271 Grey St W, Mount Melville WA 6330, Australia
High on Mt Melville, just 1.5km from Albany’s CBD, this exclusive two-storey home takes in an amazing panoramic outlook and promises an enviable lifestyle for the discerning new owners.
Classy modernisation of the main living space has transformed the 2001 building into a contemporary, open and sunny home, entirely in keeping with the demands of today’s families, while retaining beautiful standout features such as the karri floors and staircase.
This is exemplified by the striking charcoal kitchen, a beautifully appointed workspace featuring high-spec appliances and numerous well-considered design features.
Careful planning and extensive glazing have maximised the view around from the wind farm, over Princess Royal Harbour and out towards the sailing club and Torndirrup National Park – an outlook that can be enjoyed from almost every room as well as decks on both levels.
Family members will be spoilt for choice when finding their own space. On the lower level is the family room adjoining the dining area. Here, a Scandinavian-style wood fire heats the whole space and the flue is exposed to diffuse heat to a generous second living room on the floor above.
There’s also a sizeable activity or hobby room, an office or gym and extensive decking on three sides providing sheltered options for relaxing and entertaining outdoors.
All the bedrooms open onto the deck, and three have air conditioning.
The downstairs bedroom has a semi-en suite shower room and toilet, also accessed from the hallway.
Two built-in robes and an en suite shower room feature in the king-sized master bedroom on the first floor. Two of the family bedrooms have en suite shower rooms and built-in robes. There’s a fifth bedroom, which is ideal for guests, and a private spa room.
The laundry has been cleverly incorporated into a concealed space within the big double garage and there’s stylish bespoke cabinetry for shoes and coats inside the impressive main entrance.
The 1240sqm block is terraced with a level lawn, several fruit trees and a freestanding shed in the back yard, while bush reserve and the Bibbulmun Track at the front ensure privacy.
A water softener, 24 solar panels and two rainwater tanks with UV filters are notable advantages for comfort and economy.
A home of this quality on a big block close to town is a rare find, and this one promises an abundance of lifestyle benefits to delight the fussiest of buyers.
