Under Offer By Jarrad O'Rourke
The name says it all, this gorgeous but humble little cottage started its journey back in Margaret River's 1970's. Surfers and hippies alike began their pilgrimage to the surfing mecca of Western Australia, finding peaceful locations away from the mainstream, building earthy little homes of stone and wood, they became known as the new settlers.
Little Nirvana is one those charming little surf shacks, there are very few left and they are even harder to find on the market. Built by a true legend of the sport a winner of the famous Bells Beach Pro in the 60's (You will have to enquire to find out who) and lovingly restored by its former and current custodians, into what can only be described as a piece of surfing folk law.
If only these walls could talk!
Nestled close to the banks of the Margaret River on a majestic 5000 square meters of undulating Jarrah and Marri forest. You'll have the feeling of being miles from anywhere but only minutes from the now bustling little tourist town of Margaret River.
Lovingly built and restored from locally sourced materials, with sweeping forest views this open plan 2 bed 1 bathroom cottage is so cool, with its rough sawn jarrah beams and cosy wood fire you will be transported back to a time when things were simpler, but with a few mod cons thrown in.

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.
