ENCHANTING COASTAL RETREAT - A MASTERPIECE OF HISTORY AND CRAFTSMANSHIP
Step into a world where coastal charm meets historical elegance in the scenic town of Lancelin, just an hour's journey north of Perth along the breathtaking Indian Ocean Drive. This unique 4 x2, 3-story Federation-style home, built in 1990 on the heritage-rich site of an original beach shack, invites you into a space where every corner tells a story of artistry and timeless dedication.
Key Features:
• Spacious and Serene: The home features 4 bedrooms, with 3 nestled on the first floor including the master for quiet solitude and a 4th bedroom on the second floor offering a tranquil retreat with a rear veranda that looks out over the iconic WA sand dunes, providing a serene backdrop for peaceful mornings or reflective evenings.
• Breathtaking Views: From the second-floor veranda, enjoy serene views of the famous WA sand dunes, and from the front, the expansive Lancelin Bay stretches out with its islands, surf, and boats.
• Exquisite Craftsmanship: This home beautifully showcases massive Jarrah posts reclaimed from the historic Plaistow's factory in Perth, integrated throughout the residence for a robust, warm aesthetic. These elements of history are complemented by stunning recycled lead light windows that not only add character but also bathe the interiors in colorful, dappled light.
• Sophisticated Timberwork: The interior beams and kitchen features, crafted from exquisite Oregon timber imported from Canada, lend a rustic yet refined touch. The same Oregon beams grace the kitchen, forming sturdy, visually striking benches, and cupboards, infusing the living spaces with a warmth that echoes the sandy shores outside.
• Historical Charm and Modern Comfort: This home is built to last with Batu hardwood framing and a robust limestone garage/workshop on the ground level.
Garden and Exteriors: The enchanting backyard, sheltered under the canopy of a mature WA peppermint tree, creates a cool, lush shaded haven creating a tranquil, shady retreat perfect for family gatherings or a quiet afternoon with a book.
Additional Luxuries: Includes a large limestone garage/workshop, ample space for a caravan or boat, and a bore-fed reticulated lawn.
Built around a huge pine trees, the home stands in the wind shadow created by its towering presence, adding a lyrical, almost poetic quality to the property's ambiance.
