Every so often a property comes onto the market that ticks all the boxes. This stunning 150 acre (61 Hectare) property 15km south of Margaret River does just that. Set amongst the gently undulating hills, move right in as is & do nothing but enjoy drinking your own wine from the productive 61 ha or you could use the beautifully set out vineyard & avenue of poplars as an entrance to a chalet/conference/retreat (with Shire approval), or maybe use the improved pasture for equestrian pursuits or the extensive water supply for an aquatic venture and the possibilities are limitless!
Nestled on the side of the hill and surrounded by a large expanse of lawn the delightful 1923 group settlement cottage gives no hint on the outside of the beautiful renovation within. The house has a simple weatherboard exterior with cedar doors & windows and a generous veranda on three sides. On entering the newly renovated kitchen/ dining/ living area a bank of windows above the kitchen bench draws the eye to the stunning view of the vineyard & dam beyond while flooding the area with natural light. The beautiful gourmet kitchen with designer appliances blends seamlessly with the original section of the home that incorporates the living/dining area and both bedrooms. Wide rough sawn Jarrah floor boards, & high ceilings, are a feature in these rooms. Both bedrooms are large, with the master bedroom having a set of French doors onto the veranda. A stunning sleek bathroom with a large shower & heated towel rail, a spacious laundry with built in cupboards & store room, an office nook and a 3rd small bedroom/storage room complete this amazing renovation. Quality floor tiling throughout with underfloor heating and a wood burning stove in the living area create a cosy ambiance to the area that makes it a wonderful place to relax and call home. The owners have done the hard work and set up a beautiful property and now want to move on. Could this be what you are looking for?
