Down a long and lovely driveway, a large family home unfolds to a wide open North facing aspect beautifully positioned to take full advantage of 1287sqm of garden paradise. This is a home where privacy reigns supreme! Situated at the city end of our iconic Fendalton Rd, amongst many other magnificent properties old and new, almost on the doorstep of Hagley Park, this location is hard to better, with all the very best schooling yours as of right and plenty of private options too of course.
Built in brick mid last century, our owners have been here for the last three decades and completed a substantial extension and renovation a little more than ten years ago. Accommodation now includes three vast living areas, separate but linking, five bedrooms including a guest suite with bathroom, an outdoor entertaining room, and at least five car garaging. Both fully carpeted, the bigger, drive through garage has plenty of room for four cars plus bikes and storage on the side, and a workshop, while the other is almost a double. There is plenty of parking for extra vehicles as well as a secure area behind gates to house a trailer, boat or camper.
This is a most sociable home! Facilities permit a varying array of occupants, permanent or by invitation. An entertainers paradise, indoor and outdoor living options are plentiful and diverse. Each living area opens up to the outdoors, and a long and wide kitchen island is a central hub and bound to become a gathering place! Looking over the pool, the 'party room' as the owners affectionately refer to it, is set up for year round activity with a huge open fire, built in kitchen, and is fully covered with some opening louvres. The expanse of lawn is framed by a superb Copper Beech and a lovely Liquid Amber in the other corner. A charming 'Potager' sits elegantly at one end. Natural Kwila decking surrounds the house on this side and a pergola draped with Wisteria provides shade when most needed. Upstairs, all the bedrooms have a light and bright outlook, are sun-drenched and two open onto a balcony above the Wisteria below. Diesel powered radiators heat the home throughout in Winter.
Large parcels of land are a diminishing commodity in our most exclusive suburbs, and we seldom find such a private, quiet and secluded situation. This is a feat increasingly difficult to replicate and only available now because this family are at the age and stage of 'rightsizing'. We believe this is a rare opportunity and advise viewing. You won't be disappointed!
