16 Howard Street, Fremantle WA 6160

Located just steps from Fishing Boat Harbour, this historic and immaculately presented home was built in the 1930s by a member of the iconic Ciccerello dynasty - remaining in the family for over 80 years. This extremely rare (803 sqm) allotment is unique for this part of Fremantle with planning approvals in place to subdivide. Built to grand proportions with high ceilings and decorative timber finishes, this brick-and-tile beauty has endured decades of joyous family life.

Overlooking one of Fremantle’s most celebrated streets, the generous front porch is framed in lush gardens and views to a thriving native vergescape, offering a protected sanctuary to observe all the charms and activities of Port City living.

The original kitchen is the central heart of the home where the large master suite & formal lounge, along with the dining and spacious family rooms all interconnect via an inviting entrance foyer. Separating one of the secondary bedrooms is the original bathroom which has remained in pristine condition since the day it was built. Two more bedrooms are located at the rear of the home where consideration for large-scale entertaining has been optimised.

A grand rear garden area, huge weather-protected alfresco enclosure with a fireplace and a undercover space creates separation for entertaining and relaxing around the seasons. Conveniently, the laundry and a separate toilet extend from the alfresco, providing additional wet areas for storage & accessibility without entering the main house. Options to convert a huge workshop area into an artist’s studio, with the addition of extra storage space, plus an adjoining lock-up garage are all located at the rear of the home.

With a smorgasbord of cafes, bars, restaurants, grocers, fitness studios, boutiques and much more less than 5-minutes away, along with stunning beaches, access to the local CAT bus and just a short walk to the world-class Notre Dame University and campus life, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make Fremantle home, or create excellent rental return, in one of the city’s most admirable locations.

With a DA already in place to January 2027 for a rear survey strata lot of 300sqm, the opportunities are endless.
