18/19 Douro Road, South Fremantle WA 6162

Nineteen Douro Road has used the backdrop of South Fremantle to push the design envelope and has become a landmark of the South Fremantle landscape.

Step outside your urban, architect designed apartment and you're just minutes from the beach and the vibrant South Terrace. Abuzz with a mix of eclectic lifestyles, restaurants, bakeries, cafes and boutiques.

The architects of Nineteen Douro Road have captured Fremantle's industrial, alternative flavour but in a contemporary manner that draws inspiration from the raw warehouse-style aesthetic the area is synonymous with. The building compliments the streetscape and reinforces the alternative community nature of the neighbourhood.

On the ground level, the development comprises five commercial suites and on the first and second floors are 20 modern studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments.

Apartment 18 is to the rear of the development with easy access to the garage.
All windows are double glazed and there a block-out-blinds to the bedroom.

A clear separation between the residential apartments and commercial suites offers residents greater security while the commercial spaces have been deliberately positioned along the street boundaries to maximize their exposure and shield the secure parking facility from view.

One of its standout features is the innovative residents' lobby. Used to access the residential levels, this spacious double volume internal "street" incorporates highlight glazing and operable windows to embrace natural light and cross ventilation saving residents money on unnecessary lighting, heating in winter and cooling in summer.

The building's external material palette is rustic and urban. It consist of a mixture of raw materials including recycled red-bricks, exposed steel beams, Corten, corrugated iron and green walls giving the building its industrial and distinctly "Fremantle" warehouse vibe.

Rustic and made from durable materials like stone, natural finished concrete and steel, here you can drag the beach sand in without ruining the finishes. Entertain in spacious open plan living areas or hang out on your large balcony where you can connect with South Freo's outdoorsy lifestyle and breathe in the fresh coastal air.

Not only is the 19 Douro Road lifestyle modern, it's sustainable - the apartments achieve up to 8.8 stars under the NatHERS Energy Rating System and the development is filled with environmentally friendly features like living green walls, high performance glazed glass, smart meters and solar panels.
