With Little Lefroy’s and The Roasting Warehouse just around the corner, this tastefully restored 1920's heritage cottage embodies the soulful ease and coastal charm of the South Freo lifestyle. Exterior cues of corrugated iron and tuckpointed brick offset interior aesthetics of jarrah floors and high ceilings with original picture rails & timber friezes.
Discreetly located down a short-ended street, this low-maintenance residence enjoys the enviable benefits of peace and privacy from next-to-no-traffic whilst equally immersed within a warm and inclusive neighbourly community.
Delightful opaque glass period pendant lights (with brass chain detail) & decorative air vents - repeated throughout the home’s original floorplan - add touches of nostalgia and symmetry to the various living zones that extend from the generous entranceway. At its centre is a spacious dining room extending to a practical renovation including a modern kitchen, bathroom and laundry addition which was completed four years ago.
Here, French doors create a feeling of space by framing the rear pathway, while a galley-style kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to service both the rear patio and dining room with minimal effort.
Abundant soft-closing white cabinetry, along with white subway tiles and solid jarrah countertops bolster a grand 6-burner Smeg oven & stovetop with matching range hood. The sleek jarrah benchtops continue into the laundry and modern bathroom which adopt soft coastal aesthetics of cool greys and whites, in addition to a huge walk-in, frameless glass shower and separate toilet, which doubles as a powder room.
Fitted with a TV mount, drying court and terrazzo-style pavers, the weather-protected rear patio adds another layer of living around the seasons.
Typical of its era, the inviting lounge room is located at the front of the home with an original timber framed fireplace (fitted with a gas wood fire and decorative tiling) along with an open outlook to the veranda and the picket-fence-enclosed garden. Two spacious bedrooms (one with a wall bed) extend from the dining zone (one could equally adapt to a home study), while the third bedroom (with generous built-in-robes) shares veranda and garden views from the front of the home.
All the windows are fitted with traditional wrought iron window guards which facilitate excellent 24-hour airflow and assured security throughout the home.
Other features include a single automatic garage with rear access (to the patio) and abundant mezzanine & wall storage, brick-paved off-street parking, reticulated easy-care gardens, pull-down ceiling ladder to a spacious attic, multiple split-system air-conditioning units and a gas bayonet in the dining room.
Located in one of Perth’s most aspirational seaside communities, this quality home presents low-maintenance, lock-and-leave attributes in spades, whilst offering a lifestyle consisting of daily walks to the beach, iconic coffee shops & grocers and Fremantle’s eclectic harbour-side attractions.
