1596 Millbrook Road King River WA 6330

Experience the ultimate in country living on this breathtaking property enjoying over 100m of frontage to the beautiful King River. The 2.24 acre estate boasts a stunning 1890's stone home in addition to a self-contained cottage, standalone games room, chalet, and generous shed/workshops, all set amongst beautifully landscaped gardens with views over the burbling river. It is not often you get to secure your very own river frontage, let alone with such an amazing swathe of buildings in such an extraordinary setting – this is rare real estate indeed.

The jewel in the crown here is the original settlers home, constructed of stone and iron by Captain Skinner in 1896, and one of the oldest stone homes in the area. This is an incredible building, with whitewashed walls and wide verandahs creating an imposing and impressive façade, and beautiful spacious rooms with 12-foot ceilings and garden views bringing a warm and inviting atmosphere you only feel in buildings that have been loved for this long. The home is a lovely mix of character and modernity, with footworn floorboards and ornate plasterwork complemented by a huge modern kitchen and fabulous bathrooms. Enjoy sitting by the wonderful open fire in the formal lounge, entertaining friends with dinner parties in the formal dining, or retire to separate TV lounge. Three large and airy bedrooms are complemented by an enormous library; this was previously two bedrooms so if you need extra space for the family it is possible to revert to a five-bedroom configuration. Outside, you will love the sweeping verandah with tonnes of space for tables and chairs and plenty of people, a brilliant space to relax or entertain while you soak up the serenity and enjoy the birds flitting in the garden.

Situated apart from the main home and in its own private area, a double brick two-bed cottage offers a high quality and eminently comfortable alternative for friends and family, and/or a bit of extra income. This is a lovely second dwelling that has been extensively renovated and offers a modern and large lounge, spacious kitchen, and meals area, as well as a separate driveway and private parking. This is perfect for intergenerational family living, for friends and guests, or to derive income.

Again located separately, a standalone games room provides space for a game of snooker, darts, or general entertaining, and there is also garaging for four cars, plus a large workshop with ample bench and storage space.

The grounds themselves are something to behold, with lawns, beds, and tall timber inviting you to amble and relax, while you meander down to the river's edge. You will see plenty of birds and maybe a bandicoot or two. Throw in a line, launch a kayak, or just relax as the river bubbles past – this is your haven to enjoy.
