12 Yalgardup Place, Margaret River WA 6285

Built in 1996, this functional and spacious home is very peacefully located in close proximity to all the conveniences of town. It really is the best of both worlds.

Placed privately on a gentle sloping 1.34ha parkland cleared block it is located just 2.5km from the town centre and within walking distance to local schools and shops as well as being very close to parks and recreation facilities.

The most commonly used entry to the home is through the double carport which then leads into the living areas and the home flows from there.

The open plan living area is flooded with natural light and adjoining, is a spacious alfresco deck which opens on the northern side of the home.

On the eastern end of the home is the Japanese inspired master suite complete with a huge walk-in robe, separate bathroom with deep bath and rain head shower. The second bedroom/nursery or home office adjoins the master bedroom.

With a double door leading onto the deck from the master bedroom, there is privacy, serenity and a great outlook over the garden, water feature and pond. The sliding doors into the robe, the parquetry flooring, blinds and styling all enhance the Japanese feeling and this itself creates a sense of peace and calm.

The colours and styling of the bathroom are also in line with the Japanese style and are extremely practical with the bath deep enough for two people. This end of the home can easily be shut off from the rest of the house with a single door separating this area from the living space. From this point of view, the home may be well used as a B & B by a new owner as it can be easily equipped to have independent but serviceable accommodation.

The living area has soaring ceilings over the dining and kitchen, all built around the deck and looking to the north giving the home the ability to heat itself making it definitely an environmental winner. For the Margaret River ambiance, the slow combustion fire in the living area not only warms the house but creates a cosy atmosphere for the winter months. From the living areas, the outlook encompasses trees, sky and the expanse of the landscape.

The deck is cleverly designed with a 55,000 litre rainwater tank underneath (which is plumbed to the house but you can switch over to mains if needs be). The deck is large enough to do plenty of outdoor entertaining and double the size of the living area.

The well-appointed and recently refurbished kitchen has push to open & soft closing drawers and doors, walk-in pantry and a coffee nook as well as strip lighting which is soft on the eyes and also effective. There is a large free standing stove/oven as well as a two drawer dishwasher, granite benches and a privacy screen from the dining area. A glass door at the end of the kitchen allows direct access to the deck and allows more light to flood into the home.

On the opposite side of the living area and through another door to the wing on the north eastern wing of the home are the two spare bedrooms, bathroom and laundry.

The fourth bedroom is very large and at present has a queen size bed, wardrobe space and a lounge suite which is great accommodation for family and friends, a large bedroom for teenagers, a playroom or second living area.
The gardens consist of raised garden beds with vegetables and herbs as well as a large array of fruit trees offering a selection which includes but is not limited to; almonds chestnuts, apple, pear, apricot, avocado, lemon, lime, orange, mandarins and pomegranate. The stand of trees towards the front of the block gives the property the 'Margaret River' country feel whilst being in town.

The gardens are reticulated off the mains and are all retained.

The shed at the rear of the lot offers a workshop and garaging area; it is powered and has water connected. It is approximately 6m x 9m and has a Roll-A-Door at the front for a vehicle or boats, trailers, caravans etc.
