It's as serene as it is sustainable. An architectural family design earning its keep with an upstairsdownstairs cottage pair eager to host family or Airbnb guests, spying the vines of Ashton Hills Winery.
On a nature-swept 8,600m2 parcel, the up to six-bedroom home makes clever use of natural and repurposed materials: from Mintaro slate flagstone tiles to recycled jarrah floors and joinery, every detail spelling bespoke, eco-conscious country living.
And with multiple living areas, 9kW of solar, 170,000L of rainwater, massive 18m x 7m vehicle shedding, a heated pool and spa plus the home's bonus accommodation, the manicured landscape provides citrus, stone fruit, olives, three prized avocado trees, raised veggie beds, and a chicken run.
Your grocery savings will come with a lesson in home-grown value.
The home's thermal mass qualities limit reliance on appliances, as return verandah cut-outs stream northerly sunlight through double-paned glass. Beneath exposed beams, cedar-clad pillars balance out the open plan living zone's seamless space as French doors spill friends outdoors to the BBQ kitchen, pizza oven, pool and patio framed by natives and a pine tree plantation.
A century-old marble cutting board is a pastry cook's dream in the jarrah kitchen featuring an iconic AGA stove and Falmec rangehood, giving entertaining a robust edge.
Upstairs, the master bedroom relishes an ensuite spa bath under a Velux skylight. With up to six bedrooms in total - four with walk-in robes - the dual-level floorplan flexes easily for study or the changing family dynamic, with additional full-length attic storage.
The adjacent cottages joined by a side-by-side and third carport each offer one-bedroom, one-bathroom self-contained flexibility on a property already fluent in self-sufficiency.
In hush-quiet surrounds, you'll relish Summertown's warm community, cool-climate cellar doors, a corner-turn to the Uraidla Hotel, and Norton Summit Primary School in a scoot down Greenhill Road.
There's so much to raise a glass to.
