5 Dunkley Avenue, Applecross WA 6153

With riverside parkland out front, long views across the water to Dalkeith, and a shore that feels like your own private beach to watch the dolphins and swans, this is a serene location for a much-loved family home. On the market for the first time since it was created by the builder owner for his own family, it is designed for gathering and entertaining, with plenty of space for everyone: pool, poolside studio and kitchen, games room, two living areas, lift, several terraces, and a massive undercroft with extensive parking, workshop, storage zones, and space for the boat.

Arranged around an impressive central staircase, the main living level embraces the river views and flows easily to outdoor terraces to enjoy the natural beauty of the location. A long separate living room has bay windows to the riverside, and overlooks the stunning pool and gardens to the rear.

Facing the river, kitchen with its European appliances, leads to a northern terrace to enjoy the view, and beyond the open-plan living and dining is an impressive games room and bar on the way to another terrace overlooking the pool. The alfresco area is vast, with two gazebos, serene low-maintenance gardens, and a wonderful bonus for family flexibility: a two-roomed studio, bathroom, and a curved kitchen that can open up to the pool for parties and extended family gatherings.

More verandas wrap around the upper floor, and you can step out from the expansive master suite for an even more spectacular perspective on the river. Also on this level is a family bathroom and three more bedrooms, including one with a bay window looking to the water and another with doors to the river front terrace. Everything is inter-connected, with easy internal access from the undercroft to all levels via the lift or stairs.

The home is solar-powered, with reverse cycle air-conditioning, lush reticulated gardens, alarm security, and the wonderful practicality of all of that space for vehicles, boat, kayaks and workshop below.

Here, on the curve of the river at Lucky Bay, is a very special place for the next family privileged to call it home.

This sale and move must have been the most professional and smooth-flowing that we have experienced, having done 20 over the years.

The key to this feeling was Catherine, a charming and lovely young lady whose communication skills were without question the very best. Nothing was too much, and her concern for us and our needs was beyond reproach; we feel that she became one of our family, and we will miss her interaction and friendliness.

Catherine made every step of selling my property easy

Catherine and the team are very approachable and really make it feel like you’re on the same side! This family feel at White House have all the knowledge we needed regarding comparative sales, previously sold properties that were very similar to mine, and exact price guides. I can’t recommend Catherine enough, as she really does know the real estate market and made me feel very safe in the sale of the family home.

Thank you, Carlie!

From the moment I met Carlie, I knew she was the right agent for us. She’s professional, approachable, and truly knows the North Coogee market—because she lives there. She listened to our needs, kept us informed, and never pressured us. Her calm, honest approach made selling far less stressful. Her team was also fantastic. I’d recommend Carlie without hesitation—she turned a daunting process into a smooth and positive experience.

Highly recommended

Well handled from start to finish. Helped me with knowledgeable decisions to overcome a couple of small hurdles during the selling process. I had the option of using a previous agent, but I’m glad I switched and decided to trust Curtis. No doubt I made the right choice.
