On the top floor of Rivershores, arguably the most high-end riverfront apartment building in the prestigious Northbank precinct, this exquisite apartment offers spectacular views across the Swan River, Fremantle Harbour, the ocean and even a glimpse of the Perth city skyline.
Designed for relaxed, zero-maintenance coastal living, this three bedroom apartment is perfect for downsizers, retirees, professional couples or parents with an older child. Enjoy living moments from the beach, parklands, the café and entertainment hub of Queen Victoria Street, riverside walk and cycle paths and local leisure and sporting clubs.
One in a group of 58, the friendly, secure complex has top-quality facilities including a stunning lap pool, spa, gym and barbecue alfresco entertaining area, and approved pets are welcome in the compound.
Start your mornings with a gym session or run the dog through the riverfront parklands and come home to your tranquil riverside retreat. Airy and spacious with a big open-plan kitchen, living and dining, this apartment feels like a breath of fresh air with its clean, contemporary coastal palette, beautiful natural light and spectacular river and ocean views.
Passionate cooks and entertainers will love the Essastone kitchen where an impressive array of built-in appliances include a Miele 900mm oven, coffee machine, plate warmer, three gas burners, induction cooktops, temperature controlled wine fridge, steam oven, microwave speed oven, integrated Bosch dishwasher and large integrated fridge and freezer.
Push aside the commercial grade sliding doors and open the home up to the spacious balcony. A generous 34sqm and orientated to be protected from the harshest winds, the balcony offers a fantastically useable space year-round, with a breathtaking river vista and even a glimpse of the city.
Imagine summers spent inviting friends round for a sunset wine on the balcony while watching the dolphins swim past. After that it's an easy stroll down the road to Mrs Brown Bar or a quick Uber to beachside dining at Bib & Tucker - or walk over the bridge to the Fremantle CBD or to George Street. You are spoilt for dining choice here.
The spacious main suite is a sanctuary. Lie in bed and enjoy the water views or the night lights across the river. There is a large robe, balcony access and beautiful ensuite. Completed in 2011, the apartment still presents as if it could have been finished yesterday, with the timeless interior including fully tiled bathrooms, stone benchtops and honey-coloured built-in cabinetry. The ensuite has a twin vanity, large shower and a deep bath for a restorative soak at the end of a long day.
The floor plan offers good separation between the main suite and the other bedroom wing. Here two light-filled, generously sized bedrooms have stunning views that stretch across the Northbank Precinct, Fremantle Harbour and the ocean beyond. Both rooms have good-sized built-in robes.
There is a stylish modern bathroom and a laundry with Miele washer and dryer and good storage. The layout encompasses a tidy study or home office space off the foyer, with a built-in desk and shelves. While the apartment has reverse-cycle air-conditioning, this is rarely needed - the current owners having found the home is easily cross-ventilated with cooling sea breezes in summer. This penthouse offers two gated, secure side-by-side garage car bays and a good-sized storeroom.
A rare opportunity to buy into this prestigious, friendly location, with a lovely community, this idyllic home won't last long.
