3/5 Mouat Street, Fremantle WA 6160

Secluded down a delightful laneway, a beautifully conceived minimalist home occupies the soaring spaces of Fremantle's most idiosyncratic historic building. Beyond the Romanesque flourishes of the exterior is a remarkable and completely serene inner-city home with refined design, highest quality finishes and vast spaces over three levels. Northern light floods in, the extraordinarily high ceilings create a wonderful sense of openness, and a lower level zone with its own living, study and bathroom offer desirable flexibility in this unbeatable and very quiet location.

Double glass doors with huge original timber shutters open from the laneway courtyard space. The open-plan living is a lesson in luxurious simplicity: northern light, jarrah floors, tall white walls, seamless white kitchen with touch-opening cabinetry and superb black granite tops, plus a scullery with more storage and a separate toilet adjacent.

Up the spiral staircase is the vast master suite, where the lofty white cathedral ceiling is crossed with huge jarrah roof trusses and there is another enormous window to the north. There is plenty of space in this room for a study area, and the extensive walk-through wardrobes and master-suite (complete with clawfoot bath) are tucked away behind a white wall.

The lowest level of the home has its own serene atmosphere, with the minimalism of polished concrete floors and the historic touch of the building's original brick walls revealed in the sitting room. More northern windows bring in the light to the study, and to the peaceful bedroom. This tranquil space has a raised timber platform for the bed, pale timber built-in storage and a floating white desk running the length of the room. The beautiful bathroom continues the stunningly simple design themes.

Once the German Consulate in the early 1900s, 5 Mouat Street has had a colourful history in the century or so since. This home is one of three that now occupy this Fremantle landmark. It is a very rare opportunity to live in a perfectly graceful space in quiet seclusion in the heart of the West End. Walk to everything.
