This charming country character cedar & iron pole home is set on 6.7 acres with thousands more to explore from the back gate, offering a wonderful lifestyle opportunity whether you enjoy horseriding, bushwalking or paddling a canoe! The property backs onto the Swan river reserve with bridle/walk trails leading to the nearby State Equestrian Centre and upstream to beautiful Bells Rapids. Across the river is Jumbuck Hill Park which adjoins Walyunga National Park to the north. While many other rural areas are becoming hemmed in by the suburbs, these wonderful recreational areas on your doorstep can never be built out and will be there to enjoy forever. The home has 3 good sized bedrooms with BIR's and 2 bathrooms, with a 4th room also with BIR currently used as a study. A large, light-filled open plan living and dining area opens out onto the wrap-around verandah, with two huge sliding door windows capturing the views through the trees to the paddocks below. Recycled solid timber floorboards feature throughout the main living areas, with carpet to the bedrooms. A second lounge/parents retreat adjoins the spacious main bedroom with ensuite and walk in robe. This bedroom also has a lovely outlook through a large sliding door window, which leads onto the verandah. The house is elevated 3+ metres which will allow for the area underneath the existing floor to be enclosed, creating extensive additional living space (subject to Council approval). Professionally drafted plans are available or alternatively the space could be enclosed to create a workshop/studio/home office. Recycled materials have been used to landscape the garden areas, which feature native and water-wise plants. Paddocks to the rear of the property are on river loam and the rear boundary fence is coppers log with horse safe fencing. Plenty of safe riding is available with the bridle trail right outside the back gate, leading to the SEC grounds and the extensive trails throughout Brigadoon. In summer when the water is lower you can cross the river bed to access more riding trails on the other side. The SEC is within a 15 minute walk and offers Pony Club, Adult Riding Club, a cross country course and many other facilities.
