Hulbert Street is one of the most sought after streets in South Fremantle, a quiet cul de sac only 300 m from South Beach, and this gorgeous heritage cottage with solar passive designed double-storey extension hits the nail on the head if you’re looking for a truly Freo home.
The original four room cottage, built circa 1900, has been opened up so the four rooms lend themselves to being utilised as open plan living, dining and kitchen but can still be partially closed off for separate use if required. The beautiful timber-lined walls and ceilings, as well as the wide jarrah floorboards, reveal the age of this classic home. The original Metters stove still sits in the kitchen and a beautiful cast iron combustion stove can warm the front lounge on a cold winters evening.
The front bedroom has been opened up to be part of the open plan living area but could be closed back off if an extra bedroom was required. The dining room could equally be separated back off from the spacious kitchen and turned back into a bedroom.
The rear, double-storey extension has been built to capture lots of sun in the winter and be shaded in the summer The beautiful floor-to-ceiling north-facing windows overlook the established gardens with fruit trees, herbs and vegetables growing in all of the built-up garden beds. Soaring ceilings, built-in bookshelves with a rolling library ladder, a home office with its own separate entrance, a spiral staircase and round walls, this is not your standard run-of-the-mill home!
There is both a downstairs and an upstairs bedroom within the cathedral ceilinged extension. Heading out to the rear of the property, you will find a studio with its own bathroom and a separate studio with a kitchen and workshop space. These can be accessed through the main house or down a pathway at the side of the home.
The bike path at the end of the quiet cul-de-sac brings you directly to South Beach. This location just can’t be beaten, there are so many fantastic locally owned cafes, bars and hotels in the same street!! You will find this such a friendly place to settle into with a truly welcoming community surrounding you.
