Inside the incredible home on the very southern tip of Cable Beach, Broome 

Perched on the top of a prehistoric red cliff overlooking rolling turquoise waves, a house on the tip of Western Australia creates the illusion of standing on the edge of the Earth as visitors walk the path towards its front door. 

Located on Broome’s Gantheaume Point, a destination famed for its spectacular sunsets and 130 million-year history that dates back to dinosaurs, The Point House has been hailed as the region’s ‘most unique’ piece of real estate, inspiring passersby with its breathtaking views and impressive architecture.

Built in 1996 on the foundations of an old lighthouse keeper’s cottage that became a nun’s retreat, the five-bedroom home has been beautifully designed to honour the surrounding nature of rich, orange sand, coarse bush grass and jagged chunks of sandstone rock, bringing a sense of the ancient landscape inside.

The owners even used handfuls of the pindan clay sand native to the Kimberley region to colour the exterior walls so they blended with the natural backdrop.

The house, which has been described as ‘one of the most iconic on the West Australian coastline’, recently hit the market for the first time ever, and listing agent Caro Cunningham said she is already inundated with interest.

Ms Cunningham, who is overseeing the sale for real estate agency Ray White, called it a ‘real standout’ that is incomparable to any other house the area.

‘There’s nothing else that compares to it along the coastline,’ she told Daily Mail Australia. 

The house features a living room with vaulted timber ceilings inspired by a cathedral and a north-facing verandah that captures stunning sunset views

The sprawling homestead, rebuilt 25 years ago after a fire razed the house originally constructed there in 1970, features a living room with vaulted timber ceilings inspired by a cathedral and a north-facing verandah that captures stunning sunset views.

Ms Cunningham described Broome as a ‘highly sought-after’ destination that has seen a huge increase of interest since the pandemic began in early 2020.

She said she has seen a surge of buyers relocating north from Perth to escape the restrictions of continuing Covid lockdowns.

‘It’s a wonderful place to get away from it all,’ she added.

The median price of a house in Broome is just $485,000 (AUD), but the iconic nature of The Point House means it’s guaranteed to sell for considerably more.
