Forest 'feel' with suburban comforts
Living at 67 Albert Street, Kendall feels as close as you can get to living in the forest, while still enjoying the everyday comforts of home. Set in a peaceful pocket of town, surrounded by the natural beauty of nearby State Forests, this is a home where the soundtrack is birdsong, the pace is calmer, and the outlook feels wonderfully connected to nature.
This special part of Albert Street enjoys an ever-changing daily visitation from local wildlife. Superb fairy-wrens bob through the garden, black cockatoos fly overhead and squabble in nearby trees, and kookaburras, butcher birds and magpies laugh and warble, adding to the dawn chorus. Wallabies are regular visitors too, with a family effectively calling this block and the adjoining forest home - a rare privilege to watch them come and go through the seasons and see them grow from tiny joeys to healthy speedy adults.
Inside, the home continues the natural warmth of its setting, with pine timber floors flowing through the living and kitchen areas. The modern kitchen has clearly been built with the chef in mind, featuring a large island bench, dual sink, gas oven and gas cooktop, creating a generous and highly practical workspace for everyday cooking or entertaining.
The floor plan offers excellent flexibility, with a huge study that was once two bedrooms and has since been opened up to create one expansive room. For buyers needing extra accommodation, a wall could comfortably be reinstated to create two bedrooms again, subject to any required approvals or building considerations.
The main bedroom suite enjoys a beautiful northern outlook, direct access to the large timber deck, and its own ensuite. The second bedroom also has direct access to the main bathroom, making it ideal for guests or family members seeking added convenience.
A standout feature of the home is the large north-facing timber deck, perfectly positioned to take in the forest views and regular wildlife visitors. Whether it is morning coffee, afternoon shade, or quiet evenings listening to the birds, this is a space that captures the lifestyle on offer.
Adding to the practicality are a three-car carport and generous subfloor storage options, providing excellent space for vehicles, tools, outdoor gear or hobby equipment.
The current owners moved here from their certified organic and biodynamic citrus farm nearby and have continued that same care for the land. The soil has been maintained without the use of toxic herbicides or pesticides, helping support the abundance of birdlife and wildlife that makes this property so unique.
The home is connected to town water, while also benefiting from a 22,500 litre rainwater tank, with both water sources plumbed in for use. The absence of street lights and the lack of traffic noise on this sealed road, that dwindles a little further on to a gravel forest access road, enhance the forest feel, while town power, NBN connection and easy access to Kendall's local conveniences ensure you can enjoy the forest-like setting without sacrificing modern comforts.
At the end of the cul-de-sac, approximately 200m away, you can access the State Forest, while Kendall village is just over 1km from home. Kew Country Club and Golf Course is approximately 3.7km away, and the coast is also within easy reach.
