50 Echoveld Close, Mardella.

There are very few places where you can still secure 10 acres, live at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac and enjoy the openness of a protected lifestyle estate, while remaining this close to one of Perth's fastest-growing urban corridors. That balance is what makes this property so compelling. Set within a Rural Smallholding zoned lifestyle estate on the metropolitan fringe, it offers the privacy, space and permanence buyers come to acreage for, yet the expansion of the south-eastern corridor is unfolding just beyond it. Major road infrastructure, including the Tonkin Highway extension, is drawing the wider area closer to metropolitan Perth, while the property itself remains comfortably removed from the intensity of that growth. It is a rare combination: 10 acres, a substantial family residence, genuine rural amenity and metropolitan convenience all working together. And then there is the extraordinary home, custom-designed to maximise the breadth of the property surrounding it. Built by Shelford Homes in 2017 and spanning an extraordinary 608sqm under the main roof, the residence has been created with a level of scale, quality and attention to detail that is abundantly obvious from the moment you arrive. Built with purpose. Comprising over 370sqm of internal living providing an exceptional level of space for a large or extended family, what stands out most is how deliberately that space has been used. Four king-sized bedrooms, a substantial home office or genuine 5th bedroom, 3 bathrooms and several completely independent living areas give everyone room to spread out without the home ever feeling disconnected. The north-facing orientation, wide verandahs wrapping all sides and considered solar-passive design are equally important, creating a residence designed around the realities of the Australian climate rather than simply its dimensions. Inside, 32 course ceilings, Italian floor tiling through the main living and wet areas, quality window treatments, French doors and plush carpets reinforce the standard of construction throughout. Roller shutters across the bedrooms and north and east-facing rooms add another layer of comfort and practicality. Space done properly. The main family and dining areas are expansive without feeling oversized for the sake of it, creating a central living environment that works equally well for day-to-day family life or a full house of guests. At its heart, the kitchen delivers the proportions expected here, with a long breakfast bar, extensive cabinetry, walk-in pantry, appliance storage, plumbed refrigeration space and 900mm cooking appliances. A servery window opens out to the alfresco for seamless entertaining. Separate from this is a large dedicated theatre, while the games room creates another completely different zone again. And this is no token games room. There is space for a full-sized billiard table, direct connection to the outdoor entertaining and a fitted bar or second kitchen with cabinetry, sink, refrigeration space and servery to the exterior. For families with teenagers, adult children, regular visitors or simply a love of entertaining, that degree of separation is incredibly valuable. The primary suite continues the theme of scale, incorporating a full-length dressing room and large ensuite with freestanding bath, twin vanity, oversized rain shower and separate WC. Each of the 3 secondary bedrooms is king-sized with full-height built-in robes, while the home office is large enough to operate comfortably as a 5th bedroom if required. Built for gathering. More than 130sqm of covered outdoor living wraps around the residence, with exposed aggregate underfoot and a generous rear alfresco positioned to take full advantage of the surrounding acreage. Stacking doors connect the main living spaces with the outdoors, while the games room also opens directly to the entertaining zone. There is a sense that the home was designed to handle people properly, whether that means a large family living here every day or a crowd arriving for the weekend. Lawn and established gardens provide a finished setting immediately around the residence, while leaving the balance of the property open and uncomplicated. Ten acres to make your own. Beyond the home, the land remains one of the property's greatest strengths. Level, open and secured by quality perimeter fencing with mesh, the acreage provides an excellent starting point for horses, livestock, pets or simply enjoying the freedom of having substantial space around you. Importantly, there is no over-complicated paddock system or collection of redundant structures dictating how the property must be used. Future owners can establish internal fencing, shelters, a workshop and supporting infrastructure around their own plans. Two road frontage crossovers further enhance the practicality of the property, with one providing access to the residence and the second allowing independent vehicle access directly into the paddocks. A road-base driveway already extends around to the proposed workshop area, where a power board has been installed in preparation for the next stage. A 162,890 litre steel rainwater tank is plumbed to the residence, while a 3 phase submersible bore supplies irrigation to the surrounding lawns and gardens. Solar hot water, programmable reticulation and an established wastewater system further support the property. The location changes everything. Acreage is one thing. Acreage this close to metropolitan growth is another. Here, the immediate environment retains the character of a large-lot lifestyle estate, protected by its Rural Smallholding zoning and separated from conventional suburban development. Yet beyond the estate, the wider corridor continues to transform. New communities, infrastructure and transport connections are reshaping the south-east, bringing employment, services and metropolitan convenience progressively closer. The result is an increasingly difficult balance to reproduce: the ability to live on 10 acres, return home to a quiet cul-de-sac and look out across open land, without accepting the distance and isolation traditionally associated with a rural property of this scale. What next!? This is a property that becomes more compelling the longer you consider the whole picture. A beautifully constructed Shelford residence of exceptional scale. 10 usable acres. Space for a large or extended family. Room for horses, livestock and future infrastructure. A quiet lifestyle estate. And one of Perth's most significant growth corridors virtually on the doorstep. 50 Echoveld Close, Mardella offers the country lifestyle without giving up connection to where Perth is heading next.
