This gorgeous family home will take your breath away from the moment you lay eyes on the soaring roofline of the second storey alfresco area that juts out from the house commanding spectacular views of the escarpment and the twinkling city lights. You will spend many an enjoyable hour relaxing and entertaining on the large deck that joins the spacious open plan kitchen, lounge and dining room.
Bathed in sunlight, this house has the feel of a Scandinavian ski lodge without the heaviness. Timber is used in abundance and to great effect throughout the home. The upper storey features Cedar shingles on the external walls, windows and exposed solid beams and ceilings in the kitchen and living areas. The kitchen includes a double sink, stainless steel oven and grill with separate gas cooktop and plenty of storage, plus a walk-in pantry with ample room to house a large fridge/freezer.
A generous multi-purpose room with great natural light near the kitchen could be used as a formal dining room, artist’s studio or office. Next to that you’ll find the laundry with doors accessing a small verandah and the linear clothesline. Ducted reverse cycle air conditioning keeps summer heat at bay in the upper storey.
Wake up to views from the master bedroom, which has timber doors that open out onto the deck, plus a walk-in robe and ensuite with large shower, toilet and vanity. A second large bedroom, with views across the garden, has built-in robes and features a freestanding bath, vanity and shower in the ensuite with a separate toilet room.
Head down the Jarrah staircase and you’ll find an enormous sunken family room with carpet and a wood stove to keep you cosy. Two more bedrooms also on the ground floor have convenient access to a neat bathroom with toilet, shower, and vanity.
The semi-circular driveway sweeps past the huge granite stones that form the imposing base of this grand home. Mature, bird-filled, native shrubs screen the house from the street. Lying to the east of the house, you’ll find a beautiful garden with lawn, wisteria, rambling nasturtium, citrus, fig and jacaranda trees, and a heady-scented jasmine vine hanging like a perfect pendant from the top deck.
The property has a fully fenced area for your family, providing a great space for pets, a good sized double garage, under croft storage and fire suppression system on the roof.
Located on sought-after Dalry Road, one of the best streets in Darlington, it’s a pleasant stroll to the village and all its amenities. Public transport access is easy, school options are plentiful and the facilities of Midland, the airport and Swan Valley are close by.
