59 West Coast Drive, Watermans Bay.

Positioned on one of Perth's most iconic stretches of coastline, 59 West Coast Drive, Watermans Bay offers a front-row seat to nature's finest performances. From spectacular sunsets and dramatic winter storms to migrating whales, birds of prey, and rich marine life, this is a lifestyle like no other - immersed in the beauty of land and sea. Just across the road lies the protected Marmion Marine Park - Western Australia's first marine sanctuary - offering some of the best snorkelling along the metropolitan coastline. Explore underwater limestone reefs, deep trenches, and overhangs that are home to more than 130 species of fish including snapper, whiting, tailor, herring, and sardines. You'll also encounter stingrays, octopus, and - in the early evening - local rays gliding near the shoreline. During the season, salmon schools chase bait balls right to the shore, and even Southern Right whales are known to bring their calves into the bay to rest. Set in a prized section of West Coast Drive where just six homes enjoy underground power, this residence benefits from uninterrupted ocean views with no power lines or visual obstructions. With a wide 19.5-metre frontage and elevated outlook, it captures the full sweep of the coastline from Fremantle in the south to Hillarys Marina in the north - a truly spectacular setting that's rarely available. Built in 1997, this thoughtfully designed home makes the most of its position and layout. The main living, dining, and kitchen zone is located on the ground floor, with expansive windows and sliding doors that frame the ocean views and connect seamlessly to the front lawn and rear alfresco. The front-facing sliding doors are made from 11mm thick toughened glass - designed to block out noise and withstand harsh coastal storms. The modern kitchen features quality finishes throughout, including Blum soft-close drawers and ample storage, making everyday living and entertaining a breeze. Upstairs, the master suite is a standout - a 6.7-metre-wide retreat with soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling glass that captures uninterrupted ocean views. There's plenty of room for a sitting area or parents' retreat, creating the perfect sanctuary to unwind, watch the waves roll in, and enjoy the peace and privacy of this elevated space. The suite also includes built-in robes and a private ensuite. Downstairs, the children's wing features three generously sized bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a second living area or kids' retreat - ideal for separation of space and flexible family living. This level flows out to a private, covered alfresco zone and a low-maintenance backyard. Above the garage, a spacious and air-conditioned loft offers endless versatility - ideal as a teenager's hangout, games room, home gym, studio or guest accommodation. Watermans Bay is one of Perth's smallest and most charming coastal suburbs, steeped in history and surrounded by natural beauty. From Star Swamp Reserve and native birdlife to secluded reef breaks and café culture, this location blends tranquility with convenience. And with over 10 private and public schools within 4km, easy access to transport, and just 20 minutes to the CBD, it offers the perfect balance of lifestyle and practicality.
