Rare Rural Victorian Homestead – Located on City’s Edge! - Viewing by Appointment Only!
It’s what dreams are made of. This is your exclusive chance to secure a truly rare and precious offering! Enjoy and marvel at the sprawling 22,232 sqm / 2.2 Ha landholding in the prime inner-city locale of Banjup, less than 30 minutes south of the Perth CBD.

Nestled in complete cul-de-sac serenity, this amazing property boasts a majestic Victorian-inspired homestead, complete with a separate "Santorini" cottage and a multi-vehicle garage/workshop featuring a mechanic’s hoist – with up to seven cars being able to appease the personal needs of a tradesperson, car-collector or simply a larger family.

Whether you seek a retreat from the urban bustle while still enjoying luxurious living in the serene embrace of nature, or envision transforming this estate into a prestigious hobby farm right at the doorstep of the city, the possibilities here are truly limitless.

Step into a bygone era of elegance and opulence with the Victorian-style main character residence combining intricate details with timeless charm to create a spacious 4 bedroom x 2 bathroom abode that you and your loved ones will absolutely adore. This captivating haven of refined grandeur welcomes you in with an elegant formal lounge room to the right of entry that is reserved for those special occasions, sitting opposite from a spacious master-bedroom suite where separate “his and hers” walk-in wardrobes complement access into a sublime ensuite bathroom – separate toilet, twin central vanities, over-sized shower and all.

The second, third and fourth bedrooms all benefit from their own built-in robes – with the fourth bedroom also enjoying double-door access to and from the wraparound entry verandah. A separate second toilet, a hallway linen cupboard, a contemporary fully-tiled main family bathroom (with a shower and separate claw-foot bathtub) and a versatile home office-come-fifth bedroom – with its own separate external verandah access for clients – completing the separate sleeping quarters that make up the front of the house.

Beyond here, a commodious open-plan family, dining and kitchen area is where most of your casual time will be spent, with two separate sets of double French doors seamlessly extending entertaining out to a fabulous wraparound alfresco at the rear. A walk-in pantry, island breakfast bar, tiled splashbacks and modern stainless-steel range-hood, gas-cooktop, oven and dishwasher complete a chef style kitchen. Welcomed entry into a separate theatre/activity room (or possible formal-dining room) and a connecting laundry off the kitchen – featuring a walk-in linen press, a separate third toilet, storage, outdoor access for drying and internal shopper’s entry via a bonus double lock-up garage, making it secure overall parking for up to nine cars in total.

An enormous lawn/play area for the kids and pets – as well as a shimmering below-ground swimming pool that defines relaxation – separates the home from the 2 bed 1 bath cottage, where potential Airbnb, short-stay-accommodation or multi-generational family living options await. An open-plan kitchen, meals and living area doubles as the perfect entertainment zone for guests, preceding two separate bedrooms, a functional bathroom with a bathtub, showerhead, toilet and vanity and direct entry into the mammoth workshop shed.

This exceptional acreage comes equipped with a host of modern amenities, including a 6.6kw solar unit for energy efficiency, three-phase power, reverse-cycle zoned air-conditioning, bore-reticulated gardens, a sizeable 130,000-litre water tank and enhanced security features – such as monitored perimeter surveillance and an alarm system – with most added as state-of-the-art improvements by the current owners. The grounds also feature a gazebo ideal for hosting weddings and ceremonies under the vines, a duck pen and an area for sheep to roam at the rear of the property, as well as established gardens that are so very easy on the eye.
