LOVE FISHING? KITE SURFING? CAMPING?
SHARK BAY IS WHERE YOU WANT TO BE!!!
Perched high on the hill in the lovely seaside town of Denham, situated in the middle of the stunning World Heritage area of Shark Bay, and 26km from the famous Monkey Mia dolphins, is this marvelous and unusual home. With spectacular ocean views from the second storey, this is a beautiful spot to relax and watch the boats come and go from the town jetty, the changes in the weather and the magnificent sunsets. With easy access to some of the best fishing spots in the world, perfect kite surfing winds, wildlife in abundance and National Parks to explore there are endless recreational activities to keep the whole family happy.
Both levels of this property are self contained, offering the option of utilising it as one large or two smaller homes. Live in one or both, lease them, long or short term, there are plenty of possibilities. A quirky spiral staircase allows access between the upstairs and down, or can be closed off as required to create two separate residences. With a thriving tourist industry short term accommodation in Denham is in high demand during busy holiday periods, and long term leases offer good rent returns and there is often a shortage of rental properties available.
Upstairs is a one bedroom unit with en suite bathroom, spacious living area with kitchenette and an open plan study which can easily be converted into a second bedroom if required. The well protected veranda offers a second upstairs living space usable all year round. With easy access via a ramp to the side of the property the residents can come and go without intruding on the downstairs accommodation.
Downstairs the spiral staircase creates an attractive centre piece to the huge open plan living area. The newly renovated kitchen offers a chef's paradise with 5 burners gas cooking on a 900ml stainless stove, large pantry, stunning polished timber benchtops, double sink with mixer tap and a window overooking the sunlit gardens. French doors lead out to the north facing, courtyard garden, which is beautifully protected from the prevailing winds. There is one downstairs bedroom, with remodelled en suite bathroom plus laundry which also has a door leading to the garden area.
With a 5 kW photovoltaic solar system installed, the property currently produces more power than it uses. Zoned R12.5/30 this 1012m2 property has triplex subdivision potential, (STCA). In it's current incarnation there is plenty of room to park caravans, boats and vehicles as well as a garage with sunken pit for the keen home mechanic, plus a workshop with plenty storage space.
Within two minutes walking distance of the foreshore, the local pub, cafes and shops, as well as the main jetty and Denham's beautiful town beach, this home is in a superb location. Enjoy a pint looking out across the bay, catch some squid off the jetty, visit the town's World Heritage Centre, take the kids to the park and meander along the foreshore, all within a stone's throw of your own home. The handy location also makes this property ideal for short-term rental accommodation.
