Quintessential Margaret River property steeped in history
Overlooking a beautiful pocket of Margaret River's waterfall valley, this enchanting property presents unique eco-friendly sense-of-place with an exceptional opportunity for multi-generational living.
The centrepiece of this idyllic retreat is a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom classic West Australian jarrah homestead, boasting timeless character with its original floorboards, high ceilings and huge shady verandah providing a warm welcome.
Further enriching the property's historical tapestry, a second classic cottage, once housing group settlers, is a proud testament to the area's rich past. Additional outbuildings offer versatile spaces to foster creativity and recreation, including a practical shed-studio repurposed into an artistic haven by a renowned local artisan; and another enchanting small retreat for teens, travellers or family visitors.
All main buildings have various improvements and modifications with potential throughout for upgrading including the outbuildings, ideal for home business with a cottage industry licence.
Sustainability and self-sufficiency are at the heart of this property, evidenced by an irrigated permaculture garden that greets visitors at the cottage's doorstep and multiple rainwater tanks. The land extends over an impressive 1.53 hectares between town and the coast, featuring pristine hilltop valley vistas, a swath of untouched bushland, established native planting and 14 fruit trees. The main heritage fig in the centre of the home compound provides an incredible natural alfresco sanctuary beneath its sprawling canopy.
The wonders of this property do not cease at the garden's edge. A bush track weaves through the adjacent reserve to idyllic riverside trails and swimming holes - hidden gems that offer a slice of paradise for hot summer days and winter walks. This property is not just a home; it's a choice of lifestyle promising peace, privacy, and harmonious connection with nature's bounty, all within the idyllic setting of Margaret River's most coveted enclaves.

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.
