DESIRABLE RIVERSIDE ENCLAVE
Live metres from the river, minutes to the beach and an easy stroll to all the best restaurants, cafes and entertainment North Fremantle has to offer with this enviably located, quiet home with stunning river views.
While homes in the exclusive Northbank precinct have long been coveted, this three bedroom house can lay claim to a location that makes it uniquely special - and desirable.
Tucked away on charming riverside Bruce Street, it has a sweeping river outlook and easy access to picture-perfect Sorrell Park, but its position also means the home is buffeted from any traffic noise from Stirling Bridge, making it delightfully quiet. As a bonus, the beautiful terrace building opposite also protects the home from any strong winds coming over the ocean.
The result is a charming, idyllic riverside retreat in a truly five star location. Start your mornings with breakfast in the sunny courtyard garden to a backdrop of sparkling river views, walk along the river, or pick up a coffee from your choice of iconic locals, like Ooh Coffee or Brucetown.
For lunch, dinner or evening drinks, you will feel spoilt for choice with local favourites on Queen Victoria Street including Habitue, Mrs Brown Bar, Flipside, Propeller and Mojo's, or just walk over the bridge into East Fremantle or Fremantle.
Other nearby neighbourhood spots include Leighton Beach, Gilbert Fraser Reserve, Apace, North Fremantle Social Farm, Bib and Tucker, The Orange Box and The Black Truffle, to name a few. This is truly a home located for lifestyle and ease.
Young families will love the proximity to the lush lawns of Sorrell Park, waterfront walking and cycle paths, local playgrounds, North Fremantle Primary School and local childcare. Couples, investors, empty nesters and downsizers will appreciate the no-maintenance aspects of the property and the easy lifestyle the location presents.
Owned by its original owner, who built the home 25 years ago, the house presents a perfect opportunity for someone to make it their own. With good bones and decently sized, light-filled rooms, there is great scope here for renovators and those with an eye for interiors.
Complemented by lush bougainvillea, the elevation has classic charm, with a timber front door flanked by lovely leadlight windows opening onto a formal entry.
To the right is the heart of the home; a lovely large open-plan living, dining and kitchen with terracotta floors and soaring ceilings. Light-filled and capturing the river vista and northern light, this is a welcoming room you will love to relax in. Entertain in the alfresco area and enjoy the beautiful river views and the council-maintained rose gardens alongside the home. The kitchen is good-sized with substantial benchtop space.
Built across three split levels, the home has three large bedrooms. The main is on the uppermost floor and is particularly spacious, with raking ceilings, abundant light and a large four door built-in robe.
The two minor bedrooms also have nice natural light and built-in robes. There is a sunny private balcony at the back of the home, ideally situated as a private spot to read or do yoga in the mornings.
A large, neutrally tiled bathroom has a glass-fronted shower, toilet and single vanity with plenty of benchtop and storage space. There is a combined laundry and bathroom with a glass-fronted shower and separate toilet.
The house has internal access to a double garage with storage space. For visitors, there is plenty of street parking on Bruce Street. The home has split system air-conditioners.
This is a wonderful versatile home for someone looking to enjoy a fantastic lifestyle in an idyllic, five star location. Make it yours.
