Set amongst a mix of historic and modern homes shaded by tall eucalypts, this picturesque heritage listed cottage has lovely kerb appeal, a superb example of a worker's cottage in Fremantle's vernacular style of architecture. Surrounded by a white picket fence, a sweet porte cochere covers the front entrance gate and leads to a deep verandah where you can sit and watch the world go by, or maybe chat with a neighbour.
Inside, an entry hallway leads to three spacious bedrooms, each with easy access to a fresh, modern bathroom with an attractive timber vanity and a bathtub. Rich coloured jarrah timber floors underfoot continue throughout the whole home. At the end of the hall, an open plan living/ dining area leads through to the well-equipped kitchen. This space is lit by a wall of timber framed windows and glass doors that offers views over the leafy rear garden. Meal preparation will be easy in the galley-style kitchen featuring timber cabinetry, a pantry, induction cooktop, and a stainless-steel dishwasher.
The living area opens out to a spacious decked verandah enclosed on either end for privacy with a skillion roof providing shade and sun protection whilst allowing for good drainage in winter. A servery window from the kitchen allows you to pass food and beverages to your guests outside. This area offers a fantastic indoor/ outdoor flow to make the most of the upcoming summer. Entertain with ease whilst overlooking the flourishing rear garden filled with fruit trees, flowering shrubs and edible herbs.
This character home located in leafy White Gum Valley offers the benefits of both cosmopolitan and coastal living. Just two minutes' drive from the Wray Ave precinct, and five minutes to South Beach, and into Fremantle city centre with myriad cafes, restaurants, bars, and entertainment options to explore. Close to Bruce Lee oval home of the popular Freo Farmers Market, and Fremantle Primary School and White Gum Valley Primary School are both nearby. With good access to public transport and main arterial roads to make your commute easy.
