WATER VIEWS-HORSE READY
Unwind in a hammock and immerse yourself in the bush, harbour to hinterland outlook and tranquil country surrounds of this Rural Residential-zoned lifestyle acreage.
If you love swimming, fishing and boating or walking, horse riding or four-wheel-driving, or all of the above, there are plenty a beautiful spot to explore close by.
A grammar school and shop are nearby and there are major shopping precincts and Albany's CBD within 15-minutes of home.
The property is well set up for horse lovers, with an Olympic-sized dressage arena, paddock, three stables with yard space and an old cottage now used as a tack room, which could potentially be converted back into a dwelling. There are also two 60,000l and one 24,000l rainwater tanks serving the dwellings and land. The other great drawcard is the fully-lined 12mx12m barn. This could become your dream man shed. Just deck it out however you want.
The classic heritage-inspired mud brick, rendered and stone feature homestead offers a blend of contemporary and traditional styling.
There is also a separate self-contained cottage, which would be ideal for private guests or extended family, or possibly a holiday let.
Meanwhile, back at the homestead, you will discover an elegant lounge with beautiful fireplace and a spacious open living area with a tile fire. Cook up a farmer's feast in the spacious country kitchen near the laundry.
Savour the serenity of the master suite and space and functionality of the family wing.
This property just needs a little spruiking to make it something truly special.

Kalgan overview
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.
