion fireplace ensures you are never too hot or too cold.
A granite splash back and benchtops, white cabinetry and a massive walk-in pantry make for a practical, family-friendly kitchen. A formal dining room adjoins the kitchen; views across the lawn to the pond and water feature create a serene space while a large built-in dresser provides ample storage for porridge bowls, serving ware and table linens.
The master suite is arranged at the northern end of the home; a self-contained adults’ zone, the mood here is one of relaxed luxury. Double doors open to reveal plush carpet, reverse cycle AC, a ceiling fan and views to the garden. Five full-height built-in robes line the entrance to the large, tiled ensuite complete with a corner spa, large shower, two vanities and separate W.C.
The carpeted queen-sized junior bedrooms are found at the southern end of the home along with a family bathroom where a bathtub, shower and separate W.C. make getting ready in the mornings an easier proposition.
Running across the back of the home is a deep, gabled entertaining area with views to the lawn and gardens. Within earshot of the water feature, this spectacular alfresco space is ideal for relaxed summer meals, weeknight barbecues and a myriad of daily activities (or inactivity).
Set behind the sleepout and workshop is a 2-stall stable and tack room with a corral and a fully fenced horse paddock is to be found at the rear of the property.
Summit Road ends with a track leading through to the Heritage Reserve trail, great for riding, cycling or walking. Easy access to the village of Mundaring, arterial road links and a choice of primary and secondary schools deliver a well-rounded Hills lifestyle on a fully fenced 3.3 acres in a big, comfortable and family-ready home.

Permanent settlement in Mundaring began in 1882-84 when Mr Peter Gugeri established a vineyard south of the Eastern Railway. The first railway siding at Mundaring was named after him and for some years the area was generally known as "Gugeris". A later settler, M H Jacoby, took over Gugeris' vineyards in 1893, and named the business the "Mundaring Vineyard Company". The name came from an Aboriginal camp situated nearby and the meaning given to Jacoby by the aborigines was "a high place on a high place". The correct pronunciation was "Mundahring" but common usage has gradually converted this to "Mundairing".
Known as the heart of the Perth hills, Mundaring is located on the eastern edge of the Perth Hills. It offers stunning walking and cycling trails, spectacular state forest and national parks and home to the historic Mundaring Weir. Other facilities include two primary schools (Sacred Heart School and Mundaring Primary School) and one secondary school (Mundaring Christian College).
