Space to build, space to grow and space to raise a family. This highly desirable Parkerville property has it all. A three-bedroom post-war cottage needing attention could be transformed into a landmark Hills property, or the mostly level 5.5-acre lot has ample space to build a new home with the existing home providing onsite accommodation.
High ceilings, monumental granite mantles hewn of stone from the local quarry and original casement windows all provide a starting point for the transformation of the existing cottage. The formal lounge, dining room, and adjoining sunroom offer flexible living space, while the high-ceiling bedrooms are spacious, and the bathroom is well-appointed with a bathtub, shower and a separate WC. The entire cottage requires love and attention, but with imagination and hard work, it could become a unique Hills home.
Various old fruit trees hint at the property’s history and a time when self-sufficiency was a way of life. The lot is a regular shape with a 60-metre frontage and extending westward. The cottage and powered shed sit towards the front, with a large paddock behind and a natural bush at the rear boundary.
No matter the path taken, this Parkerville property is impressive and bursting with potential. Minutes from the bustling village of Mundaring and well situated for access to a selection of schools, the property has great connections to arterial roads. It puts the beauty and adventure of the Perth Hills on your doorstep.
