4 Jenkin Street, South Fremantle WA 6162

How High's the Water Papa?

. . . . He said it's six feet high and rising . . . . sing this as you while away the time on the front verandah!
In sweet little Jenkin Street, originally named Road By The Sea.

Elevated and private to cop those stunning sunsets! The rear north-facing, drenched in the winter sun.
Protected from the wind, a fabulous veranda enjoys angled views over the Sailing Club to Carnac Island. Of stone and iron from 1902, tastefully refurbished with all of the original features still intact. An intriguing entrance hall with leadlight glass beckons you further to the cottage heartbeat. Marching passed 2 generous bedrooms with huge lime-washed ceilings and wide boards to an open-plan Sheoak kitchen, dining, and family area.
An endearing potbelly ( I'm instructed, definitely NOT for sale) belches warmth from a feature central alcove.
So romantic is this old darling . . . the ambiance is intoxicating and we are still to open a bottle of red!
Framed by beautiful sash windows, the aspect of the alfresco garden doubles as a life-sized watercolor, the perfect setting for entertaining in or outside, all year round.
Off the dining is a luxurious powder room and bathroom finished in white ceramics also overlooking the greenery.
An outbuilding/studio incorporates the original 1902 Loo, laundry, and general store area.
Generous access is afforded from the rear lane, roll up here and park the Vespa!

Such a joy to uncover and more rare than rockinghorse spit!
Bring your easel and brushes . . . there is no picture prettier than this!
