Michelle Morrison 0419 043 217

for saleThe fi rst thing I noticed when I pulled up to this fantastic little 4X2 beachhouse was the massive (and probably ancient) melalueca tree casting a dreamy shade over the front lawns. I couldn’t help but let my mind wander straight to Rotto (or Yallingup) - two beachfronts renowned for these beautiful coastal trees.

With only one house between this home and the dunes, the “coastal fringe” location is perfectly suited to such a beautiful tree. The facade of the house itself, could also (perhaps?!) be described as a little Rottnest-esque due to its Spanish inspired arches. It gives you a real “holiday feel” every time you pull into the driveway.

Although modest in appearance from the street, once you enter you will discover far more than you expect. Only one house from the water’s edge this impeccable 4x2 on perfectly level 890sqm offers open plan living, sweeping master suite, modern kitchen, undercover alfresco and potential ocean views. The central area consists of a modern kitchen, sweeping open plan living area, including huge dining space suitable for home-cooked feasts for extended family and friends en-masse. (Current owners table would probably sit 16!) There are natural clay tiles, cedar doors and windows and plantation blinds.

French doors open onto sprawling level rear lawns and gardens, and also onto a huge undercover alfresco living space with high pitched ceilings

and clear cafe blinds on all open walls, providing a cozy year round “outdoor lounge”. The Master suite is expansive in size. It is open plan to a modern en-suite and has an aspect over front gardens and an entire frosted glass wall fl ooding the space with light yet retaining privacy.

The minor bedroom wing is well separated, which is great for families, however one of the minor rooms has a second door which makes it accessible from the master suite and as such it would be well suited to any buyers with a young child/ baby. The current owners have young kids and have found the layout of the home perfect in this regard, due to all internal and external play areas being perfectly visible from the kitchen and main living areas. Kapinara Primary School - one of the most sought after in the state - is a couple of hundred metres up the road.

The land holding is hard to beat. Only one house exists between it and the dunes. You are purchasing a perfectly level 890sqm lot. Second level extensions would reveal pleasant ocean views. A great place for you to live a wonderful lifestyle whilst bringing up a young family, and perhaps redevelop down the track to capatalise on this greatland parcel on the edge of the coastal fringe...

A natural bondNESTLED into bush surroundsbehind the City Beach Groyne, thistwo-level home is quite extraordinary.

Its full effect is not evident until youstep inside the front door.

Built in 1968, the architect-designedresidence features a clever floor planwith excellent separation, sunlit interi-ors and a cool, contemporary feel.

The street is an idyllic setting forsuch a home – unusually large blockshave enabled neighbours to developwhile retaining remnant vegetation andthe charm of the precinct.

The area is a showcase of architec-tural experiment throughout the

decades and is dotted with creativeexamples of homes that nestle into theundulating topography.

This home has three bedrooms anda second storey loft that could be usedas a fourth bedroom, activity room orteenager’s retreat.

There is also an office or musicroom, separate living area and twomodern renovated bathrooms.

At the heart of the home is a versa-tile timber, granite and frosted glasskitchen with contemporary stainlesssteel appliances and a beautiful outlookto the garden.

Set on 1207sq m, the property has

the most beautiful tri-level terracedgarden that backs on to native bush-land, creating a seemingly infinitecanopy of trees.

You can’t help but feel at one withthe stunning natural environment.

Just a short stroll directly down thehill to the City Beach groyne, surf club,patrolled swimming beach and beach-front cafes, this property would beperfect for a creative owner whowants to put their stamp on a homewith fantastic bones.

The popular City Beach primaryschool is also just at the end of thestreet. ■

Stuff of which great memories are madeTHE owners brought their childrenup here, so this East Fremantlehome naturally exudes a family feel.

Behind the unassuming facade, arich blend of warm timber, wideopen spaces and natural light char-acterises the residence, combiningpost-World War II architecture witha contemporary extension.

But it is the back garden wheremagic happens.

Bifold doors open out to analmost ethereal, enchanted gardensetting.

Elevated timber decking, built

around towering trees flows into anexpansive terraced garden featuringlawn areas, horse stables and tenniscourts.

