Tucked away in the trees, sitting high above the beautiful Kilcarnup beach, we find this private parcel of Margaret River peace and tranquillity.
Feel yourself relax and unwind as you enter the driveway lined with olive trees and come upon the majestic two storey limestone and timber residence with wrap-around verandahs and flowering vines nestled amongst garden rockeries and peppi trees. Hidden away on one side is a superbly stylish cottage that's registered for short stay - "La Petite Maison".
The owners have created this slice of heaven and a French Provincial flavour prevails thanks to one of the owners being French. Experience countryside living in bohemian style on this gorgeous property - with wine and fine food on your doorstep, who needs to travel overseas?!
The ground floor has polished aggregate flooring through one of the most fabulous living rooms you'll come across with its picture windows connecting to the natural bush and creating a beautiful sense of light and space. Outdoor living is accessed from both the living room and the modern kitchen. A bedroom and bathroom are also located on the ground floor, and a separate laundry and office space complete this level.
Heading up a staircase you find yourself in a super cosy living room that gets winter warmth from the chimney of the downstairs' slow combustion woodfire. There are three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs, and all rooms have doors onto the wrap-around verandah.
For extra income, either by continuing the existing short stay approval or offering for long-term rent, La Petite Maison is an undeniable bonus. With polished concrete floors, recycled doors and windows, Bali-style bathroom, separate living-dining-kitchen, and separate bedroom with additional loft, this cottage exudes style and enjoys a private outdoor courtyard.
Jump on a phat tire bike and ride over to swim in the clear, blue intoxicating waters of Kilcarnup beach, or maybe just jump in your 4WD packed with everything you need for a day in the sun and surf before heading home to your private sanctuary in this very special part of the world.

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.
