Hidden Inner "Freo" Sanctuary
The heart of Fremantle's vibrant “West End” is the fitting setting for this professional down-sizer’s dream of a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom first-floor apartment that is tranquilly tucked away in the middle of a secure building and is arguably the largest in the complex.
Secured behind wrought-iron gates, the impressive entry corridor is reminiscent of Fremantle's famous whaling tunnel, with its exposed limestone walls paying homage to the port city’s fabulous architectural heritage. While there is a lovely sense of the past, the stylish apartment is modern urban living exemplified.
Unusually for an inner-city apartment, there are not one, but two, courtyards that offer you a choice of outdoor living spaces – be it capturing the morning sun at the rear or the afternoon light out front. Private, low-maintenance and the ideal “lock-up-and-leave” – this magnificent pad is an oasis of peace and quiet.
In fact, the front courtyard doubles as your gated entrance into the property and is also accessible from a spacious and carpeted second bedroom with mirrored built-in wardrobes. The king-sized master suite at the back of the apartment seamlessly connects to the adjacent alfresco-entertaining courtyard that is bordered by a drying courtyard and easy-care gardens. Separate “his and hers” built-in double robes here are complemented by an intimate ensuite bathroom with a stone vanity, shower, toilet and feature down lighting.
In between, the main bathroom plays host to a separate toilet, a wash room with a shower, stone vanity and down lights and a cleverly-concealed European-style laundry that makes the most of the wall and floor space on offer. A well-equipped kitchen is the headline act of the huge open-plan living and dining area where gleaming wooden floorboards, a double linen press and direct alfresco-courtyard access meet sparkling stone bench tops, double sinks, a water-filter tap, ample storage options, a gas cooktop, Blanco electric-oven and exhaust-fan appliances and a stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher for good measure.
It is all about the lifestyle here though, with all the excitement and activity of cosmopolitan Fremantle at the doorstep. Offering secure off-street parking for one car, everywhere you want to go is within walking distance, including wonderful heritage buildings, galleries, bookshops, markets, cinemas, beautiful Bathers Beach, the Esplanade parklands, The University of Notre Dame, public transport, the eclectic shopping and cafes of High Street and a huge array of restaurants, cafes and bars. This is Fremantle at its very finest!
