1/38 John Street, North Fremantle WA 6159

Walk to the river in moments, pick up your morning coffee on the way home and return to an inviting, idyllic home nestled on one of North Fremantle's most prestigious streets.

Just metres to the Swan River and the green playing fields of Gilbert Fraser Reserve, and next door to North Fremantle Primary School, this is an ideal home to settle into life in this wonderful riverside pocket.

With an enviable John Street address, here you are just minutes to all the best North Fremantle offers. Start your mornings taking the dog to Gilbert Fraser Reserve before picking up a coffee from the local coffee van. Unwind after work and meet a friend for an evening walk along the river. Spend your weekends at Port or Leighton Beach and take your pick of iconic coastal dining spots, like COAST or Bib and Tucker. Stroll to the Queen Victoria Street village for dinner at The Bridge House, drinks at Mrs Brown Bar or to grab a pizza from Autentici Pizza e Gelato. Or head over the bridge to The Left Bank, Tradewinds or Jetty Bar & Eats. This lovely location is also close to popular community hubs. Watch the football at Gilbert Fraser Reserve, spend Saturdays at North Fremantle Social Farm or catch up with friends over sunset bowls at North Freo Bowlo.

A solidly built original 1979 build in a quiet and friendly group of 28 dwellings, this lovely villa enjoys the premier position, right off John Street with its own private driveway. Thoughtfully and beautifully renovated, there is nothing left to do but move in and enjoy.

With two bedrooms and two living spaces, this house will appeal to professional couples, singles, downsizers or retirees looking for a low-maintenance home. It would also suit a young family, with fenced courtyard gardens and ultra-convenient location next door to North Fremantle Primary School, with local childcare within easy reach as well.

A beautiful Western red cedar front door opens to a front lounge room that creates an inviting introduction, with space to curl up with a book or enjoy a quiet evening - or use it as a home office or playroom. Fresh white walls throughout the home complement the timeless warmth of sheoak and jarrah floorboards, complemented by beautiful Western red cedar windows and doors.

Capturing both the north and southern light, the open-plan kitchen, living and dining has a bright and uplifting feel.

The beautifully appointed kitchen makes cooking a pleasure. Granite benchtops are paired with beautiful honey-coloured cabinets with wine storage and quality appliances, including a Miele oven and plate warmer, semi-integrated Miele dishwasher, Siemens induction cooktop, Schweigen island rangehood and LG fridge and freezer. Blum fittings bring a smooth, soft-close finish to drawers and cabinet doors while a lovely bay window with Aneeta windows offers a nice connection to the rear courtyard garden with frangipani trees and stone water feature wall.

Entertainers will love the dining, with fantastic storage in the form of a stunning built-in sideboard for plates and glassware, while built-in bookshelves nearby are another thoughtful inclusion.

One of the lovely things about this home is that almost every room connects to the garden. The bright and airy family room opens up via bifold doors to the front courtyard, a relaxing green space with star jasmine, wisteria and an English mulberry, while the dining flows into the back courtyard garden.

There is nice separation between the two lovely bedrooms. The main bedroom has an Elfa wardrobe fitout and twin doors that open up to the leafy front courtyard garden, while the cosy second bedroom connects to the back garden.

A large, north-facing fully tiled bathroom offers a luxurious spa bath by the bay window, inviting a long soak at the end of the day. The bathroom has a large shower and engineered stone to the vanity and spa surround. A laundry cupboard neatly incorporates the washing facilities into the bathroom space, with Miele washing machine beneath the sink.

Comfort has been carefully considered, with ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning, natural gas bayonets fitted inside and out, Veneta honeycomb blinds and security screens at the front and back. An instantaneous gas hot water system with a recirculating pump offers convenient temperature selection. The gardens are reticulated and encompass a poured aggregate driveway with off-street parking for two cars.
