This is a special property with a modern spacious home plus three sheds all of which are situated at the rear of a very tidy Rural Residential property only 4km from Augusta.
Calkarri Drive is a quiet area of small holding properties not far from the Leeuwin Naturaliste Ridge with excellent walk trails and plenty of wild flowers. 56 Calkarri Drive is a 3.1ha (7.5ac) property with a shire reserve at the rear so you would really only have two neighbours.
The home was built in 2009 using double brick construction with a colourbond roof and verandas almost all the way round the home. There is an open plan kitchen/living/dining area that leads onto two covered outdoor areas. There is a formal lounge and the four bedrooms are all of a generous size (double bed size) with carpeted floors and built in wardrobes except for the master bedroom which has a walk in wardrobe.
Floor coverings through most of the home are solid marri, just stunning. The bedrooms are all carpeted. Heating in the living area is by a wood heater and there is an air conditioner in the lounge room.
Both bathrooms have a shower and a bath tub. Both have tiled floors and wall tiles right to the ceiling and the ensuite has a separate loo.
Outside is three sheds, all with concrete floors and power connected. The biggest is a 10m x 12m steel framed shed clad with colourbond which has a roller door each end that are 3.6m wide and approx. 4.5m high. Ideal for a caravan or a big boat.
The second shed is a bit older and is also colourbond but with a steel and timber frame. There are two roller doors side by side that are approx. 2.4m wide and high. The third shed is steel and timber framed with zincalume cladding, 6m x 8.5m with access via a sliding glass door.
Water is from two steel rainwater tanks that have vinyl liners. There is a small dam with a jet pump in the back corner though the pump has not been used for some time.
The property is boundary fenced using farm style ringlock on some steel posts and some pine posts. There are no internal fences. There are trees along the boundaries and the balance of the property is mown grass.
The driveway from the road to the home and sheds is sealed with hot mix. What a bonus….no potholes!

The most south westerly town in the state, Augusta was named by Gov. Sir James Stirling in May 1830. Until 2003 it was thought the name honoured Princess Augusta Sophia, second daughter of King George III and Queen Charlotte. In 2003 the book "James Stirling - Admiral and Founding Governor of Western Australia" a letter by James Turner is referred to which states "a town is purposed to be built named Augusta, County of Sussex, in compliment to the Duke". Princess Augusta Sophia died unmarried, and the "Duke" is most likely the Duke of Sussex, Augustus Frederick (Hanover), the 6th son of George III. He married Lady Augusta Murray in 1793, but the marriage was deemed a violation of the Royal Marriage Act, and was declared null and void in 1794. Lady Augusta Murray is most likely the person after whom Augusta is named.
Augusta is a town on the south west coast of WA and was predominately a tourist town up until the late 1990s when many people chose to retired to the region. The town is known for its major attractions such as Cape Leeuwin "where two oceans meet" and its impressive lighthouse. Augusta is dependent on professional fishing, timber and tourism. There is a local shopping centre in the area and two primary schools - Augusta Primary School and Karridale Primary School, with the closest secondary school Margaret River Senior High School.
