Offered to the market for the first time, this beautifully preserved late mid-century residence with strong Scandinavian modernist influence is a rare and captivating Hills offering. Designed and built in 1975, this four-bedroom, three-bathroom brick and tile residence is tucked away in a prime, secluded pocket of Gooseberry Hill, where architecture, landscape and lifestyle are seamlessly connected.
Set on a generous 1,210sqm elevated block, the home captures picturesque valley views across native bushland and the national park, creating an authentic Hills lifestyle surrounded by natural beauty, abundant birdlife and visiting wildlife.
The charming home offers a practical layout with multiple living areas suited to family living and entertaining. An open-plan kitchen, meals and living area forms a warm and welcoming central zone, flowing to outdoor entertaining spaces and the north-facing garden. A separate dining room and family living area, featuring a Norwegian Jøtul slow-combustion wood fire, provides additional space for relaxation and connection. Large windows throughout flood the interior with natural light and frame leafy garden outlooks, inviting the outdoors in.
The well-appointed kitchen offers gas hotplates, electric oven, dishwasher, double sink, generous storage, an expansive breakfast bar and a walk-in pantry, making it both functional and inviting.
Accommodation is generous and thoughtfully considered. The king-sized main bedroom is privately positioned and includes walk-in robes and an ensuite. A second bedroom with its own ensuite and built-in robes is ideal for guests or family members, while two further bedrooms with built-in robes are serviced by a central family bathroom.
Outdoors, the property truly shines. The expansive yard has been cleverly designed to balance open lawn areas for children with low-maintenance native gardens. The terraced below-ground saltwater swimming pool overlooks the gardens and valley beyond, complemented by multiple outdoor entertaining areas ideal for gatherings or quiet relaxation. A studio offers the perfect home office, gym or creative retreat, adding further versatility. Automatic reticulated landscaped gardens feature lawn areas, rose gardens, vegetable beds, wildflowers and a selection of established fruit trees, creating a peaceful and private sanctuary.
Original design features have been lovingly maintained throughout the home, including timber kitchen cabinets, open shelves, two slow-combustion wood fires, reinforcing the home's warmth, authenticity and enduring mid-century appeal. While the home already shines with character and potential, a fresh coat of paint and new carpet would further enhance its appeal.
Located within the Gooseberry Hill Primary School catchment and just minutes from Gooseberry Hill Village, Kalamunda amenities, nature trails and Bickley Valley wineries, this tightly held location offers the best of Hills living, all within 30 minutes of Perth CBD and 15 minutes from the airport.
