This stunning 16.89-ha property consists of two private homes plus ancillary buildings, multiple dams, and several paddocks. It is situated a 12-minute drive west of Denmark town towards Walpole. Although this property is zoned rural, its location on the tourist highway lends itself to further development, especially in the tourism sector.

Nature enthusiasts are drawn to Denmark for its unspoiled beaches, top-notch hiking trails, abundant wildlife, rolling terrain, majestic tall trees, and vibrant wildflowers. This eco-friendly, tidy town with inspirational, non-franchised shops is alive with community, culture, and the arts. Ancient forests and pristine stretches of coastline surround the town. Denmark has a vibrant wine trail, a dynamic café culture, and a good choice of eateries, including local cheesemakers and chocolatiers.
Situated opposite William Bay National Park and only 4 km from Elephant Rocks and Greens Pool, two of Western Australia’s Southern Coast’s best-loved landmarks, famous for turquoise waters and pristine white sands and protected from the waves of the Southern Ocean by granite boulders, enabling safe swimming, year-round. Mad Fish Bay and Waterfall Beach are a little further down the road and still within the National Park.
As you turn into the property’s driveway, the big main shed is on your left, while a paddock with a sheltered dam is on your right – paddock 2. The driveway then splits in two, with a very private 3x1x2 and a large study/4th bedroom home to the left – currently tenanted on a short-term basis.
Straight down the drive is the spacious main home, a 2x1x2 with a study/3rd bedroom. This home looks out over the large dam and is surrounded by a variety of established fruit trees and native forests, so it enjoys complete privacy from the other home and neighbouring property. Tucked behind the double carport is a light, bright studio apartment with a kitchenette and a bathroom overlooking the lovely side garden. Both homes and the studio face north, so enjoy lovely winter sun and light-filled rooms.
This property features several natural water catchment areas, including a permanent soak, one large dam, and two smaller dams. A winter creek runs the entire length of the northern boundary, feeding directly into the large dam and beyond. Both houses have a 55,000ltr water tank dedicated to the garden, while potable (drinking) water comes from the three tanks by the large shed. There is roof capacity to increase the number or size of water tanks, especially at the houses.
On your right, as you enter the property, there is a paddock with a small dam – paddock 2. The neighbouring property has recently planted rows of Lilly Pillies for screening, clearly identifiable by the row of green bags. This paddock is narrower on the highway end but widens as it goes towards the back boundary of the property.
Paddocks 1 and 3 can be accessed through a gate on the left. Paddock 3 runs behind the main shed and second home and has a lovely forested area on the north side, while paddock 1, the largest, is home to the permanent soak at the far end of the property. The paddocks have been used for grazing horses, sheep, goats, and cattle. Paddocks 1 and 3 are currently under agistment (not contracted).
There is a good selection of schools in Denmark. Denmark Primary School, Kwoorabup Nature School (Primary), Golden Hill Steiner School, which now goes up to year 10 and the Denmark Senior High. The WA College of Agriculture Denmark is a 560-hectare working farm and educational facility. This college offers various studies for Year 10, 11, and 12 students in an agricultural and trade/vocational-related context. There are two childcare centres – Gumnut Corner and Little Whalers. There is also a comprehensive school bus service with pickup and drop-off service on Bell Road, William Bay, roughly a 2-minute drive/ 1.4 km from the property.
Denmark is an easy 4.5-hour drive from Perth via Albany Hwy.
It is rare to find a property for sale in this location. Most properties are family-owned and have remained so for generations. With its two homes plus the studio, it is ideal for multiple buyers or intergenerational living—whether family or friends. Multiple options exist, but maybe consider renting one home and using the other.

• This property, like all properties in Denmark, is in a bushfire-prone area (additional planning and building requirements may apply to development on this site). There are no flood or heritage overlays.
• According to a 10-year data record, the average water temperature in Denmark in winter reaches 18.7°C, in spring 17.8°C, in summer 19.9°C, and in autumn 20.5°C. The best swimming season is from January to June when the water temperature seldom drops below 20°C. It conveniently coincides with fewer visitors, so often, you’ll have most of the pristine beaches all to yourself.
