Retro vibes in lofty riverside sanctuary

Favourable elevation among the treetops, gives this double storey two-bedroom, one-bathroom townhouse, bright and lofty retro appeal.

Located in what is undoubtedly, one of the most charming riverside precincts north of the river, this low maintenance hideaway is part of Vanesta Villas, a collection of 27 well-presented brick and tile units, just meters from the foreshore as well as some of Perth’s hippest dining, take-away and entertainment options around town.

Timber floors, a crisp, clean white interior palette, extra-large windows and the central feature, an original retro-style floating timber staircase (and funky white pendant lights), define the classic 70s influences that are respectfully honoured throughout the townhouse.
Open-plan living, kitchen and dining on the lower floor extend to a fully enclosed, white-washed sunroom with bright and elevated views, while upstairs, two spacious bedrooms, fitted with mirror-inlaid built-in-robes and plush carpet, are joined by a large, updated bathroom, which also doubles as a laundry.

With so many appealing leisure and entertainment options nearby, this lock-and-leave urban sanctuary captures the very best of both worlds – a tranquil, world-class lifestyle by the river, and yet walking distance to the beach and a thriving cafe/dining scene, along with direct access via Stirling Highway to the heart of Fremantle or Cottesloe Beach and beyond to the north.

North Fremantle Primary School is conveniently located next door, while Notre Dame University, Fremantle Hospital, Perth’s best yacht and sailing clubs, the Rottnest Ferry and spectacular walking trails, are mere minutes away.
