This Craftsman Built Character House in the wonderful location of Margaret River boasts a solid structure that would be near impossible to replicate today because of the hard to find materials and rare timbers used in its construction .

This is a home and property for lifestyle living with an enjoyable ambience of green views out every window.
A couple with kids for instance could establish Gardens and set up some hobby produce .
The shed at the rear is an asset for storage or online business export etc .
Being conscious of modern toxins readily used, the builder has taken many natural precautions within the build .
The land has never been poisoned , the natural protections in the construction are a bonus including the use of virtually indestructable Jarrah .
Concerned parents can be rest assured no harmful product gases are lurking inside treated timber walls .
The main living area , main verandah and kitchen faces North for that free winter warmth .

The house has an up to date New House Standard Building Licence and also a current Holiday Short Term Rental Licence issued by the Shire.

It's elevated northern aspect takes full advantage of the winter sunshine .
The main living area and kitchen floods with natural light all year round .

Over the years an original Granite, Brick and Jarrah timber home has been built within professionally contoured landscaping .
There is a series of established roads to service the majority of the block and immediate house environs .
Any Earth Works Landscaper today would quote hundreds of thousands to create this hillside setting with its massive rock retaining foundations .
Over the years with growing children two distinct studio sections were built using the same Jarrah framed methods .

With the main house being a 3x2 plus the separate studios, there is the availability of three self contained rentals .
She is basically a 5 bed x4 bath overall.
Currently the main two storey house is vacant and the studios are occupied.
In the last twelve months the whole property has undergone a major investment and refurbishment overall.
The large farm style kitchen with views comes with a new bench top ,
a brand new gas electric free-standing stove and a new, yet to be turned on LG Dishwasher.

A Professional Building Surveyor (BSBI) was employed to consult on required certification compliances towards an up-to-date as built Building Licence Certification , this has been officially granted as of December 2022 .

The requirements include Engineering , Plumbing , Electrical, BLA , Full set of Architectural Drawings , Pest Inspection etc , many tens of thousands of dollars has been spent in achieving what amounts to a new house licence status .
As of December 2022 the Septic System has been upgraded with a new 16m leach drain addition , an advantage of septics is you do not pay sewerage rates to Water Corp .

This house has been built by the owner who has built with strength and longevity as a priority going beyond required Building Standard Requirements.
The love of quality timber can be seen throughout .
Only the use of untreated native timbers allows the new owners the comfort of knowing the air they breath is as natural as possible.
The property is close to town on the way to the beach/surf and has direct walking access to the magic walking valley of the Yalgardup Creek and onwards to the Margaret River.

Town is minutes away and an easy bike ride for the kids to and from school.
A couple of acres of mown grassed public open space paddock adjoins the boundary for whatever sports or fun the kids would like.

The park land cleared lot has ample space to create whichever ambition and ideas you might have.
Hobby farm , Vines, Orchard, Tiny House Locations , potential separate ancillary dwelling in the future.

As above this is a lifestyle block.

The soil over the entire block is fertile Karri loam, see the photo, dig anywhere to find this.

The property is serviced with TOWN WATER and there is the potential of drilling for an underground bore , historical proof available.

There is underground power feed including internally on the property.

There are two excellent sheds.
One a steel stud framed secure lockable unit.

The other an original farm style high trussed jarrah pole structure 12 x 7 m currently under renovation towards a Jarrah floored art studio.
This bush shed is special because although it is outside the building envelope it is legitimately recognised by the shire .
The current asking price does not really recognise this incredible asset because its internal construction is incomplete .
However when finished and I prove its worth who knows.
Close to the house are two wonderful fruiting Avocado trees and a grassed cottage garden area.
The buyer could be a young adventurous family or a retired couple wanting a draw card down south for the kids to come and stay separately.
Investors can capitalise on the very good prospect of combined short or long term rents and still have a 3x2 for themselves .
The house has a current Holiday Short Term Licence x 6 beds per the Shires requirements.

Please contact us to make a viewing time.

This property in my somewhat biased opinion is one of the best locations and opportunities available in Margaret River today.

As above I hope a young family can find the finances to purchase this enviable lifestyle .

If you have read thus far and am wondering why this prestigeous property has not sold yet and why it is back with the owner ,
short answer ,
I have been through the Agent system and found it is hard to find one that has any energy for selling beyond the easy suburbs in this bouyant market climate .
I have come to realize my place is a one off and I will need people with imagination and ambition to own a wonderful safe family environment .
It would also be an advantage if they appreciate the value of Jarrah houses .

I look forward to hearing from you and offer a complete history and description of my building logic to genuine interested parties.
