You’ve been asking and waiting for the perfect lil lifestyle property to come onto the market for sale. Your wait is over. Take a look at 40 O’Driscoll Street.
It’s situated less than 2km from the Bakers Hill townsite where you’ll find its famous Pie Shop, a country pub and other services such as Post Office, Vet, hardware, fuel servo. Need more? Head East 27km to Northam town centre or West 55km to Midland.
At 1.15ha the block is just under 3ac, elevated near the roadside and gently undulating down to the back paddock. It’s connected to the scheme water supply but also has oodles of water caught from the outbuilding roofs in 5 rainwater tanks and there’s a ground water bore too, just needs the pump connected.
Speaking of outbuildings, you’ll go ape when you see the Colorbond sheds. One looks to be about 14 x 7m and the other about 7 x 12m, have really high trusses and power connected. There’s an orchard too covered with bird netting.
What about the main attraction… the house. It was built in 2001 of Hardieplank & Zincalume, is set to higher part of the land and is oriented with the back door to the roadside and the front door and verandah overlooking the lower, rear portions of the block. It has an open plan kitchen/meals with loads of natural light entering through the many windows. This area, and the lounge room with split system air conditioner, feel very roomy given the vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and French windows to the front verandah.
A passage off the open plan area leads to three bedrooms, with BIRs and the main having a another split system air cond, the bathroom, laundry and toilet.
The earth driveway from the front gate turns onto a massive expanse of brick paving under the right-side drying court, which could be used as a carport for additional car parking space, and continues through the rear gable roof patio.
There’s a lot to love about 40 O’Driscoll Street and you’ll probably kick yourself if you miss out. Call Steve Hill or Courtney Hughes for an inspection.
