Baudin On Bay—Family Escape by the Foreshore

Summary:

In the heart of Dunsborough, this welcoming home sits directly opposite a leafy foreshore park, just steps from the calm waters of Geographe Bay. A perfect blend of relaxation and convenience, it is within walking distance of cafés, boutiques, and coastal walking trails. With a fully enclosed garden featuring a trampoline, swings, and a treehouse, it’s ideal for families. Unwind on the wraparound verandah, enjoy alfresco dining, or cosy up by the wood heater after a day of adventure.



The Space:

Shaded by peppermint trees, this charming home offers plenty of indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy. The wraparound verandah is perfect for soaking up the surroundings, with an inviting hanging chair, comfortable seating, and a wine barrel table for relaxed afternoons. The front deck overlooks a beautiful foreshore park, providing a peaceful outlook just steps from the beach. In the fully enclosed backyard, kids can play freely on the trampoline, swings, and treehouse while parents unwind in the garden.



Inside, the open-plan living and dining area is bright and stylish, featuring a large wooden table, a plush lounge, and a flat-screen TV. A wood heater ensures warmth on cooler nights, while reverse-cycle air conditioning and ceiling fans keep the home comfortable year-round. The well-equipped kitchen includes modern appliances, ample counter space, and a Nespresso pod coffee machine to start the morning right. Air conditioning in the main living area and three of the bedrooms ensures year-round comfort, while ceiling fans provide a cooling breeze.



The primary bedroom features a king bed, TV, and DVD player, while the second king bedroom provides another restful retreat. A third bedroom offers a queen bed and TV, and the fourth is ideal for children with two single beds. Two bathrooms, including one with a bathtub, add extra convenience.



A full laundry with a washing machine and drying racks ensures longer stays are effortless. Off-street parking makes it easy to explore the surrounding area, whether you're heading into town, to the beach, or on a scenic drive through the region.



A starter pack of wood is provided during the winter months only (June – August). This includes kindling, firelighters, matches, and wood. Axes are not supplied due to safety reasons. Additional wood may be purchased from a nearby fuel station or hardware store.
