Perfectly positioned on a prized streetscape much admired for its heritage architectural beauty, this freestanding stone cottage exudes contemporary sophistication as original character easily co-exists with the new.
From its unique elevated street aspect with views of the nearby Indian Ocean, stylish contemporary design has turned the original home into an effortlessly sophisticated family residence with a new two storey addition that maximises natural light from its northern orientation.
The sensitive renovation has created a beautifully elegant and spacious home oozing character features, with high decorative ceilings, generous room proportions, leadlight windows, original fireplaces and rich jarrah floorboards.
From its front return veranda, wide hallways guide you to two of the three bedrooms and into the central living room. This is an elegant majestic room with its feature fireplace, and flows through to the kitchen, dining and family areas. The hub of the home is the stylish kitchen with island bench, stone tops, stainless steel appliances and plenty of room to prepare your favourite meals. The light filled conservatory style family/dining area unfolds via walls of stacking doors to a tranquil northern entertaining courtyard garden, integrating the indoor and outdoor entertaining areas.
Upstairs is a serene parents haven, with a generous bedroom offering views over the beautiful neighbouring heritage homes to the sparkling Indian Ocean. A stunning and contemporary ensuite bathroom and spacious WIR complete this retreat offering wonderful separation from the minor bedrooms.
This captivating residence is located between equally beautiful heritage homes and will capture your heart, paying homage to its heritage origins while offering every comfort of modern day living. This prime Fremantle location is within easy walking distance of the vibrant cafe culture, restaurants, wine bars, parklands and Monument Hill.
