One could be forgiven for thinking you were in the English countryside instead of the Perth Hills as you make your way past the sign up the long private driveway which leads to "The Stags Head". With a distinctly English Tudor-style design, the residence is nestled privately amongst stunning towering trees and an expansive yet easy-care landscape.
Enter the home through the custom designed wooden door to a spacious entrance foyer. Feature timber beams here are cleverly offset by light neutral decor and modern floor tiling to create timeless appeal. The eye is immediately drawn to the huge lounge to the right of the entrance where a grand stone fireplace creates an impressive focal point for the room. Masses of french windows flood this room with light and provide pretty vistas out to the garden.
To the left of the entrance is a dining area, which once again has banks of french windows and a door that leads out to a huge open deck which overlooks the towering trees and granite outcrops which grace the front of the property. One can just imagine entertaining family and friends here in this stunning space as twilight descends on another peaceful summer eve....now this is Hills living at its best!!
Back inside, you will find a beautiful modern kitchen with an island bench and stone bench tops. Quality stainless appliances including a 900mm oven and 6 burner cook top will make cooking here an absolute pleasure. An adjacent dining nook would be perfect as a casual meals area but works equally well in its current role as a study.
A spiral staircase beyond the entrance foyer leads to the massive fourth bedroom. This space could easily be divided to form a fifth bedroom if required or a massive bedroom and chill out space for a lucky teenager. The main bedroom is to the right at the foot of the staircase and has a bank of built in robes and a cleverly secreted entrance to a modern ensuite.
Step up to magnificent double custom-crafted wooden doors which feature a whimsical heart cutout to "The Stags Bar". This spacious room has a a quaint built in bar and direct access out to a lovely and private covered al fresco. A matching single wooden door from this room leads to the minor bedroom wing where you will find generous sized rooms both with built in robes. They share the use of a spacious family bathroom and separate toilet with fabulous retro tiling.
Outside you will find a spacious air conditioned studio with shower which has plenty of room to add a kitchenette and toilet if required. This is the perfect space for someone who works from home or as a teenagers pad, or to serve as ancillary guest accommodation should it be required. An adjacent double carport and stacks of extra parking complete this very pretty picture.
Whilst the rear of the property is level and low maintenance, with plenty of scope to add those extra amenities should you wish which would take this already magnificent unique property to the next level.
