What a beautiful tranquil sanctuary in the heart of Aldgate!
You may have driven along leafy Wilpena Terrace & not have known this water oasis existed due to the privacy of it's location.
Only minutes to Aldgate, Stirling & Bridgewater offering quick freeway access and a short stroll to bus services, you would believe you were actually in a tropical rainforest, with all the benefits of being at home.
The home is a solid brick residence of 3 bedrooms, all with built in wardrobes, bathroom with separate loo, large laundry with lots of storage, long galley kitchen and a choice of '4' sitting areas in the lounge, dining, family or sun room which opens up to a paved verandah with scenic views of the lush and established garden with feature stone walls & outstanding dam that should be on Burke's Backyard or front cover of Home & Garden!
Visitors, parents or teenagers? What a great place for family functions around the feature combustion heater in the HUGE 10m x 5.5m Shed! Would suffice as great games room or perhaps the great escape for a stunning ARTIST studio with this spectacular room overlooking the most picturesque water garden complemented by a colourful array of very impressive plants and fernery.
A tool/wood shed is on the property with an intercom facility between shed and the home.
The grounds?... wow... now this is where it gets VERY special. The current owners have developed this 2680sqm block over the years into a wonderland of mature trees, hedges and colourful flowers. In Autumn you'll find the colours of Belladonna Lillies, Nerines, Ash trees, Japanese Maples and Liquidambers. Coming into Spring the daffodils, jonquils, tulips, magnolias, flowering cherries and camellia's bloom and fragrance the air, which then leads into the summer colours of agapanthus and hundreds of native ferns.
Saving the best til last, the dam... well... who has their own dam in Aldgate? The gardens are watered via this spring fed dam with creek directed through it via hand built stone channels, also receiving excess rainwater runoff through underground stormwater pipes. Down here you walk along paths, over bridges, under lazy tropical ferns and can sit on the extensive decking to hand feed wood ducks, turtles, herons, cormorants, ibis and koalas. Tell the kids to throw the yabbie nets in too!
This is a very unique property, providing a wonderful lifestyle opportunity for all the family.
