The entry opens to a generous glazed built-in robe, which is perfect for storing coats, shoes and jackets. The fully tiled living area, with 2.7m high ceilings, creates a feeling of space, while the doubled glazed windows make the home feel calm and quiet. The home consists of three comfortable bedrooms, all with mirrored built-in robes, and a study/activity room with a generous lockable storeroom that could double as a WIR if you decided to use it for an additional, fourth bedroom. The master bedroom is on the northern wing of the house, while the other bedrooms are set on the southern end of the property. All southern rooms are built with smaller windows to keep these areas cool in the summer. The bedroom floors, hallway and activity room are lined with cork for a soft, natural and comfortable feel.

The semi-open living area consists of a sun room, kitchen, dining area and lounge room. The ergonomically designed kitchen provides plenty of bench space. The double sink and preparation area are nestled behind a long counter top that is the perfect platform for displaying plants or bowls of fruit. Locally recycled jarrah cupboards are capped with quality caesar-stone bench tops. The jarrah motif continues throughout the home with newly laid skirting boards , along with timber framed doors. The kitchen has a walk-in pantry, induction cooktop and electric fan-forced oven. Space and electrics for a dishwasher are integrated. To top it off, the kitchen overlooks a small pond and the sound of bubbling water lingers in the background as you prepare meals.

Two bathrooms are located at opposite ends of the house: one to service the three bedrooms and the other for everyday use. The laundry is near the west side of the house, with easy access to the clothes line. All wet areas have quality fittings and caesar stone bench tops. There is plenty of storage throughout the home, including two linen presses, storage in the entry and a 6 x 2 metre mezzanine floor in the roof cavity.

Underfloor heating keeps the house at a comfortable temperature throughout the cooler months, if the sun doesn't shine. Independent heat zones enable you to heat the main living areas, bathrooms and activity room separately. However, due to the insulation in the walls, roof cavity and under the slab - along with the double glazing - only one zone usually needs to be heated up during winter months. The home is powered by a 3 KW photovoltaic system, with an individual inverter for each panel to maximise energy generation. The installation of a solar battery would further enhance this home's eco-friendly credentials.

Lighting has been carefully considered with LED lights carefully positioned in the living and outdoor areas. All internal doors are either solid core, fire retardant doors or glass to allow natural light further into the home.

A new 270 litre hot water heat pump has been recently installed. The home is served by a 20 thousand litre rainwater tank that is plumbed into the home, providing filtered water for two thirds of the year. When the rainwater runs low, it automatically switches to mains water. The garden is fully reticulated and hydrates a range of plants, including natives, vegetables and fruit trees, such as citrus, strawberry guavas, feijoas, black sapote, persimmon, blueberries and a native macadamia nut tree.

A 3m x 3m garden shed sits at the rear of the property; with the whole property on three phrase power to satisfy any handyperson. There are many other hidden features to this house worth seeing.

If you desire to live on the west side of town, want to be within walking distance to facilities and services, are keen to invest in a home offering eco-friendly and sustainable credentials, then this property is for you.
