Classic stone, creative renewal - Open Saturday 18th April by Appointment

In a quiet street lined with magnificent gumtrees, a completely delightful stone home tells the story of a decade of bespoke renovation with loving care and natural flair. A 21st century take on the use of recycled materials makes for a really organic feel with a contemporary edge, as original character easily co-exists with the new.
The wide jarrah timbers of a broad bullnose verandah wrap around the home, which presents the classic features of limestone, tuck-pointed brick and high double-hung sash windows. Natural textures continue in a perfectly designed little front garden of native plantings, gravel and railway sleepers.
Inside, you are immediately welcomed to a large, high-ceilinged room of the original cottage. A pot belly stove is built into a jarrah fire surround and the room is wired for integrated sound. A wide opening leads through to the hub of the home: an air-conditioned kitchen with glossy white cabinetry, integrated double-drawer dishwasher and a pair of Bosch wall ovens. A slash of original brick in the kitchen wall exposes the home’s hundred years of history, offering a clever contrast to the new.
The home spans out from this central hub, with marri floors flowing throughout: three bedrooms and a gorgeous bathroom with two rain showers and a circular basin sitting above a fabulous piece of thick jarrah. One bedroom looks out to the front verandah, and another has double doors to the rear living space.
There, the alfresco really is an extension of the home, enclosed for relaxation and entertaining in all seasons. Exposed trusses soar above in the high-pitched iron roof, travertine tiling is underfoot and there is space for long table dining and a lounge area. A raised timber platform offers built-in seating, and the barbecue, sink and fridge are all structured with recycled timber cabinetry to blend with the organic feel.
A rustic Oregon door leads to the exterior, and there is extensive storage hidden under the deck and inside the timber seating. Inside the home, a dropdown ladder leads to a large attic space, and there’s plenty more storage in the laundry.
This is a totally charming home in a great neighbourhood: there’s a café close by, you can walk to the park and even take a longer stroll to the centre of Freo. Everything has been done to renew this stone classic with care and imagination, so all you have to do is move in and soak up the atmosphere.
