A pleasant drive to the Margaret River wine region and the powdery white beaches of Geographe Bay, a magnificent tree change lifestyle awaits. Situated in Gelorup on approx. 167 acres (zoned special rural with sub-division potential), this property offers a rural lifestyle that feels so far removed from the hurly burly of city life and yet is so close to all amenities and the CBD.
Tucked away down a country road, the long driveway winds past seasonal lakes and freshwater swamps. It's rife with local bird species, kangaroos, possums and even the occasional phascogale. Enjoy the family of Splendid Wrens that frequent the garden around the homestead and the semi domesticated magpies that visit daily.
This home is a retreat. Its welcoming warmth extends to all who enter this feel good family home with its rich timber finishes and abundance of natural light. Relax on the wide verandah, overlooking the main lawn. The homestead is set in cleared woodland and lush South West bushland. Enjoy the privacy and uninterrupted views, without a neighbour's roof in sight. Soak in the great expanse of ever-changing skies, the golden glow of the gum trees at sunset and the early morning mist.
The 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home and it's surrounds, have been lovingly developed over the owner's nearly 60 years at the property.
Features include a family kitchen with postcard views of the spoonbills and swans, across the main lawn and gardens which are reticulated off a bore.
The double garage and single carport provide direct access to the home.
The master bedroom has an ensuite. The second bedroom is a standard size but the third bedroom is as large as the master. The fourth bedroom is located upstairs.
The spacious lounge room features a magnificient slate rock wall which encloses the gigantic slow combustion wood fire, which also boosts the solar hot water system. There is also a reverse cycle air conditioner for year-round comfort at the push of a button. The large draped windows invite the rural landscape in.
The upstairs games/media room is equipped with a bar, dart board and pool table. Here, you will also find the fourth bedroom tucked away with uninterrupted views of the seasonal lake.
The property boasts a 20,000 gallon rainwater tank, windmill and bore, which provides ample water to the extensive vegetable gardens and fenced/netted orchards. A chicken run helps maintain the wonderful variety of apples, citrus and stone fruit.
Solar panels contribute to the low impact lifestyle.
There are numerous sheds placed to the rear of the property, so you have option anxiety for your caravan, boat, trailer and hobby space needs.
Set away from the main house, the caretaker's cottage (needs TLC) includes a bedroom, kitchen, laundry, bathroom and a living/dining room with a pot belly. A massive shed is located next to this building.
Space and tranquility are yours for the taking. This is the property you will NOT want to leave.
