A Home Shaped by Fremantle's History

UNDER OFFER by Nick French of C&CO Real Estate

Held by the same family for over 60 years, this character filled residence is part of a cherished heritage streetscape beside the Fremantle Arts Centre.

Originally constructed in 1897 and reimagined in the post-war years, it offers a rare opportunity to secure a home of substance, character and story within Fremantle's creative heart.

The original part of the home showcases polished timber floorboards, high ceilings and a wide central hall - a classic and elegant layout that immediately speaks to its era. Three generously proportioned bedrooms provide excellent accommodation, while the home opens through to a good-sized lounge and family dining room at the rear, creating a comfortable space for everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen, remodelled in the early 2000s, is well appointed and highly functional, featuring custom timber door fronts, a pull-out pantry cupboard, extensive overhead storage, an electric wall oven, Smeg gas cooktop and Miele dishwasher. From the kitchen sink, the outlook is unmistakably Fremantle, with views to the port cranes and passing ship movements - a daily reminder of this home's unique coastal setting.

To the rear, a good sized garden offers exciting potential for a thoughtful makeover, ready to be transformed into a private oasis to complement the adjacent alfresco sitting area - perfect for relaxed outdoor living.

Storage is abundant and rarely found in homes of this era, with a large external laundry, direct external access to the toilet, a corner brick storage room, and a sizeable basement accessed from the side of the house.

Positioned within the tightly held Arts Centre precinct, the lifestyle on offer is exceptional. Enjoy world-class exhibitions, performances and events on your doorstep, with George Street precinct, central Fremantle and the Swan River all within easy walking distance.

A home of history, heart and potential - this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to become part of one of Fremantle's most treasured neighbourhoods.
