THE DEAL
Set in one of Gooseberry Hill's most sought-after pockets, 31 Killara Place offers the scale, flexibility and connection to the Hills that make acreage living so appealing. It is a substantial architect-designed family home with a strong sense of warmth, surrounded by established greenery and plenty of room to make the property your own.
Inside, blackbutt timber floors, jarrah-framed windows and considered use of natural light give the home a distinctive character. The entry opens into generous formal living and dining spaces, with soft tones and timber details, creating a welcoming first impression before the home opens into its large central living zone.
The heart of the home is an expansive open-plan living and dining area, where the soaring ceiling draws the eye upwards and a slow-combustion wood heater anchors the room. Large windows connect the living spaces with the surrounding gardens, while built-in window seats provide the perfect spots to settle in with a book or simply take in the outlook.
The kitchen brings plenty of warmth through its timber cabinetry, with practical storage and a layout that keeps it connected to the adjoining living areas. From here, the home continues into an impressive extended entertaining space, designed around natural light and airflow using solar passive principles, with jarrah flooring, built-in seating and a sink making it equally suited to relaxed afternoons or larger gatherings.
Accommodation is generous, with five bedrooms providing flexibility for families, guests and those working from home. Four bedrooms feature extensive built-in cabinetry and dedicated desk spaces.
Outside is where the scale of the property really comes into its own. Three horse paddocks and established equestrian facilities provide an opportunity rarely found so close to the amenities of Perth. The stables include three-phase power and could also be adapted into substantial workshop or shed space depending on your needs.
Solar power, a bore and ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning add everyday practicality, while the property's generous landholding provides genuine scope for a Hills lifestyle without sacrificing access to the city. With Gooseberry Hill's bushland setting, established community and proximity to Kalamunda, schools, shops and Perth's eastern suburbs, this is a property that offers space to live, entertain and pursue the lifestyle that comes with owning land in the Hills.
