Tucked among towering trees and wrapped in the soft hush of the Clyde River, this rustic 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath bungalow offers a lifestyle that whispers, slow down. With cathedral-style whitewashed ceilings and a layout that flows like the river out back, the open-concept main level blends charm with function. The kitchen – equal parts country cottage and creative command centre – features plenty of workspace, rustic open shelving, and a central island for morning coffees or midnight snacks. A cozy sunroom frames leafy views and glimmers of water, practically begging for a good book and a quiet moment.The primary bedroom feels like a cabin within a cabin, with its private deck for sipping tea under the stars, plus a convenient 2-piece ensuite. The main floor also includes laundry, a foyer warmed by a wood stove, and two additional bedrooms for guests, work-from-home setups, or kids who love to roam. Outside, you’re surrounded by just under an acre of woodsy peace – complete with trails that wind through the trees, a fire pit ready for marshmallow missions, a detached screened-in gazebo, and a circular paved driveway thats as practical as it is charming. The waterfront is perfect for paddleboarding, wading, or simply reflecting; it’s too shallow for motorboats, which means nature gets the starring role. “Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.” (Emerson had a point.) Just 30 minutes to Perth, this rental is for those who want more than a house – it’s for those seeking stillness, storybook sunsets, and something a little more soulful.
