Marri Hill is surrounded by lovingly landscaped outside 'rooms', adorned with an array of green and growing treasures - fruit trees, original roses from the '40s, jacaranda, ornamental pears, and wisteria. Practically, there are established veggie patches, an old bathtub from the original house waiting to be filled with seedlings, a chook house for resident fowl, a bird aviary, and even a dedicated firepit where all your good stories will unfold. Greenmount is a special spot that seems to invite families in who will care for and respect the richness of the past. When you're ready to get out and about, it's just a quick skip to the local shops and lovely cafes or head off on a mountain biking adventure, start a walking club along the scenic trails, or join a local sporting club. Midland is only minutes away in the car where you can access the eatery strip, cinema, and public transport to get you straight into the CBD.
