About this property

River/ocean views, chef's kitchen: spacious luxury 2BR / 2.5bath apartment.

Light-filled spacious 2 storey townhouse, luxury furnishings & appliances, solar HWS, artworks, smart TV, DVD, board games, books, leather lounge, designer furniture, quality bedding, solar HWS, timber floors, Persian rugs, stocked pantry. Totally equipped. Fast internet, Netflix, Chromecast & more.

In the town centre, near everything, but still peaceful.

The chef's kitchen has all the utensils, gadgets and appliances you could possibly want.

Upstairs balcony: unobstructed water/tree views, candles, comfy chairs, side tables & rug.

Downstairs deck: amazing firepit, BBQ, table & chairs, tree & garden views.

EACH bedroom has ensuite & balcony with seating. BBQ, table, chairs, herbs. Lockup garage. The townhouse is in the front row of the complex so your view & privacy is not ruined by other properties & garages in the foreground.

Furnished and equipped with the utmost comfort and luxury: a home not a hotel. Top quality appliances throughout. Luxury bedding - feather duvets for winter, waffle weave cotton blankets in summer. Front bedroom: adjustable Tempur massage bed.

Because I live here some of the time, you will find the place is set up with all the extras that go with a modern home. You are welcome to read my books (please leave them behind when you leave), access the contents of my pantry and use my appliances! The furniture is luxurious, the artworks quirky. As it is more a home than a commercial venture, please treat it and its contents with the respect you treat your own.

Most suited to adults and responsible children. pet-friendly subject to advance approval and a modest fee of $100 per booking.

From each booking I make a micro-loan via kiva.org. Kiva is a nonprofit organisation. Amounts as small as $25 can help someone - usually a woman - start or expand a business. The effects can be life changing. empowering people who are living in poverty to make meaningful choices for basic human rights.

Three Day Break in Augusta
Eclectic collection of art, books and kitchen ware and home wares. Diligent searching through packed kitchen drawers will delight as you will encounter many interesting items before finding the one you want. Single mattress was too thin and uncomfortable so we used the queen which was resting against the wall. Love the items, just need a little more space and Judith is very generous and trusting to allow us to use so many luxury items. Location is great.

Not good ..
.. to be fair to potential renters wanting a relaxing holiday the owner needs to be up front on a couple of points. The property is not on Manning Rd but fronts the main road through Augusta, the road traffic noise was loud, very loud and constant from early am until late in the evening. The bedrooms are upstairs with no a/c! It was unbearably hot 🥵 and we had to try and sleep downstairs on the lounge the first 2 nights. The building construction provides no insulation from noise or the elements. It’s a small, cluttered space with no room for the personal things you would bring along on a holiday… “Relax to the max” is what we were expecting, not what we got and not happy.

Wine, walks and enough shoes 😉
Marvellous location and great host. A warm welcome with personal tour and special gift set us up for a nice stay. The house is full with great high quality appliances and wonderful art to admire. We brought too many things which we struggled to give a space in this place. Feather doona is marvellous and warm, but not good if you are asthmatic (change out before you go to bed). Location is so good that we considered buying around the corner!

The townhouse is beautifully positioned for views and sea breezes. It is genuinely a home and so lacks nothing. The furnishings are comfortable and aesthetically tasteful all at the same time.

Amazing Holiday House with Magnificent River views
This home was located in the heart of Augusta making it easy to access local variety shops in walking distance. The 2 storey town house is modern, clean and has all the mod cons in the kitchen and awesome spices free to use in teh pantry. Plenty of room to relax and unwind either on the lower or top balcony (which was my husband I favourite) and watch the sun go down!

Luxury and comfort
A beautiful, well equipped and comfortable home. We were very happy staying here despite the bad weather, also very handy to the shops at Augusta. Very responsive host, thank you Judith. The only thing I would add (which may well be obvious to most people) is that the gorgeous view is from the master bedroom balcony and not from the main level where you would spend time socialising. Nevertheless a gorgeous place.

About the host

Hosted by Judith Fordham

Host profile image
I’m an author, a public speaker, a criminal lawyer and a forensic specialist. I'm a scuba diver and am working on learning to talk underwater. I love wine, shoes and handbags. I split my time between Molloy Island and Augusta in the South-West of Western Australia. I love this region and its people: its world-class food and wine (oh that’s right, I said wine already). I love to travel. I’ve been a guest many times and I’m now hosting also.

Why they chose this property

Perfect for having guests while I am at home and also for hosting. Each bedroom having its own ensuite is a major bonus. I love the fresh air, the views, the feeling of space and light, and the relaxation. Comfortable beds and top quality linen is great at the end of the day. I love it.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location. Convenient, quiet, easy reach of restaurants and wineries. Whale watching in winter. Go here (you'll need to cut and paste into the address bar of your browser) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=81mITzZrcDk
