There's a lot more to this home than meets the eye. 165 Edmund Street offers a stunning position high on the ridge above South Fremantle, looking out to the expansive Indian ocean from a rare 941 sqm allotment.
Unassuming from the street, this unique home offers buyers a sense of history, architectural style and brilliant versatility. The original stone cottage features a long-arched hallway and three large bedrooms with high ceilings, open fireplaces and wide timber floorboards.
With a clever configuration for all family groups this home offers scope to provide two homes in one for short or long term accommodation to produce a passive income, or build a separate dwelling in the garden.
The transition from the stone cottage to the more recent, modern additions is dramatic and elicits a 'Grand Design' impact. This property has been enhanced architecturally to capture the impressive ocean views and provide easy liveability through interactive indoor-outdoor living spaces.
Designed to entertain family and friends, both inside and out, with an elegant galley kitchen. From the kitchen bifold windows allow food to be served out to the elevated alfresco deck. A perfect setting above the Mediterranean garden with views of everchanging sunsets over the ocean.
In the sellers' words; "From humble beginnings we've created a home that nurtures our love of nature and stimulates our artistic passion. Creating a green oasis framed by ocean views has been a joy to share during long lazy summer lunches with family and friends. From inside, we never tire of the views out to Rottnest and Carnac Islands. From watching the white tipped sails of boats on a calm day to the dramatic formation of a storm followed by stunning sunsets that wrap themselves around the house has been an unexpected joy of living at 165 Edmund Street".
The large under croft parking and generous downstairs entertaining area flow through into lush established garden with a wonderful variety of native planting and fruit trees. Already established to provide figs, olives, grapes, veggie patches for the new owners to nurture and enjoy!
With a friendly community lifestyle and an easy stroll or cycle into town for a leisurely lunch, coffee or ocean dip - its all here by the coast including the popular Fremantle Farmers Market every Sunday.
With a two lot sub-divisional approval back in (June 2010), prospective buyers have an opportunity to reapply and create a front lot of 350sqm with the existing dwelling, and a rear lot affording 486sqm with common property access off 103sqm along with a shared ROW. Zoned R25.
