14 Fifth Avenue, Beaconsfield WA 6162

This gorgeous 1910 weatherboard cottage has been fully renovated to create a charming and functional family home with the perfect fusion of old and new.

A picture perfect blue weatherboard facade invites you into this warm and welcoming home. Enter through a beautiful original door into the restored jarrah lined hallway with high ceilings and character features. Two large bedrooms sit on either side of the hallway. Both feature high ceilings, jarrah floorboards, sash windows, new white plantation shutters and one with an original fireplace.

Past the bedrooms, the home opens up to an expansive open plan kitchen living and dining area. The back half of the house has been completely rebuilt with raised ceilings and polished concrete floors, to create an easy living family home, with seamless indoor-outdoor flow.

The first thing you will notice in this fabulous living area are the gorgeous coloured feature windows. Twelve pane colonial windows were removed from the original home and reinstalled in the renovation. They fill the room with a beautiful rainbow of light when the northern light beams through. Coloured glass panels in the original front door also send beams of green and red light dancing down the hallway at sunset.

The kitchen is open and functional. From the Essastone benchtop you can keep an eye on kids playing in the living area, help with homework on the kitchen bench, and have visibility out to the grassed backyard.

This is also a fabulous entertaining space where you can easily prepare meals whilst still being engaged with your guests inside or outside. Floor to ceiling glass bifold doors open up to a spacious undercover entertaining area, a wooden deck, and the grassed backyard.

Beyond the living area is the large and light master bedroom with ensuite. Floor to ceiling built-in robes line one wall, and large windows with views out to the garden are fitted with white plantation shutters. Located at the back of the home, with good separation from other bedrooms, this master suite is a private and peaceful sanctuary.

This home has been designed for easy entertaining, both indoors and outdoors. Multiple zones allow for plenty of space for parents and kids to simultaneously enjoy the company of friends and family.

Outside, the translucent patio roofing lets in plenty of light and the surrounding greenery creates a lush and relaxing space to unwind. A large grassed areas stretches to the back of the block, great for a bit of backyard cricket.

At the back of the property is a separate fourth bedroom/ studio with powder room. This multipurpose space is perfect for a kids rumpus room, study, or additional bedroom. The current homeowners love this room for kids to play with a bit of space and separation from the rest of the home.

This home comes complete with ducted air-conditioning and heating throughout, as well as an alarm system. There is undercover parking for one and additional secure off street parking. Secure gates at both the side and the front of the property allow you to relax knowing kids are contained in the back yard.

Conveniently located walking distance from so many essential amenities, there is little reason to get into the car on weekends. A coffee shop on the corner, plenty of playgrounds, and easy dinner options are all nearby. On Sundays, you'll enjoy the ritual of strolling down to the much loved Fremantle Farmers Markets for coffee, kids entertainment, fresh produce and delicious food trucks.

Local primary and secondary schools are within walking distance making school drop offs and pick ups so much smoother. Notre Dame and Murdoch University, as well as Fiona Stanley Hospital are all easily accessed by bus, and the vibrancy and action of Fremantle, East Fremantle and South Fremantle are within easy reach.

This is a spectacular family home in an idyllic location. It is very rare to find a beautiful single level character home with all the hard work of the renovation done for you. Just move in and enjoy the great family-friendly community in this highly sought after pocket of Beaconsfield.
