2 Barnett Street, Fremantle WA 6160

Natarsha Lambie proudly presents this iconic Victorian-era beauty - whose founding owner was the street's namesake, Dr Henry Calvert Barnett - is one of Fremantle's most outstanding and architecturally significant homes. Classic brick & stone construction, sweeping bullnose verandas, and elegant stately interiors define its charismatic appeal.
A magnificent landmark into one of Freo's most historical streetscapes, this respectfully restored residence, with its distinctive turret and remarkable features, sits proudly upon an elevated corner allotment where cooling sea breezes stream through its sweeping verandas and manicured gardens.

Extra-high ceilings, grand majestic windows (many with wrought-iron window guards), original skirting boards & cornices, and reimagined living spaces have been tastefully updated in a bespoke interior fit-out of breathtaking proportions.

Influences of modern farmhouse glamour are celebrated via clean white interiors, snowy white plantation shutters, and dark stained jarrah floors, evoking timeless designer appeal. A clear crystal & chrome chandelier anchors the arched entrance foyer adding old-world glamour to this grand statement room.

Chandeliers are repeated in the adjoining master and secondary bedroom - one framed by a charming bay window as part of the turret feature, and both fitted with magnificent French-style white decorative mantles, each installed with remote Heat Glo fireplaces.

The chic master suite extends to a modern double-vanity ensuite, with a grand ceiling-to-floor window overlooking the courtyard, in addition to a contemporary free-standing bath, frameless walk-in shower, and modern comforts like heated towel rails and ceiling lamp. A walk-in robe completes this blissful haven.

Overlooking the length of the southern veranda, the vast open-plan living, kitchen and dining offer a practical layout for seamless large-scale entertaining and casual family gatherings.

Neutral coastal hues are honoured in the kitchen cabinetry and island bench where quality Miele appliances (induction & gas stove tops; twin oven & dishwasher) are featured throughout. A handy door to the veranda and garage gate adds to its practical appeal. The remaining secondary bedrooms - all extending off the grand hallway are delightfully spacious, some fitted with built-in-robes - and share a modern bathroom which also doubles as a powder room.

At the rear of the home, the surprise reveal of a sunny, white-washed sitting room with sand-finished walls maximises tranquil courtyard garden aesthetics via two double-aspect French doors (one leading to a discreet drying court from the laundry).

Curated by Crispy Edges Landscaping, the gardens, framed in lilly pilly hedging, Mediterranean herbs, and an emerald stretch of pillowy turf, offer a place of peaceful serenity, while a provincial-style north-facing courtyard paved in recycled Fremantle brick features a pretty bird-bath and an arched limestone wall adorned in manicured vine.

With its prime location at the heart of Fremantle - along with Fremantle Park at the end of the street, excellent schools nearby and public transport aplenty - this unique dwelling is ready to be received by its new custodians where it will offer a truly unique lifestyle within a close-knit community.
