Located high up at the western end of Marnie Road, this beautiful property is ideally located close to all the amenities of the Glen Forrest community. Only 200m to the prestigious Helena College and a short walk to the Glen Forrest shops including cafes, post office, Wellness Centre, bottleshop, restuarants, primary school and more.
The land size is 3748 square metres ( just under one acre ). Sitting on the 3m wide full lenght front porch, the new owners will enjoy a view to the north over the Glen Forrest valley and the orchard on the gentle north facing front yard ( which includes a tree house for the kids ).
This aspect also provides ample natural light to the main living room and front bedrooms.
The home comprises 4 generous sized bedrooms including an en-suite off the master bedroom and 5th bedroom or study. The main bathroom is exquisite and amazingly huge. Both living areas have wood fired heaters and house is cooled by a ducted evaporitive air conditioning system.
Given the roof space is so large, the air con is not often required during the summer months as the home stays naturally cool.
There is also a separate dining room and the modern kitchen includes a built in dish-washer, micro wave oven, upside down fridge, water filtration unit and a walk in pantry. The laundary also includes a 3rd W.C. and 3rd shower. A huge 60 sqm. rear pergola looks out to the back yard which is almost level with an easy care native landscape and large secure chook yard and chook house. A double drive through car port is adjacent to the rear pergola.
The rear solid brick garage has enough room for 2 small cars and includes a workshop with 3 phase power, separate large storeroom/studio and separate office with internet and phone connections. The rear garage could easily be converted to a comfortabel self contained unit ( subject to Shire of Mundaring approval ) with a view over the bush reserve to the west. This reserve also provides a feeling of extra space and privacy.
Power bills are very low given the 1.5 kW solar power system and solar hot water system with electric booster.
This generous sized character home will not fail to impress and would suit the growing family looking for space and traquility. Mum and/or dad could also have thier own office space away from the house to work from.
Midland is only a quick ten minute drive down Greenmount hill and the new Midland Hospital will be open in 2015. There is also an exciting future for the old Midland Railway workshops which are being converted and revitatlised into an Artisans Centre.
Experience the lifestyle of an established community being the much sought after Glen Forrest with all the facilities on offer plus numerous parks, reserves and walk trails. Also close to the Airports and Midland train station to ride to the city.
