Margaret River Meets Sorrento
Boasting a fantastic position on a huge 902sqm (approx.) block with duplex potential, this quirky 5 bedroom 3 bathroom home - perfect for young families that love to entertain - has been fully renovated to combine a country vibe from our state's famous southwest with a beachy feel, enhanced by being nestled just minutes away from our glorious coastline itself.
A modest faade includes a three-tiered garden deck that leads to the front verandah and beyond, with a sunken lounge welcoming you inside whilst being overlooked by a spacious formal dining room - also reserved for those special occasions. An open study to the left of the entry enjoys a pleasant leafy aspect, whilst a striking feature barn door slides open to reveal the most stylish of open-plan Gourmet Kitchen and casual meals areas, playing host an internal natural bush pole, wooden breakfast bar, funky light fittings, a storage pantry, integrated dishwasher, a five-burner Euro gas cooktop and oven, charming original brickwork, stunning views of the shimmering rear below-ground swimming pool and more.
An overwhelming sense of character and comfort flows through to the light, bright and adjacent family room with its own double-door storeroom, a burning wood fireplace, high raked ceilings, two feature hanging lounges and outdoor access to a massive side L-shaped patio-entertaining area. Doubling external options right beside the pool and its fabulous "relaxation" decking is a stunning protected alfresco that is fit to host absolutely any occasion with its timber island congregation area, caf blinds, feature louvers, audio speakers, stone-clad South African Braai wood fireplace and a magnificent second outdoor Chefs Kitchen - comprising of another dishwasher, a range hood, five-burner Euro gas cooktop and oven appliances, a three-door drinks fridge, double sinks and more.
A separate tiled gym or activity room essentially triples the amount of personal living options on offer and sits just inches away from an outdoor "third" bathroom (with a shower, toilet and its own gas hot-water system) that is great for exclusive pool use and even for your guests, being right next to a versatile fifth bedroom or retreat with built-in wardrobes, a desk and easy access off the patio. Back inside, a generous sized front master suite is totally separate from the minor sleeping quarters and will capture your imagination through a series of feature walls, alongside a ceiling fan, walk-in robe and a revamped ensuite bathroom with a rain shower, twin "his and hers" vanities, heat lamps and a separate toilet.
