Open plan living with a cathedral ceiling and dual aspect glazing is a transitional space at the heart of this 2009-built home. Highlight windows set to capture the winter sun fill the family room and meals area with light during the cooler months but exclude the sun during the height of summer. A stone-clad chimney provides a visual break between the family and dining zones, its tall pillar emphasising the height of the white pitched ceiling.

Adjoining the meals area is a country kitchen with a Falcon twin oven with 5- burners and a warming element, a central island and breakfast bar, a walk-in pantry, and a dishwasher. Cream cabinets and ample bench space make it easy to imagine cooking up a storm to be enjoyed alfresco with family and friends.

Adult and junior wings are arranged to either side of the central living zone. To one side of the principal suite is a multi-purpose craft room/home office with built-in storage, a worktop and a large north-facing window. The main bedroom is exceptionally generous, with double doors leading to a verandah edged with lavender and scented roses. Air conditioning and carpet bring a level of indulgence to this parents’ retreat, as do two walk-in robes and an ensuite with a big spa tub.

The junior wing mirrors the layout of the adult’s zone by beginning with a multi-purpose space – currently a media room but suited to use as an activity/playroom or formal dining room. A central hall leads to three bedrooms with built-in robes; these notably large rooms share the family bathroom and a separate WC.

Multiple sliding glass doors to the front and rear verandahs create an indoor-outdoor floorplan and ensure full access to the valley views. The north-facing verandah spans either side of a portico and overlooks lawn and gardens planted with low-maintenance natives to a spring-fed winter creek. The gardens are maintained by 2-zone reticulation fed from a rainwater tank.

Two sheds offer excellent storage and workspace; the first is a barn-style structure, the second a powered workshop with a concrete floor, air conditioner and Metters stove – a man-cave in the making. A small grove of citrus, including lime, grapefruit, lemonade, and blood orange, is planted at one side of the home.

Perfect for a family looking to enjoy rural living and modern convenience, the property is a short five-minute drive from the township of Bakers Hill and within commuting distance of Mundaring, Midland and beyond. A range of country services is twenty minutes away in Northam.
