Situated on one of South Fremantle's premier tree-lined streets, this classic and unique century-old cottage is full of charm and is one of the locals' most admired homes.
The front home has been lovingly restored to respect the original cottage with wide Jarrah floorboards and thick limestone walls. A large open dining entertaining area, with views of the treelined secluded back yard, has been tastefully renovated to include storage, benchtops and modern amenities, complementing the 1890s character and original fireplace. A set of original limestone stairs leads you down to a large lounge area with a fireplace and wooden windows, with an amazing outlook onto the sanctuary of the first private yard with small outbuildings ready for you to transform.
The main cottage has had the original bathroom renovated for modern convenience. There are two front bedrooms with a third bedroom or study/library. Along with wood floors throughout, the cottage features charming light fittings, and the large windows create a warm and welcoming ambience.
Meandering through the first private garden you reach the second smaller cottage and treelined paved second yard and garden. This limestone cottage has been transformed into an open-plan building with all the comforts required.
Rarely does such a South Fremantle property of this quality and character come to the market in this unique location.

Settlement of South Fremantle started in 1831 with growth taking place in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Expansion continued during the 1950s and 1960s and again in the early 1990s when new dwellings were added to the area.
