A Terrace on the Terrace!
Perfectly positioned next to some of the best shops and cafes in the heart of South Fremantle's glorious café strip, this delightful character-filled, two-bedroom heritage cottage is waiting to become your dream home. Ripe for renovation, 276 South Terrace has all the original features - fireplaces, stained glass, ornate plaster decorations and baltic pine and jarrah floorboards. Here is a rare and exciting opportunity to restore and renovate a gem of a cottage in a prime location, with the added bonus of being able to develop the large back garden into your own green haven.
Behind the tall white picket fence is a small courtyard and a classic cottage frontage with sash windows, a character front door and bullnose verandah. There's a great balance of privacy and connection to the happy bustle of South Terrace - relax in the shade of your own private front courtyard, or nip next door to Manna to buy organic produce while you're cooking and be back before the pan is hot!
This unspoiled cottage has a traditional long hallway with an ornate plaster arch. There are two good-sized bedrooms to the front, each with a fireplace and lots of natural light that floods the rooms through the tall sash windows. The main living area features a north facing sash window, ornate cornicing and a beautiful fireplace with timber mantel. The kitchen has character beams above, a Metters stove in the original fireplace surrounded by character brickwork. There is an extra sitting/dinning area with sliding doors to the outside that has plenty of potential to be a really gorgeous space. The rear of the home is where your renovation dollars will best be spent, opening the back rooms to the greatest surprise of this property - the long, wide back garden filled with mature trees and just waiting to be turned into a private haven.
While you might want to invest a few dollars into this house, your investment will be returned tenfold given it's this superb location - cafes, bars, restaurants, shops - walk to the beach in your towel, grab a coffee on the way, stop at the bar for a drink on the way home.
What an amazing chance this is to find a gorgeous cottage to renovate - not only one in such a healthy, social, soulful and character-filled beachside area, but one with a large garden. This is a very rare and exciting opportunity!
