100 Forrest Street, Fremantle WA 6160

SOLD BY CONNIE HANDCOCK, WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS.

In a pretty streetscape brimming with character, a classic weatherboard cottage tells the story of its c.1904 origins, beautifully renewed and extended for modern living. This location is simply superb too: parks all around, the beach nearby, weekend sports for the kids, shopping and dining at George Street and Freo respectively, with coveted catchments for excellent local schools, including John Curtin College of the Arts.

Overlooking native gardens, the wraparound veranda is the perfect perch to enjoy the tree-lined atmosphere. Inside, jarrah floors span the entranceway and two original bedrooms; one an ideal study with built-in cabinetry, and the other, a master with walk-in robe, ceiling fan, and stylish dual-vanity ensuite with rainshower. Both have split-system air.

Stepping through to the new, luxurious touches are everywhere: polished concrete to walls of glass, skylights for light-filled spaces, and bespoke renovations completed in 2022 that merge past with present. There’s a cosy woodfire for winter, split-system air for all seasons, and stacker doors to the breezes and sheltered alfresco for summer – trailing greenery at its edges. The calacatta-style kitchen is exquisite: sleek appliances, scullery adjacent, and a central island lit by an LED strip pendant, complemented by built-in bench seating in the dining for family meals.

The laundry and family bathroom echo the contemporary style throughout, with a bedroom (complete with robes and split-system air) between them. Up the stairs is another bedroom, elevated in complete privacy, also with robes and split-system air. Underneath is the single garage for storage, accessed via the side driveway or through the alfresco courtyard, with three car parking bays completing it all – two out front, and one to the rear.

You’ll love this fresh take on a classic weatherboard, in a location that puts you in reach of every lifestyle amenity Freo is renowned for.
