Sensational Views With a Lock'n'Leave Lifestyle Are Yours!
Its time to secure your forever view over the ocean and the whole of Fremantle in this immaculate, light-filled townhouse. First time offered on the market since construction, this multi-level, luxury townhouse is easy to live in and comes with spectacular ocean views from two levels.
Tucked away behind the original home on the hill in South Street, this townhouse is a delight and surprise. A surprise in terms of space, privacy and quiet; a delight with expansive views, cool sea breezes and style.
An extra large courtyard welcomes you into the property. This space is where the owners entertain in summer as it is out of the direct sun providing a cooler space and heaps of room for large gatherings. It is private too, with no-one looking down into this area. There is even a spot where you can sit and watch the sunset over the ocean.
On entering the home, the first floor is the main living zone with sliding doors connecting the lounge to the front courtyard to extend the space for parties. With high ceilings on every level the whole house feels spacious and breezy. There are plenty of windows letting in light and the floors have a warm timber glow. The dining and kitchen are just around the stairwell but before you even notice them, you'll look straight out the wrap around windows to the view. It is a knockout, you can watch the ships sail in while cooking, cleaning and chatting at the breakfast bar! The kitchen is fantastic with plenty of quality stone bench space, pantry and separate broom cupboard but the best feature is that view. The sliding doors to the balcony extend this view and provide another sunny nook where you can sit and watch the movement of the boats and setting of the sun. On this floor is also a very handy and discreet powder room.
Downstairs you get a great bonus space that could be used for many purposes. This room can be a second sitting area, with a study nook and sliding doors to the rear courtyard. But there is also a full bathroom so it could double as a guest wing or for a bit of income, you could rent it out. Add a small kitchenette to the study nook and with access directly to the outside means a boarder could stay here easily. On this level is also a laundry and store room which the owners use as a study with separate access. And you don't have to march through your guest's room to drop off the laundry as there is a handy chute from above!
This area is really a teen retreat, a gym, a great space if you work from home or a craft room.
Back upstairs and to the top floor. Here are the three bedrooms. You have two good sized rooms looking over the front courtyard with another balcony to sit at, both with robes and a large bathroom to share. On the other side is the main bedroom, and again, you won't even notice the room as from here the views are absolutely fabulous! Panoramic ocean views, seeing the islands, the boats cruising towards the port and all of Fremantle is spread out before you. This is where you'll sit in the evening with a glass of wine, watching the sunset on every fine day. Here is where you'll watch the storms rolling in over the ocean, here is where you'll wake every morning to discover the colour of the sea today! The room itself is a comfortable size and comes with an ensuite and walk in robe. And another balcony to help enjoy that view!
There is storage everywhere in this townhouse, you have the store room, the laundry, a cupboard under the stairs, a full linen on the top floor, walk in pantry, broom cupboard, double robes in the two bedrooms and walk in robe in the main and of course, the garage. The double garage is very generous and is in the best position of all the townhouses to exit and enter from, going straight up the driveway, which is a one way loop around the front properties.
This is a fantastic home to use as a lock and leave. Very low maintenance and apart from the views, the location is also a huge bonus. Because it is tucked away from South street, you don't get the traffic noise but you do get easy access to all of Fremantle and South Fremantle, both in easy walking distance. You can take a 5 minute stroll and you're in Wray Ave, with its cafes, pubs, yoga and grocers. Close to Medical as well. Or jump on one of the buses and you're into Fremantle in minutes. Or turn left and head off to South Beach, the Fremantle Sailing club or to enjoy the trendy South Terrace Cafe strip with all its offerings.
The townhouse is as pet friendly as South Fremantle so no problems bringing your fur babies
If you're looking to downsize but are active and looking for a lock and leave, this is perfect. If you're a professional couple or starting to think about retiring and looking for a beautifully maintained home, an easy lifestyle and great neighbours this ticks the boxes. If a forever view is on your wish list, then you need to come and see what's on offer before it goes...
