A beautiful, heritage-listed homestead overlooking the Harvey Estuary. Country charm and the best in modern-day comforts come together at Allandale – the perfect ode to one of Western Australia’s pioneering families: the Dawes. Once the home of Mandurah canning industry pioneer Louis Dawe, Allandale is a lovingly restored, limestone abode that continues to age gracefully along the Harvey Estuary’s shore. Built for Dawe and his family in the early 1900s, Allandale once comprised six large rooms, including a 2.5-metre-deep buttery. Today, the now four-bedroom, two-bathroom holiday home has been upgraded to suit the wants and needs of the 21st century traveller. Inside, find a mix of country-contemporary furnishings that complement the home’s original limestone exterior. Little nods to the home’s 100-year-old lineage – a stained glass “Allandale” window sits above the front door and copies of old canning labels and photos from the Dawes family album sit proudly on rendered and limestone walls – can also be found throughout the homestead, which still has the same idyllic, uninterrupted view of the estuary it had when it was first built all those years ago. Set on 3.5 acres of rolling lawns, direct access to the water and with its own tennis court, Allandale presents a dreamy, historic homestay for lovers of history, architecture, nature and idyllic relaxation.
