UNIQUE AND HARD TO FIND.
Anyone longing to swap city chaos for country calm, but also wanting the option to earn an income from a property, has a golden opportunity in this tranquil sanctuary.
Only 20-minutes from Albany's CBD, it enjoys an imposing elevation overlooking magnificent Oyster Harbour and the rolling green hills of the Kalgan region.
It is also close to world-class national parks, beaches and waterways and a grammar school and shop.
Rural-zoned and occupying 4.33ha, the property features a large main character home with a desirable 5 bedrooms.
The home has wonderful ornate cornices, high ceilings and jarrah floors and a huge, totally refurbished modern kitchen.
There are plenty of bedrooms and storage options and a main bathroom and bathroom/laundry combo and a utility area.
The views are outstanding from the home and the living and entry zone could benefit from a wraparound deck to enjoy those wonderful sunsets from.

The townsite of Kalgan is located in the south coastal region, about 21 kilometres northeast of Albany. It was gazetted a townsite in 1912 following the opening up of land in the area, but land had been put aside for a townsite here in 1837. The place was named "Wyndham" on an 1839 map of the area, but there was no subdivision or land made available in the townsite. It is recorded that it was to be the site of a farming community for the Society of Friends (Quakers), but there is no evidence that any Quakers ever settled in the area.
As there was already a Wyndham in the Kimberley when the town was gazetted in 1912, the name Kalgan was chosen for the townsite. Kalgan is the Aboriginal name of the river on which the townsite is situated, the name being first recorded by the explorer Dr A Collie as "Kalgan-up" in 1831. It is said to mean "place of many waters". The river had earlier been referred to as the "French River", since the French explored it in 1803.
