Tucked away in a quiet cul-de-sac, set on over 2,000sqm, we come upon this enchanting Margaret River sanctuary with stunning gardens and boundless charm.
Located in a sought-after area just west of town, where the Margaret River can be found wrapping around on three sides in the valley below, it's an easy walk or ride to the river and forest trails, or into the Main Street.
The exceptionally well-built, rustic home is an eclectic mix of timber, rendered brick and iron and exudes character and charm - rarely found, homes such as this live and breathe the essence of Margaret River!
A spacious vestibule welcomes you into the home and leads through to the main living room with soaring ceiling and warmed by a woodfire. There's plenty of space for entertaining and relaxing in this generous open-plan living-dining area with a welcoming, country-style kitchen and brilliant bar area. The living area also has dual access to the very private, outdoor oasis.
A creative design has resulted in interesting spaces, such as the one off the kitchen that affords separation to one of the bedroom wings. Living is all on one level although, up a staircase from the front hallway is a massive multipurpose, loft-style space with reverse cycle air conditioner (R/C A/C).
The South wing features a study/spare bedroom with built-in robes and another bedroom with R/C A/C and built-in robes. There's a bathroom with separate bath and shower, and a laundry with toilet.
The North wing features another minor bedroom with built-in robes; a powder room; and a lovely main bedroom with built-in robes and direct access to a beautiful bathroom with bathtub under the window.
Outside is a deep, covered verandah that wraps around 3 sides of the home and allows connection to and enjoyment of the magnificent garden oasis.

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.
