20 Scott Street, South Fremantle WA 6162

Rustic Masterpiece

Drawing inspiration from Fremantle’s Victorian heritage in addition to the rustic, coastal charm of a Mediterranean chateau - this breathtaking, brick and limestone residence on a generous 594sqm block enjoys an elevated position in one of South Freo’s most coveted, seaside locations.

Designed by prolific Fremantle designer, Andy Zubovicz, this grand family home is defined by his indelible trademark aesthetics.

Decorative wrought iron - weaving through the central staircase; a medieval-style kitchen, clad in timbers, recycled (Fremantle) brick, and a huge hearth encasing a deluxe European cooker, and exposed limestone walls, seamlessly meld with rich timber floors, generous rooms and a cathedral-like presence throughout.

An entire floor dedicated to living begins with an inviting entry lounge, leading the eye to a central, solid brick-and-wrought-iron staircase, illuminated from above via a double ceiling void and stream of natural light via a generous skylight.

A spacious study (currently a billiards room), discreetly located off the sitting room, also enjoys easy access to the rest of the home via a private door to the rear living zone.

Timber floors continue to the rear of the property where open-plan living, kitchen and dining are offset by a charming, conservatory-style reading nook, taking full advantage of the northern aspect and the pool and garden views beyond.

The kitchen, also basking in sunny north-facing garden vistas, is akin to a chef’s medieval den. Wall-to-wall (iron) windows, warm timber benches and cabinetry, exposed recycled brick, and a fabulous hearth featuring a Belling 7-burner gas stove-top and oven is a thing of beauty.

Anchored by a below ground free-form swimming pool (salt water, limestone framed and solar heated), the garden presents a vast and enchanting playground inclusive of raised veggie beds, citrus trees and herbs, and the delightful addition of a free-standing studio and patio-space (with a full floor cellar beneath).

Intended as a teenager’s retreat or perfect short-stay accommodation, the cathedral-like cottage adopts a ski-chalet interior with vaulted pine ceilings and floors, and a mezzanine level for a bedroom and sitting nook.

A kitchenette, bathroom and dining area on the ground floor, create the coziest of aesthetics.

The main house upper floor is all about embracing rest, coastal views and supreme relaxation (inclusive of a sauna!).

Extending from the landing, four generously sized bedrooms include generous built-in-robes, split-system air-conditioning units and access to individual ensuites fitted with Edwardian porcelain sinks and one with a free-standing, claw-tooth bathtub.

Both the master suite and adjoining bedroom share a grand, north-facing balcony with ocean glimpses and garden views, while the front room enjoys views to the Fremantle Sailing Club and coast beyond.

Other features include an extremely rare huge, automatic below ground garage (accommodating four/five cars comfortably), plus abundant storage and a large workshop; a powder room from the laundry and fully reticulated gardens.

The prime location of this impressively appointed property simply speaks for itself.

Enjoy daily coastal sea breezes, walk to South Beach, Wild Bakery (end of the street) and a plethora of hip-n-happening cafés, bars and restaurants, or take the kids to Beaconsfield Primary School.
