Charming 1920 Character Home on a Country Acreage
Nestled away at the peaceful river end of Roe Street, this 1920 character residence offers a wonderful tree change opportunity on a massive 6,623m2 of land that once served as one of the original orchards of the area. Having recently undergone a complete renovation that introduces fresh, modern comforts while beautifully preserving its timeless country history, the estate provides a gorgeous blend of old and new. From the dark weatherboard exterior and wide front verandah to the classic sash windows and original colored glass doors and door surrounds at both the front and back entrances, the home welcomes you with immediate warmth.
Inside, authentic jarrah floorboards pair with high ceilings, new lighting throughout, and classic pressed tin features that stand out in the lounge room and kitchen. The central living space flows easily around an original double aspect brick fireplace and features a new R/C A/C for year round comfort. The brand new kitchen balances a rustic look with modern dark cabinetry, striking faux marble countertops, a deep farmhouse sink, and views across the garden landscape. A dedicated study or home office makes a classic statement with deep toned walls, pressed tin details, and plenty of natural light.
Throughout the home, original internal Oregon doors add to the historic character. The home's layout includes a two-storey addition that accommodates a brand new bathroom and two bedrooms, while a third lower bedroom, featuring elegant French doors, remains nestled within the home's original core. Upstairs, the master bedroom is equipped with its own new R/C A/C and opens to a private balcony that takes in elevated views of Bridgetown's rolling hills. Practical interior additions also include a dedicated cellar and storage room.
Adding incredible versatility to the property, the previous boat shed has been converted into a self contained studio. Fully insulated and equipped with a split system A/C, and a modern wet area pod, this space functions perfectly as a private one bedroom retreat for guests, or extended family.
The acreage is ideal for anyone seeking space and privacy, offering panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. Adding further value, the generous block also offers the potential to be subdivided, subject to Shire approval. Situated approximately 500m from the banks of the Blackwood River and approximately 950m from the bustling main street, it effortlessly balances rural seclusion with town convenience. The fully fenced grounds are newly secured with electric fencing on three sides and feature three distinct access points to the property. Outside, you will find a beautifully designed French potager-style vegetable garden complete with a water feature and a wrought iron garden arch, alongside a dedicated chook run. Storage is well catered for with a 20ft shipping container. Whether you are looking for a peaceful country lifestyle or a character filled property to move straight into and enjoy, 59 Roe Street offers space, updates, and potential in a highly regarded location.
