ENJOY the enviable lifestyle and luxury of space that comes from owning a grand country home and more than 50 acres of prime farmland.
The owners designed and built their dream home with painstaking attention to detail and no expense spared about 10 years ago.
At more than 374 square metres of internal living space and more than 607m2 under the main roof, including a garage and verandahs, this is not your typical farmhouse and something very special indeed.
Situated 14 kilometres from the thriving town of Donnybrook and 18km from the much-loved town of Balingup, the property sits in one of the most picturesque parts of the South West.
Access to the property is off Newlands Road with the South West Highway within 1km.
The house and gardens are perched relatively high on the landscape, providing spectacular views of the property and surrounding valley.
Soils are of particularly high quality, with the arable area cropped to oats for hay in 2021.
Two 90,000 litre rainwater tanks service the water needs of the house and a 120,000L tank, that fills from the dam, waters the lawns and garden.
Any cook will appreciate the huge kitchen, with excellent storage and bench space, island bench and 900 millimetre freestanding oven and spacious open plan meals area.
A large family room, formal dining area, lounge and outdoor entertaining area all surround the beautiful kitchen, making it the true heart of the home.
Bedrooms are all of a very generous size, in particular, the main bedroom which has an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe, retreat zone and direct access to the verandahs.
Three other bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and share a big bathroom with a claw foot bath and separate shower.
Some other features include the large library, storeroom and massive studio which could be used as a small business office, additional accommodation or activity room.
The home has a flexible layout that could suit multiple living scenarios or business opportunities, making an excellent B&B for example (subject to any necessary applications and approvals).
There is a 16 metre x 10m x 3.7m high Highline-built shed with four doors and drive-through access for a caravan.
This may just be the country retreat you have been searching so hard for.