The owners have wonderful sto-ries of their children playing footballand tennis, making flying foxes thatraced from one side of this half-acreblock to the other and finding anarray of hiding spots in the back yardfor games of hide-and-seek.

They held movie nights withdozens of friends by hanging sheetson the back of the tennis court wall,serving pizzas fresh from their pizza

oven and hosted the Head of theRiver after-party that culminatedwith over 600 guests in the backgarden.

There is certainly no shortage ofspace on this 2049sq m landholding.

Inside, formal and informal livingand dining areas are separate fromthe four bedrooms.

Upstairs, a pretty loft area makesa perfect master or guest suite withits own private bathroom and julietbalcony with views out to the ocean.

There are three bathrooms alto-gether.

A fabulously designed kitchen andadjacent dining area comprise thecontemporary extension, and thekitchen is beautifully appointed withtimber cabinetry and granite bench-tops, as well as a place for absolute-ly everything.

The property has R17.5 zoningwhich means it has the potential tobe subdivided into three lots but it isalso just as likely that another familywill come along and recognise the beauty within, and want to cre-ate their own special memorieshere. ■

A LAST minute change of heart saved thisoriginal 1920s home from being bulldozed.

The owner, an architect, said the home wasa total ‘bowl over’ and got council approval toknock it down before deciding that it might beworthwhile restoring it.

He retained and completely restored thefront and original section of the home andadded a stunning extension to the rear, trans-forming the ugly duckling into a very beautifulswan.

The home effortlessly combines all thecharm of yesteryear with the contemporaryluxuries of today, having been exquisitely reno-vated throughout.

Spectacular from the front, the facade fea-tures timber-decked verandahs, stained lead-light window panels, white plantation shuttersand manicured gardens with roses and elegantmagnolias.

It provides the perfect setting to relax andlet the world go by while you take in the viewsof beautiful Lake Monger, which is just metresaway.

The home comprises four large bedroomsand two modern bathrooms (with a bath in themain), both featuring Italian marble flooring.

Charming fireplaces feature in both frontrooms.

There are wide jarrah boards throughoutwith lovely white plantation shutters to thebedroom windows.

At the rear, a stunning kitchen with contem-porary stone benches and a marble splashbackis complemented by sleek Miele appliances.

Flanking this is an open-plan living and diningarea with french doors out to a lovely garden

courtyard and timber-framed bi-fold doors outto a north-facing alfresco deck.

Additional features include stylish, contem-porary light fittings throughout and reverse-cycle ducted airconditioning.

There is also a double lock-up garage off arear sealed laneway.

One step inside the wide central hallwaywith soaring ceilings, and this will feel likehome. ■

INVEST IN THE SOUTH WEST 21

Recovery on thepristine horizon

THE State’s South West is renowned forits white sandy beaches, majestic forests,fabulous wines and gourmet delights.

Therefore, it is no wonder the area isa hot target for those wanting to buy aslice of this real estate heaven.

However, is the time ripe to purchasethat holiday home ‘down south’?

Speaking at the Urban Developmentof Australia’s South West Finance Forumin Dunsborough last month, the Com-monwealth Bank’s national head of prop-erty finance Colin Robertshaw said thelower end of the SW market was “travel-ling well” but anything above $500,000was “more or less stagnant”.

“It’s a buyer’s market in the SouthWest,” he said.

CB Richard Ellis senior valuer JustinAnderson told Residential Busselton wasthe hottest town in the South West atthe moment to buy property.

“Busselton has been the best per-

former over the past quarter,’’ he said.“Value levels generally have been fairly

stable with little or relatively no capitalgrowth; however, we are seeing moretransactions and enquiries.

“The establishing Vasse Newtownestate in Vasse has been recognised as anarea likely to outperform new establish-ing estates, including Provence and ViaVasse estate in the locality of Yalyalup.

“Stock levels within Vasse Newtownappear to be coming down and agentshave advised that vacant land supplies incurrent stages are rather low at presentand likely to continue.”

