There's Darlington, and then there's Darlington done properly. It's 2.5 acres of rare Hills magic wrapped in whispering gums with a Winter creek weaving through. From its elevated position, take in sweeping treetop views and the twinkle of Perth's CBD. Beyond the home, double iron gates open to space that lets you breathe - and with subdivision potential or room for another dwelling, it also offers room to grow. Opportunities with cleared land and multiple access points are the kind Darlington buyers wait years to find.
The home itself captures everything a traditional Hills residence should be - warm, solid, and well proportioned. The granite-topped kitchen will make your inner chef smile, and the rest of the home is anchored by exposed brick, timber panelling, and raked ceilings. Yellow Stringy Bark floors, huge timber windows framing bushland like art, and two slow combustion fireplaces set the mood. The main suite has a customised walk-in robe and ensuite while the family bathroom spoils with spa bath and rain shower. Three more bedrooms include a guest wing with private entry and poolside access. A polished Jarrah stairway leads to a loft with treetop and city views - a flexible zone for games, teens, or an office.
