Set on Farmview Drive – the name a nod to the area’s history – this home still echoes the rural lifestyle once the norm, thanks to the expanse of open space extending along the banks of the meandering Helena River. Occupying a level, easy-care site, the skilfully updated home boasts a renovated kitchen, bathroom and laundry featuring bright, neutral interiors ready to be personalised with your unique style.
A paved drive leads to a carport with gates to access the fully fenced backyard. The front door opens into a bright lounge with a restrained palette of colours and materials. Light-tone timber-look floors, white walls, and dual-aspect glazing ensure a luminous and inviting space for relaxing and socialising. Part of a partially open-plan design, the lounge flows into a well-proportioned meals area and compact, yet perfectly formed kitchen.
The kitchen consists of an L-shaped benchtop and integrated breakfast bar, an integrated dishwasher, and an pyrolytic oven and an induction cooktop. Crisp white overhead cabinets are a striking contrast to the blackboard-grey cupboards fitted under the benchtop. Adjoining the kitchen is a practical study/work nook with a large window looking across the rear verandah to the backyard. Split system AC, gas bayo and a gas heater in the lounge/open plan keep this central living zone comfortable year-round.
Two large bedrooms sit with views over the front garden, both have built-in robes, whilst the third overlooks the rear courtyard – all feature timber-look floors and a light, neutral palette of colours. They share the fully tiled renovated bathroom with a vanity and a walk-in shower. A separate WC is situated off the renovated walk-through laundry.
A sliding door links the kitchen/meals area to the sheltered rear verandah, a paved space with room for seating and a table. It is the perfect spot for entertaining or enjoying alfresco dining with family and friends. A level lawn offers space for kids and pets to run and play, and a small garden shed is a handy storage space for gardening tools and equipment. Those with a green thumb will appreciate the small rainwater tank as a supplemental water source for the garden.
This property puts riverside walks and outdoor adventures on the agenda, but it’s not only a pastoral lifestyle on offer. Bellevue also boasts excellent access to the City of Midland and beyond. Good road and public transport links, as well as John Forrest National Park and the Heritage Trail, deliver a well-rounded lifestyle by the banks of the Helena River.