In addition, Mr Anderson said estab-lished properties on the northern side ofBussell Highway in Busselton and beach-side of Caves Road within Dunsboroughand Quindalup were likely to see moreactivity and value growth in the future.

“There is some good buying in thesesectors with properties becoming avail-able for sale around the $400K mark,” hesaid.“The Dunsborough/Quindalup mar-kets have been fairly soft over the past12 months with little activity, althoughfalling value levels and price reductionsare making this sector more affordable

with only a finite supply available due tothe geographical boundaries.”

Overall, Mr Anderson was optimisticabout the future of the South West, butacknowledged that the market had beenfairly soft in most sectors with limitedpurchaser demand.

“The greatest activity has been in thesub-$500K category, with propertiespriced above $1m showing little activity.”

Debbie Bridges from Acton Southagreed that Busselton was the place tobuy your next holiday home, due to itscurrent low prices.

“Prices in the South West are startingto sneak up,’’ she said.

Debra Goostrey, CEO of the UDIAWA, described the current quiet marketas an excellent opportunity for investorsand homebuyers.

“We’re already starting to see some ofthe building blocks to market recovery.The rental market is starting to tightenwhich will normally lead to greaterdemand and rising rents,’’ she said.

“This in turn encourages investorswho will snap up the bargains that arearound now.The message is get in soon,recovery is on the horizon.” ■

TOP TIPS FOR BUYING APROPERTY IN THE SOUTH WEST5IN the present economic con-

ditions, now is a prime time tobuy in the South West as ven-dors have become realisticabout price.

According to Sharli Ham-mond from William PorteousProperties International, as theeconomy grows and the popu-lation increases, we should seevery good capital appreciationover the coming years.

“A large percentage of buy-ers looking to purchase property in the State’s South Westwill be from Perth or north and looking for a lifestylechange, a second home or a sea change,” she said.

Before you make the 3-5 hour trip to view properties‘down south’, read Sharli’s top five tips for buying a proper-ty in the South West.

1. PLANGood planning is essential to know exactly what youare looking for, so you should create a simple checklist.For example, do you want to live among the treesor by water?Do you require views?Do you want family and friends to come and stay?Will it be too far for them to visit?If you are retiring, will there be adequate medicalfacilities if needed? Is the area easily accessible for public transport?Is the property primarily for investment or lifestyle?

2. RESEARCHView agents’ websites and newspaper real estate sectionsto get a feel for what is available (style of homes, locations,prices and so on).Does it match your criteria?Does anything jump out at you?

3. SEEK PROFESSIONAL ADVICEContact real estate agents in the area(s).In the first instance by phone/email to discuss their prop-erties – concentrating on those which have appeal to you.Check to see what has sold in the area and at what price.Evaluate agents – will you be comfortable with them andwill they work with you to understand your needs?Will they contact you on future properties as they comeon the market?

4. VISIT THE AREAAssuming that you are not from the area you are intendingto buy into, it is important to obtain first-hand knowledge.I suggest you stay in the area (not just on holiday), take acamera, and your checklist (with notes), speak to realestate agents and locals for first-hand information of thearea.Pay particular attention to prevailing winds, sun movementand the effect it will have on your property, both in summerand winter.Is there enough infrastructure such as shops, restaurantsdoctors, hospitals and so on to suit you?If it is a large property, will it have sufficient water?Does the stream dry up?

5. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTCheck with the planning department and local shire coun-cil to find out if any major developments are on the cards(road works, rezoning, logging and so on).You don’t want any surprises after purchasing, which couldaffect the value and lifestyle appeal of the property.

Ten-bedroom property offers an attractiveopportunitY, writes SAMANTHA JONES

A COUNTRYgirl at heart,Acton SouthWest’s seniorsales executiveDebbie Bridgeshas three greatloves in her life –family, the greatoutdoors andreal estate.

She grew up inWA’s wheat andsheep farming area (Cadoux and Eneabba)and discovered the city lights of Perth whenshe attended high school and university.

Starting out in teaching, Debbie taught formany years in both the country and citybefore moving her attention to real estate.

