80s Dream
Possession of this home is available immediately upon settlement.
Big yards were a feature of the 70s and 80s. A breeding ground for great footballers and cricketers, these properties seem an unobtainable dream. Here's a classic right under your nose in Margaret River. Not only a big yard, but right opposite the Margaret River Primary School and the main street, sports, medical and cultural facilities are literally within 1km. Parental taxi service not required!
The red brick home was built to last in 1979 by a Busselton builder, before the days of minimal slabs and footings. The internal walls are stud framed jarrah, so removing walls and opening the layout is achievable. The structure appears very good.
The kitchen has a 4 burner upright gas stove, grill and oven in excellent condition, the three bedrooms are all generous in size and there's a large laundry. The living room and main bedroom are fitted with window mounted evaporative airconditioners, and there's a separate bath and shower. There's also plenty of room on the east facing back veranda for a rainy day.
Access is available for a mid sized vehicle to the enclosed rear yard, and the property may suit the addition of a Granny Flat or spacious shed.
A 4500L watertank is fitted with an electric pump to run the retic for the front and rear lawns. HWS is a large Solahart.
As a bonus, the property is just inside the Holiday House Catchment Area, opening up the possibility of short term holiday leasing. This would allow you to make an income while still using the property for your own holidays.
Electrical inspection is complete, the septic will be serviced by end of January. Renovate, extend or move right in? Your choice.
Here's a rare chance to recapture some of that back yard magic for your family, right opposite a great school in a rapidly growing town.

Margaret River overview
The townsite of Margaret River is located in the south west agricultural area, 277 kilometres south southwest of Perth and 48 kilometres south southwest of Busselton. It is located on the Margaret River from which it derives its name. The precise origin of the naming of the river is not known, but it was possibly named by John Bussell in honour of Margaret Wyche, a friend in England who was expected to follow the Bussell's to Australia. The name is first shown on a map of the region published in 1839.
In 1910 the Margaret River Progress Association wrote to the Minister for Lands requesting a townsite be declared at "the Upper Margaret Bridge". The reason given was that "the district is likely to be dotted with public buildings several miles apart in the near future if a townsite is not made available shortly". The District Surveyor who inspected the area preferred an area near the lower bridge on Caves Road, but this land was not available. Lots were surveyed in 1912, and the Townsite of Margaret River gazetted in 1913. In 1918 the name of the townsite was changed to "Margaret", but it was changed back to Margaret River in 1927, due to local usage of the name always being Margaret River.
