Make Magic Here

---

If you've always longed for a fairytale kind of life, this is your opportunity to finally live it. A Darlington delight set on a big bush block, this family home seems to hum with all the happiness and magical memories it's collected in the many decades since its original construction. Beautiful Jarrah floorboards, brick feature walls, wide timber-framed windows and doorways, and the decked entertaining area that captures the view of the sparkling pool below and the lush escarpment beyond - it's all a bit rustic and whimsical and perfectly lovely. Delight in sunsets that paint evenings in pink and gold, watch as the stars emerge and the moon makes her way across the sky, or wake with the birds and be serenaded as you savour your coffee out in the fresh morning air. There's something bewitching about this place.

A dressing room in the main bedroom adds a touch of whimsy to a very practical element of this home, and this fantastical feeling is also found in the versatility of the living spaces, including the additional rumpus room. Add your décor of choice, get creative with displays of souvenirs, oddities, or curios, fill every corner with plants, create a book nook, set up an art or yoga studio for yourself, or make a music room. This is a home where hobbies and self-expression should be indulged, and imagination allowed to run wild. Possibilities can be explored outside, too. The large block is mostly natural bushland, which of course is perfectly lovely as it is. But should you want something extra - a separate studio or granny flat, perhaps, or a workshop - there's no reason not to pursue your dreams.

It's only natural that Darlington is a desirable place to live; there's so much to love about the Hills, and Darlington seems to capture the magic of all of it. Wild and wonderful beauty abounds, with sprawling reserves, quarries begging to be explored, and national parkland close by. Hike or mountain bike, seek out lookouts and scenic spots, practice landscape photography, or get out at night for some stargazing. There's magic to be found no matter where you look. Of course nearby there are also all the facilities we rely on for modern life, such as schools, shops, bus stops, and sports clubs, plus the less-essential but still lovely-to-have such as retreats and art galleries. Set at the end of a peaceful cul de sac across from pretty parkland, you could hardly wish for more.

Be charmed.
