Built in 2001 by local boutique builder KB Builders, the home sits on a substantial 2,155m² property, offering space to spread out, explore and embrace a relaxed lifestyle. Recent improvements have given the home a fresh new feel, including a complete interior and exterior repaint, new carpets and window treatments throughout, updated kitchen finishes, a brand-new ensuite and new lighting throughout.

Character, Warmth & Refreshed Interiors
The home's distinctive character is evident throughout, with solid timber beams, high raked ceilings and beautiful Tasi Oak timber flooring creating warmth and natural appeal.

The generous main living area offers flexibility for two separate living zones, making it ideal for relaxed family living or entertaining friends. A new reverse-cycle air conditioner provides year-round comfort, while the restored slow-combustion wood heater adds to the home's rustic charm and creates a cosy atmosphere during the cooler months.
Centrally positioned, the country-style kitchen forms the heart of the home, connecting effortlessly with the surrounding living spaces. New stone benchtops and all-new kitchen appliances, including a dishwasher, bring a modern touch to this welcoming space.
A bank of north-facing windows and sliding doors draws natural light into the home and creates an easy connection to the expansive timber entertaining deck, where you can enjoy views across the landscaped gardens and beyond.

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.
