Description
Set beneath the generous canopy of a mature tree, this family home demonstrates how considered design can accommodate the evolving rhythms of domestic life. The architecture employs a disciplined material palette – blackbutt and ceramic tile flooring, soft greys and whites across walls and high ceilings, modern neutrals in the Matrix kitchen – to create a coherent spatial narrative that balances formality with ease in an accessible, adaptable design.

The plan is organised around a central open-plan living zone, with formal and informal spaces at its heart and a clear separation of private realms: junior bedrooms occupy one wing, the principal suite the other. This zoning extends outdoors, where the interior flows seamlessly to an alfresco area beneath a timber-lined gable roof.
The approach is through a terraced front garden enclosed by low fencing. An east-facing verandah leads to the entry, where double doors open onto a tiled foyer. Blackbutt floors define the formal lounge and dining rooms, continuing through to a home office with wraparound desk – positioned to overlook the private rear garden – and into the northern wing’s principal suite. Dual-aspect glazing draws natural light deep into the formal spaces, amplifying the restrained tonal palette.
A sliding door reveals the home’s central living zone: a light-filled kitchen, meals and activity area beneath high ceilings, detailed with wainscoting and serviced by split and ducted air conditioning. A slow-combustion fireplace anchors the space. Porcelain tiles flow across the kitchen and meals area, giving way to carpet in a panelled TV room that opens to the east-facing verandah – an ideal spot for morning coffee.
The kitchen is finished in soft mushroom cabinetry with Caesarstone benchtops that echo this neutral tone. Appliances include a new steam oven, an electric cooktop and a dishwasher. A bay window frames views to the outdoor entertaining area, accessible through double doors that open to an alfresco zone, spa and a timber-decked gazebo around a central lawn.
The junior wing demonstrates a restrained approach to material and colour. White walls and grey tones establish a calm atmosphere across three carpeted bedrooms, each with built-in storage. The bathroom is fitted to spa standard, with a soaking tub, walk-in shower and brass tapware. Even the laundry – equipped with fitted washer and dryer – has been considered as part of the home’s coherent aesthetic.
At the northern end, the principal suite comprises a bedroom with blackbutt flooring, a generous ensuite with an accessible shower and a separate WC, and a fitted walk-in wardrobe. A sliding door opens directly onto a private paved patio – a secluded outdoor room screened from view.
External stairs descend to a substantial 9m x 18m workshop at the rear, a separate storage room and a high-clearance carport. Accessed via a side driveway, the space is configured for workshop use or secure storage of larger vehicles. A ramp allows for step-free access to the gardens and shed.
The property combines well-proportioned living areas, both formal and relaxed, with considered outdoor spaces for entertaining and retreat. A timber-framed workshop, automatic reticulation and 5kW solar array add practical value. High-specification finishes throughout reflect an attention to detail that extends from material selection to presentation.
Minutes from the heart of Mundaring, within walking distance of schools and ideally situated for weekends spent exploring the trails and sights of the Perth Hills, this family home accommodates the full spectrum of domestic life.
