70 Nelson Street

In a world with more than eight billion people, finding your own little piece of space can be a hard thing to do. But every now and then, an opportunity comes along that lets you be close enough to everything you need, while still feeling like you've got the world to yourself. Set on two and a half acres, this is a first-rate opportunity to buy a little more freedom. The freedom to think. The freedom to breathe. The freedom to have a veggie patch that feeds more than one person. And simply the freedom to enjoy…a bit of freedom. This beautifully renovated four-bedroom, two-bathroom home is undoubtedly one of the best opportunities anywhere on the market right now. The photos capture just a little of the lifestyle that's on offer, but a visit to see it for yourself will let you experience just how appealing it really is. LIVING HERE The floor plan shows you a lot more detail about what goes where and how it all fits together, so I won't yammer on about every room right here. If you'd like the more immersive, long-winded version, check out the video tour and see just how everything clicks. Life in this home centres around the kitchen, meals and lounge, all of which open onto that beautiful big balcony at the front, where you're eye level with the trees and perfectly positioned to enjoy this stunning rural outlook. The kitchen really is a standout feature. There's a delightful sense of welcome within this design, and it just feels like the sort of place where everyone naturally wants to gather. It's perfectly set up to cater for a crowd, with the big Belling five-burner stove and multi compartment oven taking pride of place. There's excellent storage, along with a butler's pantry that keeps everything close at hand. And I have a sneaking suspicion that on a property like this, even if you're not yet, The algorithm of life will probably persuade you to get on the sourdough bandwagon, and very quickly. The de-hydrating, jarring, and preserving things will just start happening. Whilst it's not a legal obligation I think it's just what happens. Anyway... back to the point. This kitchen is perfectly set up for exactly that kind of lifestyle. The stunning timber floors throughout the home are original, and the character of this design, with its high skirting boards and beautiful timber features, really is something special. The lounge room features a fireplace and, thanks to the way the home has been designed, it all takes in that beautiful outlook. When I say "designed", I don't know whether there was some stroke of architectural genius involved. It's probably more that it would have been downright foolish to build a house that didn't point towards such an attractive aspect. The bedrooms are superb. The main bedroom features a large walk-in wardrobe and a beautiful ensuite bathroom. It's a lovely retreat, and while this is very much a home designed around everyone coming together, it's nice to have a peaceful space to slip away to at the end of the day. The secondary bedrooms are all an excellent size, and occupants of any age should be delighted with what's on offer. The bedroom with the built-in bunk bed is particularly special, complete with its own walk-in wardrobe. It's such a cool room. The main bathroom is gorgeous, featuring a clawfoot bath and a picturesque outlook across the property. Everything about this space just ticks the boxes. There's also a large study with built-in desks and shelving. It's the ideal place to let homework be homework and family time be family time. If you'd rather not have the kitchen table covered in books and school projects, this is a brilliant solution. And if you work from home, it's equally well suited as a dedicated office. OUTSIDE The property has been beautifully cared for and is well set up if you'd like a couple of animals. There's a paddock at the front which, with a little bit of work, would make a fantastic horse paddock. There are some magnificent mature trees around the block as well. Honestly, you can see it for yourself in the photos and the video. It's just a beautiful place to be. The pool is perfectly positioned to become the hub of activity every summer. You can keep an eye on it from both the kitchen and the entertaining area, and it's a fantastic big concrete pool that's sure to create plenty of family memories. The property is serviced by rainwater, which is great because once you start baking your own sourdough and preserving your own fruit, you probably stop trusting the government... and there's no way you're drinking that fluoride stuff. WHERE IT IS It's an incredible location, right on the doorstep of Bungendore Park, with so much natural beauty surrounding you. Wungong Dam is just up the road, Southern Hills Christian College is only minutes away, and you're only moments from Albany Highway, making it a quick drive to shops, cafés, restaurants and all the everyday services you could need. Even if you're not familiar with the area, allow yourself a little extra time after inspecting the home. Take a drive through Bungendore Park, head along Churchman Brook Road into Roleystone, and experience just how special this part of Perth really is.
