Welcome to Carpe Artes, a home that celebrates creativity, play, and connection in the heart of Margaret River’s bushland. Set on eight private acres and designed with families in mind, this beautiful and peaceful retreat blends modern luxury with a touch of whimsy—complete with its own treehouse-style cubby, flying fox, sandpit, slide, climbing walls, and swings. It’s a paradise for children—and a secret delight for adults too.
Just three minutes from Surfers Point and ten minutes from town, Carpe Artes offers the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Nearby cycle and walk trails link you directly to Gnarabup Beach, the White Elephant Café, and The Common Bistro, making it easy to explore the coast and unwind with a coffee or glass of wine by the sea. From its elevated position, the home enjoys peaceful views stretching toward the Indian Ocean, creating a true sense of calm and escape.
As part of the Carpe Luxury Escapes collection, Carpe Artes sits alongside Carpe Vino and Carpe Mykonos, forming a private 24-acre enclave of architect-designed homes. Each property enjoys its own eight acres of bushland and shares access to a private tennis court and pavilion—a peaceful setting for a friendly hit surrounded by towering trees and native birdlife. Racquets and balls are provided.
Inside, the home is stylish, spacious, and thoughtfully appointed, with natural tones and large windows that frame both the surrounding forest and glimpses of the ocean beyond.
