7 Mount Street, Bridgetown WA 6255

Such an opportunity.
This pretty and unique 1.62 hectares (4.5 acres) encompasses the Geegelup Brook at the southern end of the Bridgetown townsite.

There are 2 adjoining residences - The traditional character home built in 1888, known as "All view House", is made of unfired bricks and tin roof adjoined by breezeway to a spacious Balinese inspired open plan split-level living area used as a family and entertainment area, with kitchen and laundry. The residences are situated upon an escarpment amid magnificent granite outcrops overlooking the lush fertile valley embracing the Geegelup Brook, which empties into the Blackwood River some 100 metres past the property line.

The traditional home offers all the features reminiscent of our bygone era. The home is essentially un-restored and consists of 6 rooms with a hallway, front and rear verandas, high ceilings, jarrah floorboards with handmade nails, three open fireplaces and three bedrooms. The bathroom holds a large traditional claw-foot bath.

The attached delightful, rammed earth living area (approx. 100m2) has high pitched pine and jarrah ceilings and offers a spacious, light and bright area on 2 levels. The top level incorporates the kitchen and dining area, with storage loft and laundry with shower and toilet. The bottom level is a slate-floored living space with French doors leading to outside decking providing a tranquil spot to enjoy this piece of Natures' paradise.
There is extra storage in the powered cellar under the house.

At the northern end of the property is a large colourbond building connected with water and electrical metered connections separate from the main residences. From 1980 to 2005 a retail nursery and garden centre trading as 'Gardeners Medley' was operated from this building. A maze of formerly landscaped pathways and advanced trees and shrubs extend from the rear of the nursery with many other structures and delightful views.

The land is highly picturesque, and the grounds hold mature pomegranate trees, mulberry and olive trees, a grove of giant bamboo plus many other bird attracting plants. The soils along the valley floor are deep loam and highly fertile.

The property lies within one of the most historical areas of Bridgetown being about 100 metres from at least six other significantly historic buildings such as St Paul's Church, Nelson Lodge, Hampton House, Henrys House, Ford House, and Bridgedale House. The current property was formed from Town Lot 25 which was itself created by Assistant Surveyor T. Campbell Carey in 1868, and the existing house, known as "Allview House", was built in 1888 replacing a split shingle cottage that had previously stood on site.
