Meander up the long driveway and discover this exceptionally well maintained and intimate 3 bedroom home privately tucked away and screened by a magnificent garden filled with a riot of colour. Solidly constructed in 1973 and set on nearly half an acre, the home was renovated and extended approximately 6 years ago.

The front garden leads to the deck which is a perfect spot during the warmer months to extend the entertaining outdoors from the adjacent family room. Expansive glass sliding doors open to reveal the spacious and sun filled family room, casual dining and kitchen. Definitely a home with a heart, a really "good feel" and wonderful if you like top entertain family and friends. The current owners have loved the benefits of a well planned kitchen with loads of space to spread out across the jarrah benchtops, ample cabinetry for storage space and quality appliances including electric oven and cooktops and dishwasher. Cosy combustion heater for the winter or the instant convenience of reverse cycle split system air conditioning for year round comfort.

Flexible living is situated adjacent where the space is currently utilised as a formal dining room. Although you might prefer another living room? Either way, the room is spacious to cope with both. Floor to ceiling windows soak up the vista across the garden and a gas log fire keeps this area toasty.

Three generously proportioned bedrooms are accessed from the dining room, 2 with ensuite bathrooms. The master bedroom is cantilevered and you feel like you could float across the garden through the floor to ceiling windows. Loads of storage in the built-in robes and ensuite bathroom with a marble vanity. Soft furnishings throughout are plush and luxurious and consideration was given to be neutral toned to blend in with all colour palettes. Who needs a holiday when every day can be just like living in a 5 star B&B?

Whilst the property is of course connected to mains water, the owners have been operating solely from the 88,000 litres of rainwater that is plumbed to the house and garden. The garden is absolutely gorgeous with lots of rare trees including a New Zealand tri-colour birch, camellias, azaleas, rhododendrons, magnolia, ferns and mature oak trees and Japanese maples. The garden is fully fenced for peace of mind for the safety of children and animals.

Side-by-side double remote controlled carport under the main roof leads directly into the family room which makes life so easy when it comes to unloading the groceries! A reasonably rare find in the hills! Plus there is also the added advantage of a workshop and cellar situated underneath the original section of the home for the handy people to have a little tinker and play.

Homes in this sought after location are tightly held and for good reason; proximity to all the conveniences of the Stirling Village are located with a strolling distance!
