149A Forrest Street, Fremantle WA 6160

Set behind wide verges on a corner block is a contemporary two-storey home with a warm atmosphere and a Freo feel – plus an absolutely magnificent old gumtree creating a shady environment and leafy seclusion. With two living areas, an office and five bedrooms, there is plenty of space and flexibility here, with the northern aspect welcoming the light. The park and playground is at the end of the street, 9 Seeds café is around the corner and central Fremantle is minutes away.

A limestone wall surrounds the front garden, with raised stone garden beds, lemon tree, and that fabulous gum tree in pride of place. A curving brick path leads to double doors in timber and glass, opening to a double-height lobby, fresh white interiors and an expanse of hardwood floors. A north-facing living room has its own double doors to step out to the veranda, and an office with built-in cabinetry is also handily located near the front door, with a large powder room nearby.

Spanning the rear of the home is the air-conditioned open-plan living, dining and kitchen, with 5-burner gas cooktop, wall oven, dishwasher and walk-in pantry. There’s generous storage space under the stairs, and the family laundry leads to a side drying court.
Flowing out from the open-plan, textures of stone and timber continue in the private alfresco, with high-pitched ceiling, timber decking, and built-in seating by the limestone wall.

Upstairs is the bedroom zone, with five carpeted bedrooms, offering the choice to configure one for an additional study or activity room. Three have built-in robes, and the master bedroom has walk-in robes, en-suite bathroom, and a lovely northern aspect looking over the garden below. Another bright blue-and-white bathroom with bath is on this level, with separate toilet.

The corner block offers plenty of verge parking, plus entry from Robinson Street to the double garage, which features a workshop area and mezzanine storage/loft (20m3). Practicality, flexibility, space, location (and that fantastic tree) all make this a fine choice to make your move this spring.
