The Residence

Architectural Elegance, Defined by Nature

Latitude 35°5 – an exclusive haven tucked away in the serene enclave of Goode Beach – beckons travellers in search of luxury, elegance, and nature, gracefully combined. Framed by pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and the lush expanse of Torndirrup National Park, this stunning residence emerges effortlessly from native bushland, perched magnificently atop a granite outcrop. From the whisper of ocean breezes rustling the eucalyptus trees to the gentle rhythm of waves against the shore, the residence offers sweeping panoramas that encompass the beautiful turquoise waters of Frenchman Bay, sculpting a serene backdrop of breathtaking beauty.

This is your gateway to Western Australia’s wild southern frontier

Inside Latitude 35°5, the spirit of contemporary luxury converges seamlessly with the surrounding environment. Designed by renowned Grounds Kent Architects, the elegant interior showcases natural textures and sophisticated simplicity, highlighted by judicious use of local granite, imported marble, and warm travertine. Each space thoughtfully dissolves into the next, with walls seemingly disappearing to invite nature in as an honoured guest. Bathed in abundant natural light, the open-plan living and dining areas are elevated by refined architectural touches, including vaulted ceilings, stylish lighting features, and an impressive fireplace, making it the perfect setting for cosy evenings by the fire, accompanied by a select choice from the property's 160-bottle wine cellar.

However, it is perhaps the expansive master suite that truly captures the essence of indulgent escapism. As morning arrives softly over Frenchman Bay, wake up gently in a plush king-sized bed to panoramic views of pristine coastlines and distant islands right outside your window. The ensuite itself, an impeccably luxurious private spa sanctuary, shelters a spectacular freestanding bathtub ideally positioned against floor-to-ceiling windows, delivering possibly Western Australia's most astounding bath experience – an immersive panorama of ocean, shifting skies, and unspoiled national park. With carefully curated guest suites and a separate children's wing, Latitude 35°5 ensures each visitor shares in an effortless luxury while retaining ample privacy and comfort.

Beyond its architectural excellence and luxurious comforts, the surrounding landscapes provide endless invitations for exploration and discovery. Adventure seekers and nature lovers will find themselves steps away from some of Western Australia's most iconic beaches: Misery Beach’s crystal-clear waters, the lush trails along the Bald Head hiking track, and the awe-inspiring natural sculptures of nearby coastal locations like The Gap. Wander further afield for a scenic drive through Albany's magnificent Great Southern eucalyptus forests, their towering grandeur providing a gentle contrast to the coastal serenity. Upon returning, guests can unwind on the expansive balconies and terraces with a glass of wine, savouring the distant sounds of the ocean mingling with the calls of native birds.
