A Hillside Masterpiece

Yearning for seclusion without sacrificing award-winning design or access to civilisation? This architecturally-designed four-bedroom, two-bathroom home fulfils the fantasy and could become your new reality. Step inside and discover how the clever orientation of this Western Red Cedar weatherboard home encapsulates the landscape and those jaw-dropping views. 

 

Blackbutt timber flooring and soaring raked ceilings with skylights are just some of the features of this split-level home. 1992 was the year this unique property was built and won the Framed Housing of the Year award by architect Allan Davies.  Featuring many architectural features of the era, this is a home for the ages where the new owner could update the existing construction and propel it into the future with some cosmetic upgrades. By further encompassing the beautiful light flooding into this home and capitalising on those epic views, there’s an untapped opportunity to add significant value. 

From this distinct split-level home, almost every room benefits from a view, whether of the abundant gardens or the sweeping vistas over the valley to Perth's skyline. Those incredible views are even better from your very own viewing platform. Imagine your lifestyle here with multiple indoor and outdoor living zones, including an enclosed deck with a window seat nestled into a picture window. What an inspiring spot to work, read, write or paint.

 

You'll reconnect with nature while meandering through the landscaped grounds spanning the 3,063sqm block with several spots for kids to explore. Think of indulgent relaxation and the parties by the below-ground pool surrounded by decking, recessed walls, landscaping and overlooked by a gazebo – cocktails, anyone?

 

Within moments you can be in Kalamunda's town centre, where you'll find cafes, supermarkets, specialty stores, galleries and amenities. There are several nearby schools, such as Mary's Mount Primary School a short walk away. You're surrounded by parks such as Stirk Park and reserves like the Mundy Regional Park, where you'll enjoy kilometres of walking trails. Hardcore will trekkers will appreciate the proximity to the Bibbulumun Track, trailing for 1000km to Albany. Within 10 minutes, you can be wine tasting in the Bickley Valley, in Midland or at the Perth Airport, and it's just 30 minutes to Perth's CBD. 

 

This unique home needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated and is an excellent option for families, couples and creatives. Please don't hesitate to contact Liz Stewart at liz@xceedre.com.au or on 0422 247 321.
