This Mount Helena home was designed according to the principles of Maharishi Sthapatya Veda - a 5,000-year-old architectural science that aligns a building's orientation, room placement and proportions with the rhythms of the natural world. You don't need to be a devotee to appreciate the outcome: a house that is exceptionally well-considered, filled with natural light and quietly easy to live in. 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms 2017-built Brick and C/bond Impeccable proportions Multiple living spaces Vast eat-in cook's kitchen Media room, study, studio Tank, solar, Colorbond shed 2-car garage adjoining gym 5-acre fenced and gated lot Beautifully presented Some homes just feel right. The light is better, the rooms make sense, the day seems to move more easily within them. The east-facing aspect of this elevated home brings unobstructed sunrise views from the wide verandahs and principal rooms. The neutral palette, the restrained material selection, the solid bamboo flooring that runs across most of the plan: all of it produces interiors that are simultaneously energising and calm. At the centre of the plan is a generous family room anchored by a Brahmasthan - a point drawn from Vedic tradition and said to channel positive energy through the home. This is a room - a house - that feels good to be in. The eat-in kitchen is an excellent space - long benchtops, deep storage drawers, fitted cabinetry, a 900 mm oven, an induction cooktop, a dishwasher, and two pantries. East and west windows frame treetop views and keep the room bright throughout the day. A large laundry with built-in storage and a separate WC sits just off the kitchen, practical and well-resolved. The principal suite offers dual-aspect glazing, a large fitted walk-in robe, and an ensuite with a double vanity, shower, and WC. The remaining bedrooms each have fitted robes and good windows; they share a family bathroom with a shower, a tub, and a double vanity, plus a separate powder room. Across the eastern face of the home, a series of multi-purpose rooms speaks to the reality of contemporary family life. A dedicated media room opens onto a home office with direct access to the verandah. A formal sitting room and adjoining studio with dual-aspect glazing complete the picture - adaptable to whoever calls this home and however their needs evolve. Ten-zone ducted air conditioning and a slow-combustion fireplace manage the climate year-round. Outside, the 5-acre lot is fenced, gated and quietly productive. A 135,000-litre rainwater tank supplies the house and feeds reticulation, including a small orchard planted with mango, guava, pineapple and mandarin. A Colorbond workshop sits separately from the remote-entry double garage and its adjoining gym. The infrastructure is in place; the country lifestyle is ready to begin. The location adds further appeal. Mount Helena Primary School is moments away, Eastern Hills Senior High School serves the older years, Mundaring Primary and Christian Schools along with the Steiner Schools in nearby Parkerville offer further options - a notably rare convenience in a semi-rural setting. Mundaring's shops, cafés and services are around 15 minutes away, Midland around 20, Perth Airport around 30 minutes in the other direction, and the Perth CBD within approximately 40 minutes. Close enough to access everything, far enough to leave it all behind. To arrange an inspection of this property, call Lee Nangle - 0427 202 366.
