The Story
The ever popular and established Martindale Estate on the edge of Mount Barker provides the locale for this expansive, two storey home. Number 22 offers an acre of land with the house perfectly positioned to take in the surrounding views.
The home has a classic elegance with a floor plan that has been designed to appeal to the owners requiring a house where they can reside and live harmoniously due to the comfortable and spacious proportions of both the living and sleeping zones.
Once you've moved in, you will no doubt enter via the double garage door access through the laundry and into the kitchen but, your guests will come to the porch then into the wide tiled hallway with its vaulted ceiling.
They will pass the home theatre room, the peaceful study (sensibly located away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the household) the more formal dining and sitting room (currently home to a very large 10 seater dining table) and then enter into what will naturally become the central hub of the home - the kitchen, family and meals area. If you're a person with a penchant for entertaining, you will relish the space on offer here.
There is ample space for larger furniture items together with a kitchen design enabling you to keep an eye on the smaller occupants of the home at all times.
The covered pergola area is reached via sliding glass doors, allowing the interior and exterior to blend seamlessly during the milder weather. The pergola
is well protected from the elements keeping it private and protected for your summer evening soirees!
A downstairs powder room has been thoughtfully incorporated off the hallway as has the cloak room and storage cupboard adjacent to the stairway.
Head up the wide stairway to the second storey where you will discover the serene bedrooms with an additional living room. Your choices are ample but this could become a room where smaller household members can unwind and calm down before bedtime. Alternatively, I can think of a number of teenagers who would be more than content putting their stamps on this spacious room! The possibilities are endless. The bedrooms are all located upstairs. The main bedroom has a hotel vibe with a spacious ensuite with a spa bath and enviable walk in robe. Bedrooms 2, 3 and 4 are all double sized
(2 have split system air conditioners).
Built in robes feature in the family bedrooms while
the master offers a fabulous walk in robe / dressing room. Storage solutions have been maximised throughout the house enabling clutter to be kept to a minimum.
The gardens have a park like theme with a feature waterfall cleverly using water overflow from the underground storage tank. Take the time to explore the gardens, there are a number of interesting and unusual species of plants. These are both native and English deciduous varieties chosen for their bird attracting qualities, summer shade and autumnal colour. The entire property is exceedingly private due to the clever use of screening shrubs and trees.
The current owners are very involved in native birdlife rescue. They work with the conservation authorities and the aviary is of wildlife park proportions and quality.
With a paved base, and fox proof fencing (to 600mm) the birds or animals are safe and secure.
In essence, this substantial, elegant home with its acre of low maintenance gardens is well suited to a larger family or those simply seeking a spacious, comfortable abode in this desirable, established area.
