Shakespearean stunner! Take a peek inside this terrific Tudor-inspired Hills home

If you chanced upon this home in the Perth Hills, you could be forgiven for thinking you’d somehow travelled back in time to the late 16th century.

But you haven’t stumbled upon a time machine, nor have you found a portal to the English countryside – but a little slice of Elizabethan life has found its way to you!

Located at 2/25 Canns Road, Bedfordale, this Tudor-style home was originally built in the mid-’70s, created by the late English engineer Leo Fowler.

Part of an Elizabethan-inspired village and standing alongside a replica of Anne Hathaway’s cottage (Shakespeare’s wife, not the actress!), a pint at the iconic Last Drop Elizabethan Tavern is just a charming stroll away. 

Split across three floors, the five bedroom, five bathroom home has been updated for modern living while keeping faithful to its Tudor style – from leadlight windows sourced from England, to the clay shingle tiles and even its secret room!

And although the style is distinctly English, the home’s construction utilises historic and unique materials that are intrinsically West Australian – like timber from the old Barrack Street and Busselton jetties and local Toodyay stone. 

Lower levels – including the country kitchen and living areas with fireplaces – are more intimate and cosy, while the bedrooms on the level above benefit from the impressive scale of the pitched roof’s ceiling height. Those grand, classic Tudor contrasting black beams certainly don’t hurt either!
