From its big block high on the side of Mount Melville, this exclusive home takes in wide-ranging views over Princess Royal Harbour, out to Torndirrup National Park and around to the Albany windfarm. With smart cladding in soft grey and a Colorbond roof, the fine-looking home embodies charm and classic style. The 1392sqm of land is level at the front with lawns and lush gardens, sloping down at the back, where ancient granite outcrops appear among the gum and peppermint trees and native shrubs, ferns, succulents and flowering creepers. The home was skilfully designed and combines high-quality, contemporary appointments and décor. Big windows make the most of the outlook while creating sunny, airy rooms for comfort and wellbeing. A gabled ceiling features in the open living room comprising a lounge, sitting area and study nook, all warmed by a wood fire and with French doors onto a sheltered rear deck – a prime vantage point for gazing out at yachts on the water. A second deck at the front door provides another option for sheltered entertaining, and several leafy niches in the garden are idyllic spots for relaxing. Sharing the view is the impressive kitchen, with a stainless steel chef's stove and classy cabinetry and shelving, and the adjoining dining room. Two of the bedrooms are doubles and the main bedroom is king sized with a big picture window onto the harbour. Both bathrooms are modern and well designed – one has a striking clawfoot bath. Most windows are double glazed, and stylish flooring, blinds, tiling and lighting finish the place beautifully. A garage with a workshop area sits next to the house, where there's ample off-road parking for guest cars. Behind the garage is a series of raised garden beds for vegetables and herbs, reticulated from a rainwater tank. A significant advantage of this outstanding property is the approved plan for an undercroft extension to house a fourth bedroom with an en suite bathroom, plus a study and living space. Though it's only 1.5km to York Street, the immaculate home enjoys privacy and tranquility from its leafy setting and promises a privileged lifestyle for discerning buyers.
