8 Balga Place Gooseberry Hill WA 6076

Privately positioned at the end of a tightly held Gooseberry Hill cul-de-sac and backing directly onto the protected Quenda Creek Nature Reserve, this classic late mid-century residence offers a rare combination of tranquillity, outlook and opportunity. Set on a generous and predominantly level 2,378sqm block, the elevated home captures leafy outlooks along with twinkling lights at night, adding a magical touch to the peaceful bushland setting.

Built in 1969, the home retains the warmth, proportions and character of its era while presenting a beautifully comfortable home. A welcoming entry leads inside to light-filled interiors where a soft white palette is paired with warm timber elements and classic mid-century window frames. Large windows and sliding doors draw in natural light throughout the day, creating a strong connection to the surrounding bushland and enhancing the home's relaxed Hills atmosphere.

The heart of the home provides a warm and inviting setting for everyday living, with the kitchen, dining and living areas flowing outside to a freestanding covered entertaining area, perfectly positioned to enjoy treetop outlooks and evening lights. The well-appointed kitchen features granite benchtops, an island bench, ILVE gas cooker with electric oven, a Miele dishwasher and a breakfast bar.

A spacious living room is warmed by an open fireplace and complemented by reverse-cycle air conditioning, providing a welcoming space to unwind year-round. Adjoining the living area, a games room or activity room offers additional space for family living, entertaining or relaxation.
The accommodation wing comprises a main bedroom with built-in robes and a private ensuite, while two additional bedrooms, one with built-in robes, are serviced by the main bathroom. A laundry with external access and an additional separate toilet add further practicality to the layout.

A separate home office provides an ideal space for remote work, creative pursuits or added flexibility. The property also includes a single carport with garage door, an adjoining workshop or storage space, and a separate 4x4m shed.
Outdoors, the size and predominantly level layout of the block offers excellent scope for future enhancements, including a granny flat, swimming pool or larger workshop (STCA), as well as the potential to create rear access if desired. A practical U-shaped driveway provides easy access, additional parking and everyday convenience.

Backing directly onto the nature reserve and surrounded by established trees, the home enjoys exceptional privacy and a genuine Hills lifestyle. Conveniently located just minutes from Gooseberry Hill Village, Kalamunda town centre, local schools, walking trails and the Bickley Valley wineries, and approximately 30 minutes to the Perth CBD and 15 minutes to the airport, this tightly held location continues to be highly sought after.

Whether you choose to simply enjoy the home as it is or gently enhance it over time, this is a rare opportunity to secure a peaceful bushland retreat with enduring mid-century character in one of Gooseberry Hill's most desirable pockets.