“Although I loved teaching, the opportuni-ty of a career change into the real estateindustry in the beautiful Dunsborough, Bus-

selton, Eagle Bay and Yallingup areas was veryappealing,’’ she said.

“I had always loved property and my fatherwas involved in rural sales so it was ‘in myblood’ as they say.

“I love change and a challenge, and with myfamily’s blessing I was suddenly a real estateagent.”

Renowned for being top of her game,Deb-bie has received many awards for top sellerthroughout her career – including top sellerfor the South West and Gold Award winnerfor the Acton Real Estate Group last year.

“Real estate is and has been a rewardingcareer for me,’’ she said.

“With a lot of hard work, long hours and abit of luck and lots of fun and laughs, I now

enjoy a high profile as a successful real estateagent in this area.

“Although many believe I work 24/7, I doleave plenty of time to enjoy life outside realestate, although selling real estate is a verysocial career with networking and meetingpeople all the time as everyone loves to talkreal estate.”

When Debbie isn’t selling property she’senjoying the beauty of the State’s South West,with walks along the beach with her dogMolly and tasting the great variety of wines atsome local vineyards and restaurants withher partner.

She also enjoys gardening, travelling, read-ing, going to the movies and spending timewith her friends.

“I travelled to India last year with girl-friends to experience an Ayurvedic Retreat; itwas just wonderful,’’ she said.

“This year’s travel will include India againand New Zealand, but the famous CaminoWalk through France and Spain is on mybucket list.”

With a love for what she does, it is nothard to see why Debbie is a popular agent forpeople selling high-profile beachside andbeachfront properties.

“I love selling real estate and I love life,’’ shesaid.

“Dunsborough is where I will work, playand grow old... with an occasional trip to thecity lights for culture, family and fun, but I amnever away for long.

“As they say, you can take the girl to thecity but you cannot take the country out ofthe girl.” ■

If you are yet to discover Bremer Bay you have just got to get here! Lot 642 O’Dea

Rd, Or “Dillon Bay” as it is known to its current owner is one of Bremer’s premium

land parcels. A little over 5Km as the crow fl ies from the Bremer Town Centre and

very close to the recent Point Henry Peninsular subdivision (which was divided into

many roughly 10 acre coastal lifestyle lots). It has over 2.5Km of frontage to coastal

reserve. It abuts the world renowned Fitzgerald River National Park at its Eastern

boundary. It comprises roughly half pasture and half coastal dune systems, and has

the picturesque Bitter Creek running through it.

Directly out the front are some of the most mesmerising blue waters you are ever

likely to see. On my recent visit the ocean directly in front of the property was literally

littered with calving and breaching whales only meters from the shore.

Whether your interest is agricultural, investment, tourism, development, leisure or a

combination of the lot, this property just screams potential and opportunity (Enquiries

on all of these matters should be made direct to the shire of Jerramungup and no

THE Enclave, an exciting new land release in Eagle Bay, has been released offering a subdivision of 36 rural residential lots. With an emphasis on retaining the quintessential Eagle Bay lifestyle that focuses on beach living in a rural setting, the development ensures that each block has its own special character and outlook over the breathtaking surrounds. The majority of the lots are complete Bush blocks without specifi c building Envelopes and instead “no build” zones around perimeters that allow buyers to take advantage of the best coastal locale. Many of the ambient bushland blocks are less than 500 metres from the Eagle Bay beach. Unlike many homes in Eagle Bay, which have to rely on rainwater tanks for their water supply, all lots on The Enclave will have full scheme water. In addition, all lots at The Enclave are fully serviced with kerbed bitumen roads, power and telephone and scheme water.Investors would also be well suited to this development with existing high-quality Eagle Bay homes bringing as much as $14,000 a week in rental income. The new development has easy

access to the thriving Dunsborough locale and is a short drive from the Margaret River wine region and tourist precinct. Some of the many attractions the region boasts include HMAS Swan dive wreck, Cape Naturaliste lighthouse, world renowned surfi ng locations, spectacular coastal hiking trails, Meelup Reserve and arts and crafts galleries.
