Family Home with Modern Studio
This large lofty property of over 3000m2 has so much to offer. It includes a 4 x 2 with study and a 1 x 1 studio. This is well positioned in a very popular area west of town, just a short ride from the main street .
The house is amongst established trees and has been tastefully renovated and well thought out in its redesign. Whitewashed brick walls give it a fresh, clean open feeling along with the polished concrete floors. It is a modern functional home with 2 x open plan living spaces divided by a double- sided wood fire and a spacious new kitchen. There’s plenty of bench space and a large oven. Bedrooms are all well sized and include built-ins.
Long stretches of veranda overlooking the lawns and established trees, give the home a wonderful comforting country feel.
The 1x1 studio is well positioned and far enough from the home to provide complete privacy. It has been beautifully and cleverly created utilising two sea containers which gives it a real modern feel. It features jarrah and polished concrete floors, a functional kitchen, wood fire and a stylish bathroom. Situated in the back corner of the block with strategically placed shrubs, allows privacy between the 2 dwellings.
Previously this was run as a short-term rental but of late has been leased long term.
Outside, there are large lawn areas, natives and fruit trees. A large shed also offers plenty of additional storage options. The northern side of the block is bordered by a reserve giving the perception of even more space.
The combination of block size, a very liveable family home and a supplementary income will make this a highly sought-after property that will not last long on the market.
Features include:
• Huge well-maintained block of land
• Extensive renovation including roof, electrics and much more.
• Polished concrete floors
• White washed brick walls
• New kitchen with 900mm Smeg oven
• Open Plan living spaces x 2
• Large established native and fruit trees
• Lockable shed with 3 phase power.
• 1 x 1 studio
• Close to schools and shops

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.
