If you’re seeking to escape the maddening crowd, where phones continue to ring and beep, where the suburban traffic is and endless flow of movement and the people are too busy to talk, then you need this acreage pleasing “escape to the country getaway”, hidden from much of mankind, the hustle n’ bustle and the continuous white noise…

A highly desirous and sought after street indeed, and your very manageable landholding shares several boundaries with lush, tall and leafy jarrah “state forest”, hosting an abundance of other native flora & fauna. This is exactly the tonic needed!

A whopping workshop come storage shed offers many options to accommodate all sorts of vehicles or carry on many hobby types at the getaway. A separate woodshed will keep your winter wood dry and ready to use at the drop of a hat!
The Bibbulmun Track is 100m or so nearby and so is the tourist railway which operates once a week for the out of towners and & enthusiasts alike…. And in the heart of winter the creek bed at the lower undulation of your landholding transforms into your outside centrepiece; surrounded by the tall timbers and forest canopy overhead and beyond… Truly a unique and delightful benefit!
This is the last privately owned landholding within the precinct and from here on in, its thousands of acres of State Forrest! Accurately an outstanding drive to this property…. And when you arrive, listen for the wind rustling through the leaves & the treetops, the sound of Carnaby’s or Red-Tailed Black Cockatoos in the distance, or the whistling of Wedgetails circling above the canopy… And the many smaller wrens & Western Rosellas will keenly await your arrival
If you’ve ever thought of setting up the easel, picking up a paintbrush and throwing some paint at a blank canvas, this could be your breakthrough moment!
YOU COULD BE LIVING IN THE WOODS!

Dwellingup overview
Dwellingup is located in a timber and fruitgrowing area in the Darling Range ESE of Pinjarra. Townsite lots were surveyed at this place by Surveyor W.F. Rudall in 1909 after the Lands Department became aware that the site was planned as the terminus of the "Pinjarra-Marrinup Railway". Names suggested for the place by Rudall were "Dwellingerup" or "Marrinup", after nearby brooks, or "McLarty" after a local MLA who had been very active concerning the railway. Surveyor General H.F. Johnston chose "Dwellingupp" after being misinformed regarding the spelling of Dwellingerup Brook. Ignoring a suggestion from the Under Secretary to amend the name to "Dwellingdown", the Minister for Lands approved the name as "Dwellingup" in December 1909. Eventually, the spelling "Dwellingupp" was chosen by order of the Under Secretary for Lands, and the townsite was gazetted as Dwellingupp in February 1910. The spelling was amended to Dwellingup in 1915. Dwellingup is an Aboriginal name said to mean "place of nearby water". The town was burnt out by a bushfire in 1961 but was rebuilt.
The double 'p' spelling in the original gazettal of this name was used because the Lands and Surveys Department had adopted a system for spelling Aboriginal names developed by the Royal Geographical Society. A number of Aboriginal names ending in "up" were for a time spelt with the "upp" ending (including Kirupp, Kulikupp, Manjimupp and Mungalupp). The RGS system had a rule that vowels are pronounced as in Italian and consonants as in English. This would have meant that names ending in "up" should have been pronounced as "oop", because the Italian "u" was a long "u", as in flute. These Aboriginal names were meant to be pronounced as "up", and the Department asked the RGS for a rule to assist in correct pronunciation. The RGS solution was that doubling the following consonant shortened the preceding vowel, and this meant the "upp" ending ensured the "up" pronunciation. However, this particular rule was rescinded in 1915 for SW towns with the suffix "up", as the Australian way of pronouncing the letter "u" was almost always short, and rarely the Italian "oo".
