21 Alexandra Road, East Fremantle WA 6158

The East Fremantle dream is a character home extended with a flair for design, a fondness for history, and the embrace of openness and light. This is it: grand original rooms, lofty ceilings, fine jarrah floors, splashes of leadlight colour, and the cool contemporary feel of an expansive open-plan space stacking open to the pool and immaculate gardens. Nothing is overdone and all is harmonious, with touches of individuality creating an inviting family home full of atmosphere.

Built in the early 20th century, the home’s exterior retains a gracious presence, with an asymmetrical façade, decorative timber above the veranda, pretty leadlights at the front door, and a white picket fence framing the lawn and gardens. Off the wide arched hallway are three large, high-ceilinged bedrooms with fabulous Victorian tiling adorning the fireplaces. The bathroom is also on a grand scale, including a cast iron bath in striking forest green.

Through a leadlight door at the end of the hall, the old begins to blend with the new, and the sense of space and light is spectacular. Jarrah floors continue in the casual dining with skylights above, and the white kitchen is simply stylish, with marble mosaic splashbacks. Through an exposed original brick wall is the office, and the children will love the secret loft playroom alongside, hidden behind a corkboard door.

The stunning open-plan area that evolves below the kitchen is a wonderful transformation: masses of space and light, and a wall of glass that folds open completely to the deck, glass-walled pool, and grapevine arbour for poolside lounging. Perfect lawn and beautifully designed gardens create a serene series of spaces for relaxation and entertaining. Another bedroom or flexible room on the lower level looks to the pool, and a bathroom/laundry opens to the drying court and two handy storerooms/sheds hidden at the side.

This is a beautiful home and an exceptional opportunity, close to central Fremantle, and a stroll away from the shores of the Swan River.
