The Old Cheese Factory Property Details
Award-winning luxury meets peaceful country living at this beautifully transformed former cheese factory in the heart of the Margaret River wine region.
Blending award-winning architecture with peaceful country living, The Old Cheese Factory is a truly unique escape in the heart of the Margaret River wine region. Once a working cheese factory, this remarkable property has been transformed into a sophisticated retreat where contemporary luxury, industrial elegance and rural tranquillity come together to create an unforgettable stay.
Winner of multiple 2024 Master Builders Awards, the home has been thoughtfully designed to celebrate its history while offering every modern comfort. Soaring cathedral ceilings, striking architectural details and expansive windows fill the home with natural light, while warm timber finishes and carefully curated interiors create a welcoming atmosphere throughout.
At the heart of the home, the spacious open-plan living area invites everyone to come together. Relax beside the crackling wood-burning fireplace in winter, enjoy movie nights on the oversized lounge, or simply soak in the peaceful paddock views stretching beyond the gardens. A second lounge provides a quiet retreat for reading or conversation, while the loft sitting area within the master suite offers a private space to unwind.
The gourmet kitchen is designed for entertaining, featuring premium appliances, a large island bench, Nespresso coffee machine and everything needed to prepare memorable meals. Gather around the generous dining table indoors or step outside to the expansive alfresco, where long lunches, local wine and sunset dinners become the highlight of every day. The rolling lawns and surrounding farmland create a beautiful sense of space and serenity rarely found so close to Margaret River's renowned attractions.
Sleeping up to eight guests, the home has been thoughtfully configured for families and groups. Upstairs, the luxurious master suite features a king bed, private sitting area and beautifully appointed ensuite complete with freestanding bath and walk-in shower. Downstairs you'll find two additional king bedrooms, a twin room, a second luxurious bathroom with freestanding bath, a separate powder room and a fully equipped laundry, making longer stays effortless.
Comfort is assured in every season with split-system air conditioning, central heating and cooling, ceiling fans throughout, dedicated workspace facilities and a cosy wood fireplace. During winter, a complimentary starter pack of firewood is provided so you can settle in from the moment you arrive.
Perfectly positioned in the heart of wine country, The Old Cheese Factory places you within easy reach of some of the region's most celebrated wineries, breweries and restaurants. Spend your days discovering cellar doors including Bettenays, Hay Shed Hill, Woodlands, Fermoy Estate and Juniper, enjoy craft beer at Beerfarm or Cheeky Monkey, indulge at the Margaret River Chocolate Factory, or explore nearby Gracetown Beach, North Point and the spectacular coastline.
Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, enjoying a family getaway or escaping with friends for a weekend of exceptional food and wine, The Old Cheese Factory offers an extraordinary Margaret River experience where luxury, space and the beauty of the South West come together.
