Magnificent Hilltop Farming Estate
"Weemala" is located just east of Mount Barker in the Shire of Plantagenet, well known for its mountain vistas and vineyards in the foothills. "Weemala" means 'expansive view' and on your first visit to the property, situated up the hill from one of the vineyards, the view will as they say, take your breath away.The home was built by the current owner in 1995 to a bespoke design incorporating the best ideas and techniques from an earlier time and blended with modern touches to create an outstanding family home that compliments the magnificence of the site.
Set in a colourful country garden with picket fence and arbour, unusually for a country residence, visitors are guided to the ornate, lead lighted front door.
Once inside the home the hand-built jarrah staircase catches the eye, while the visitor is welcomed into the main hall, off which leads the formal lounge room with open fireplace and its antique hearth surround.
The ground floor also features a formal dining room, country kitchen with quality wood fired stove, pantry and informal dining room, a comfortably sized office, the laundry where extensive cabinetry has been installed and beyond the laundry the downstairs bathroom.
Take the stairs to the first floor where the jarrah flooring continues along the hallway to each of the five bedrooms, one of which is currently utilised as a sewing room.
The master suite features an open fireplace and a large ensuite with clawfoot bath and shower. There is a third bathroom leading from the upstairs hallway to service the other rooms.
Visitors to the home are always impressed with the obvious quality of the build and attention to detail of the design. Mainly jarrah timber was used in the framing of the home supplemented where appropriate by treated pine. The details of the construction will be supplied to new owners upon request.
The thoughtful design continues to the outbuildings where the 63m2 garage has a 57m2 recreation room above it. A timber framed, lockup workshop with concrete floor, power connected separate workroom and loft storage has been located just far enough down the hill to be out of sight but still near enough to easily access.
A bonus feature of this property is the private airfield located on the lower slopes north-east of the house and including a purpose built timber framed aircraft hangar with lockup sliding doors and concrete floor. The hangar has been built to fit most single engine personal aircraft. Should buyers wish to fly in to inspect the property coordinates for the airstrip are available from the Agent.
Weemala is also a commercial farming property. Comprising four contiguous lots with a total area of some 284 hectares (701 acres). Of this area much has been cleared and pastured with the farm currently easily supporting a mob of 1,000 breeding ewes and their lambs. The property is well fenced for sheep and benefits from an ongoing fence replacement program. A laneway system makes moving stock between the paddocks and the two sets of yards easy. There is a three stand shearing shed with ample undercover space for a day's sheep and a near new steel framed machinery shed nearby. The shearing and machinery sheds can be accessed from a separate road entrance.
This magnificent property is unique in size, style and location.
