Suburb profile
Courtenay is a welcoming smaller community in Augusta Margaret River, with a settled community character.

Families and commuters make up much of the community, with plenty of young families in the mix.
The town centre holds its own, with enough local flavour to make staying close to home appealing. There is a settled, neighbourly feel to the area that rewards people who like knowing their patch.
The area offers approachable housing costs alongside a lifestyle that still feels complete.
