The heart of the home is its central open-plan living area - a generous, light-filled space where the kitchen and family room flow naturally into one another and, through glass doors, spill out onto a north-facing patio. A peppercorn tree sways in the breeze beyond the glass, and birds chatter and cavort along the river - it's hard to imagine a more idyllic spot for an alfresco breakfast. In the evenings, the slow-combustion fireplace draws everyone in, casting an amber glow that makes a house feel like a home. A split-system air conditioner means the seasons shift outside without ever disrupting the comfort within.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated. Shaker-style cabinetry brings a quiet elegance, and a cleverly designed extendable island does double duty as breakfast bar and preparation space - the kind of detail you appreciate on a slow Sunday morning with coffee in hand. A new dishwasher and freestanding oven complete a kitchen that is as practical as it is considered.

All three bedrooms open off the central living area, keeping the floorplan connected and intuitive. The first - just off the kitchen - is perfectly proportioned for a nursery or a quiet guest room. The main bedroom is a genuinely restful space, fitted with a full-height wall of storage that keeps clutter out of sight and its own split-system air conditioning for personalised comfort through every season. The third bedroom completes a layout that adapts as readily to a young family as it does to those seeking a weekend base or a considered downsize.

A walk-through laundry connects the living areas to a well-appointed family bathroom with shower, tub and vanity, a separate WC adds everyday practicality.

Outside, a large lot enclosed by new Colorbond fencing offers privacy and real possibility: room for a vegetable garden, scheme water is connected, space for children or dogs to run, or simply the pleasure of owning a generous parcel of land in town. The generous 1534 sqm block on two titles (847 sqm and 687 sqm) provides room to breathe, and the R10/50 zoning offers future flexibility.

Whether you're seeking a weekend escape a short drive from Perth, a rural lifestyle for your young family, or downsizing from a working farm while remaining in a country setting, this property offers an exceptional opportunity. The Colorbond shed, with secure rooms flanking a central open bay, adds practical storage or workshop space; the chicken coop holds the promise of freshly-laid eggs for breakfast.

Toodyay's history remains a living part of its modern identity. This home sits within walking distance of the town centre - a well-serviced country hub with supermarket, pubs, a much-loved bakery and independent shops. The town has become a popular destination for weekend breaks and day trips, with vintage car clubs among its regular visitors. During the Avon Descent, the river becomes a focal point for the community and visitors alike. The historic streetscapes, with their carefully preserved buildings and character, tell stories of the pastoral era, whilst the Avon River continues to shape the landscape and lifestyle of this enduring settlement.
