There once was an artist from Switzerland. This wonderful lady moved to Albany and built a series of homes, always unique, designed to capture the best of natural light, warmth, and views, and built by the best builders to the best standards and incorporating natural and recycled materials to bring incredible warmth and soul. This superb home is the final one built, and the crowning glory of the portfolio.
Built in 2005 by esteemed local builder Zac Caramia, this magical home sits in an elevated position on the corner lot of Sheringa Park, backing on to farmland with a stunning outlook across the property, to horses and cattle grazing beyond, framed by the Porongurup Range in the distance. Designed with a northerly aspect, the home is filled with natural light, with abundant glazing maximizing the lush and relaxing outlook. Pitched ceilings, recycled jarrah floors and doors, stone fireplace, and granite benchtops create a wonderful ambience and incredible warmth and soul. Outside, the landscaped grounds bring in abundant birdlife, and include veggie beds, a brand new 50sqm shed/workshop, dog enclosure, and more.
This is not an enormous home but it is an absolute standout for astute buyers who value quality and style. This is a wonderful block, and an amazing home, ideal for young families, professionals, and retirees. If you want something special, that special is hard to find, and this special might just be it.

You will absolutely love this place. This is a home, not a house. Warm, cosy, soulful it just feels amazing. Surround yourself with character, sit inside by a warm fire and watch birds preening on the deck while horses graze in the distance. Enjoy a summers morning on the deck admiring greenery and the haze over the Porongurups in the distance. Relax while you only look at the world, and not neighbors soak it all in. This is a haven or peace and privacy, close to amazing beaches and waterways, and around 15 minutes to thriving Albany.
