"Deloraine" is a rare offering, blending the charm of Albany's early settlement era with the comfort and practicality of contemporary country living. Originally part of Warrenup's first dairy farm, the circa 1896 residence has been thoughtfully restored and extended to create a warm, refined family home. Set alongside reserve land and a picturesque cycleway, it offers peaceful rural ambience just minutes from town.
The original farmhouse now transitions seamlessly into generous, light-filled living spaces. Soaring ceilings, rich jarrah floorboards, and a tile fire set the tone for relaxed country comfort, while wide bifold doors connect the living and dining zones for flexible everyday living and easy entertaining. Timber French doors open to the garden, encouraging effortless indoor-outdoor flow.
The central kitchen blends character and function, with excellent storage, modern appliances, and a practical layout. A very spacious adjoining laundry and wide hallways provide further well-considered storage. The main bathroom is fresh and inviting, featuring a claw-foot bath and second toilet, while an outdoor shower with additional vanity adds versatility for family life or garden days.
Through the original section of the home, accommodation includes three beautifully proportioned bedrooms with garden outlooks, high ceilings and timber floors. These are accompanied by a cosy lounge anchored by the original stone fireplace, now updated with a new insert to enhance comfort while retaining its heritage soul.
Outside, a versatile studio space offers the perfect retreat for art, hobbies, or a home office, adjoining an additional sheltered entertaining area overlooking the grounds. Established plantings, a magnificent mature gum, sprawling lawn, productive vegetable gardens, and a sizeable chook enclosure create a truly wholesome lifestyle setting.
A great three-bay shed, standard carport plus high-span van/boat carport, dual access, scheme water, solar system and being fully fenced nicely complete the infrastructure.
