Ocean Beach Retreat
Ocean Beach Retreat
Property Description
The space
Step inside and the first thing you'll notice is the light. Floor-to-ceiling sliding doors run along the front of the house, framing views over the garden and bushland to Wilson Inlet and the opening to Ocean Beach.
The open-plan living and dining area is split-level, with timber floors, a comfortable lounge, a round dining table for six and original artworks chosen by the owner. Reverse-cycle air conditioning keeps it comfortable year-round. There is a wood burning heater for cozy nights in the cooler months.
Slide the doors open and the main living spaces flow out to a wide, covered timber deck that runs the length of the house. There is a gas BBQ undercover on the deck. With swivel chairs, an outdoor lounge and a hanging bird feeder for the local birds, it's the spot for morning coffee and long, slow evenings.
Below the deck, a sweep of lawn, coastal plantings and a stepping-stone path lead through the gardens, which include the vegetable patch that guests are welcome to harvest.
For quiet mornings, relax in the sunlit sitting room with its French doors open to capture the light sea breeze. There is an outdoor dining area under the dappled shade of the pergola for leisurely meals in the sheltered garden courtyard.

The neighbourhood:
Ocean Beach is Denmark's favourite coastal pocket, where Wilson Inlet meets the Southern Ocean. You're a 3km drive from the surf at Ocean Beach, the sheltered water at Prawn Rock Channel, and the inlet for fishing, paddling and walking. The Bibbulmun Track is close by and Lights Beach and Denmark town, with its cafés, galleries and markets, are both a 6 minute drive away. Greens Pool, Elephant Rocks, Albany. The Porongurup National Park, and the region's wineries are an easy day out.

FIREWOOD NOTICE:
Due to a State-wide firewood shortage, firewood will not be supplied during the warmer months November to April. The property is equipped with a reverse-cycle air conditioner ensuring you stay comfortable year-round.
During the colder months (May–October), we do our best to provide enough firewood for two nights. You’re also welcome to bring your own dirt and bark free firewood or purchase firewood locally from hardware stores, petrol stations or the firewood stand on Harlequin Street in Denmark. This approach helps protect local forests and complies with Western Australia’s biosecurity rules.
