5 Gillett Road, Northam WA 6401

They don’t call it Doctors Hill for nothing. Living up here on the hill, sitting on your front verandah soaking up the view, surveying the surroundings below, you’ll feel like the King of Northam.

And this property is not called Mystique Cottage for nothing either. If you take the time to explore this fascinating home, you’ll agree that it lives up to what its name-plate on the front gate promises.

It’s had significant and very costly renovations effected over recent years to transform the dwelling into the gem you see before you today.

When I was a child, the property was owned by my Uncle & Aunty. I have beautiful memories of visits to the house, playing with my cousins, climbing the magnificent Moreton Bay tree in the front yard, picking fruit and veggies and taking home jams and pickles, collecting eggs from the chook yard and eating yummy jam and cream sponge cake made fresh from those eggs.

Although the house floor plan is much the same as it was 50 years ago (the Guest wing excepted), I find it hard to believe it’s the same house. Now it’s like a big, shiny, as-new palace.

The 3rd bedroom is offset to the left side of the entry hall. It has its own bathroom and separate toilet and feels a little disconnected from the main house, like a guest-wing. It would be a great room for Grandma or teenager studying for their TEE or WACEs. Maybe it could be let out as a B&B.

The main bedroom has two doorways; one from the lounge, the other to the Vestibule which allows Mum & Dad quick access the family bathroom and toilet.

Chefs and budding cooks take note, the kitchen is to die for. It’s near new and has oodles of cupboard space.

The lounge room is huge but if you’re an entertainer that holds really big parties, let your guests spill out through French doors to the front verandah or the side family room or the rear patio or the pool and deck.

Home buyers, a picture is worth a thousand words so my words on this page are simply not enough to describe this magnificent home. You ought to do yourself a favour and picture it yourself by attending one of our Open Home days or, better yet, book a private viewing. Its location, its features, its inexpensive value-for-money asking price will have you grabbing your pen and uttering; “Where do I sign?”

Steve Hill and Lara Turnbull are ready and waiting to arrange your inspection. Call soon before it’s too late.
