Up the wooden stairway are three further newly carpeted bedrooms, all with built in robes and each offering very nice views over the property’s gardens and native bush. The upstairs bathroom with shower and vanity also includes a toilet.
Paved verandahs, ideal for outdoors living, circle the home while the single carport is conveniently positioned on the north eastern corner of the home.’Donnybrook Stone’ retaining walls have been used extensively around the home and throughout the gardens to create, firstly a nice level pad on which the home is set and secondly to enhance the overall garden setting.
The gardens, which are watered via a manually controlled reticulation system, include lawn, flower beds, various fruit trees and areas of native vegetaion. A pathway from the home leads to a lockable 10m x 7.5m shed which has a concrete floor.
Water for the property needs, including the home, is currently drawn from a bore equipped with and electric powered submersible pump, which pumps water to a 9000 litre plastic tank positioned at a high point and from which water is then gravity fed to points of need.
Gardens can be watered directly from the bore if so desired.
A galvanised 9,000 litre tank also stores rainwater able to be used for drinking and cooking needs if wanted.
A dam on the property can also be used for garden needs if so desired, although it is currently holds very little water due to much lower than normal winter rainfall during 2010.
Less than 5 minutes drive north of Donnybrook, via Irishtown Rd and then Miller Rd, and about 30 minutes by road to Bunbury, the property has 2 sealed road frontages, with regular, mail, school bus and rubbish pick up services available. Priced to “meet the market” this property represents very good value at the now discouted price of $649,500.
