12 Ocean Blue Loop, Peppermint Grove Beach

Just under a 2.5 hour easy-drive on Forrest Highway from Perth, halfway between Bunbury and Busselton, is the unique hamlet of Peppermint Grove Beach. Overlooking the eastern curve of Geographe Bay, this unique hideaway is set among bushland dunes with hilltop views of the ocean, providing splendid privacy in a quiet country community. This modern, two-story beach home is designed to capture the views, the sea-breeze and the relaxed coastal vibe of this special spot. Perched high on a hill, it has stunning, unimpeded views up the bay to the northeast and straight out over the Indian Ocean. Cantilever-style, the home is in two distinct parts. Downstairs; four bedrooms, a family bathroom with bath, laundry and master ensuite. Upstairs; lounge, dining and kitchen with the entertaining space opening onto a seaward-facing alfresco. As you enter the main door from the undercroft carport, where there is space for at least two vehicles, you enter a spacious hall of warm honey-coloured Tuart flooring and staircase that invites you up. To your left is a double bedroom with built-in-robes, a separate toilet and a family bathroom to share with other generous bedrooms alongside. The laundry area opens out from this bathroom to the rear yard. At the western end of the home is the master bedroom which features an adjoining door to the second bedroom (designed for families with small children or study). It also features a master ensuite with toilet, shower and vanity. New wool carpet is a feature in all bedrooms. Upstairs welcomes you to an expansive open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen area with winter wood stove, all under a lofty apex ceiling and ceiling fans. The floor is golden Tuart too. The modern kitchen is perfect for quiet dinners at home or entertaining weekend guests. It includes a large island bench with sink, gas cooktop, oven, pantry and fridge recess. But it's all about the views. The upper level opens onto a covered, decked balcony with views to tomorrow. Relax here with your morning coffee or watch the sunset with a local wine and favourite cheeses. All resting on a very generous 850 sqm block, a 10 minute drive into Capel for most of your shopping needs. Just 15 minutes north is the city of Bunbury, and 15 minutes south to Busselton for a broader range of services as required. Ocean Blue Loop offers the best of both worlds; country coastal charm, big city facilities close by. The home has the option to be offered fully furnished should you wish to use as a holiday home or as short stay accommodation (subject to approvals). This unique home will appeal to those looking for country quiet, retirement relaxation, family holiday memories or investors who understand the short-stay appeal of these holiday hideaways.
