Having stood the test of time for more than a century before undergoing a stunning renovation and extension to its rear no more than only a few years ago, this charming 3 bedroom 1 bathroom haven enjoys the best of both worlds, as well as allowing you to embrace a quintessential Fremantle lifestyle less than a kilometres from the famous waters of the Fishing Boat Harbour.
An eclectic combination of limestone, brick and weatherboard solidifies the residence’s foundations, with soaring high ceilings, solid wooden Jarrah floorboards, tall feature skirting boards and other original items of nostalgia help preserving the property’s character of yesteryear. A gated garden entrance to the west-facing front verandah, whilst a large master bedroom off the entry plays host to a ceiling fan, a working fireplace, a gorgeous ceiling rose and built-in wardrobes and storage options.
An eye-catching ceiling rose graces the separate lounge room, whilst both spare bedrooms sit in between the master and living space. The second bedroom is massive and has built-in robes and storage, a ceiling fan and can easily become your master retreat if you need it to be. A giant third bedroom also has built-in robes with double sliders, for good measure.
The modern extension is made up of a stylish open-plan dining and kitchen area with polished concrete flooring, a gas bayonet for heating, feature down lights, split-system air-conditioning, a ceiling fan and built-in corner seating for both meals and conversation. The kitchen itself oozes class in the form of sparkling stone bench tops, an island breakfast bar for quick bites, a Franke sink, subway-tile splashbacks, a Belling five-burner gas-cooktop and multi-oven combination, a stainless-steel Bosch range hood and a stainless-steel AEG Favorit dishwasher.
A sleek laundry off the dining space plays host to tiled splashbacks, some storage and entry into a fully-tiled and revamped bathroom with plenty of natural light, a stone vanity, toilet, bathtub and a rain showerhead and shower-hose. Double living-area doors seamlessly extend entertaining out to a private east-facing rear outdoor setting, consisting of a delightful patio verandah for entertaining, benched seating and elevated backyard lawns. There is also a gas bayonet for barbecues, external power points and a hot-cold-water shower – ideal for washing the sand off your feet after a long, hot day at the beach.
Your two closest schools will be Beaconsfield Primary School and Fremantle College once you move in here, whilst the “Freo Doctor” will keep everybody cool as the weather begins to well and truly warm up. Furthermoe, only minutes separate your doorstep from beautiful South Beach, the ever-evolving South Fremantle cafe strip, old Fremantle town’s dining, shopping and entertainment precinct, public transport, shopping and everything in between. Timeless living awaits you from within these walls, as does a spectacular location beyond them!
