3/5 Fortescue Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

Built over two gloriously light-filled levels, this home presents the supreme tranquility of a private retreat surrounded by trees, yet one step away from all the action of East Freo's thriving community.

This unique dwelling in a group of only five townhouses, was designed by the revered and late Fremantle architect, Brian Klopper.

Impressive north facing windows, high vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, and natural timbers meld with Klopper's love of solar passive design and producing optimal natural light throughout.

Greeted with a vast open plan living, kitchen and dining area, the eye is immediately drawn to a full-width glass divide, framing an inviting north facing courtyard space, privately enclosed and enveloped by lush trees.

The spacious kitchen features a neutral palette of timber and white, and is equipped with a four-burner gas stove-top and oven and an abundance of bench space to prepare your favourite meals. A discreet laundry and powder room completes this floor.

The open-tread timber staircase with steel balustrades leads to the upper level with two large bedrooms and the bathroom. Soaring cathedral ceilings create a feeling of vast openness in the gorgeous main bedroom, with a bright northern aspect and views to the courtyard below from the timber decked balcony, a gorgeous spot to enjoy a morning coffee.

Walk to the bus stop to get into central Fremantle or the City, stroll to cafes, restaurants and shopping and enjoy leisurely walks to the river. This wonderful home presents the best in lock-and-leave, low-maintenance living, a lifestyle of chic and designer style in a sought after and super convenient location.
