A Historic Invitation to a Dream Freo Lifestyle

All Offers Presented by 4pm Monday the 16th of November (Unless Sold Prior)

Reasons to call this home:
On the edge of Wray Avenue’s vibrant precinct, steeped in community, culture and food, this is a once-in-a-generation invitation to own a piece of Freo’s heart. Layers of history unfold, from its c.1902 Federation Bungalow origins to a treasured home loved by the same family for over 50 years – yet it’s the lifestyle on offer from this iconic location that truly sets it apart.

From the outset, angled to the street, it’s a gorgeous facade in grey and white: decorative timber posts framing the porch, with a garden of olives, citrus, natives and more, wrapping the exterior. Inside, the rich character continues through sweeping high ceilings, gentle arches, pine and jarrah timbers, detailed cornicing and ceiling roses.

Upon entry is a large living area, or fourth bedroom, with three good-sized bedrooms peeling off the hallway – including the air-conditioned master. The dining is brightly lit with the bathroom adjacent, while terracotta tiles signal the simple white kitchen. Below is a generous laundry with built-in storage, a separate second toilet and exterior access.

Outside, a drying court, gated access to Carnac Street, two storerooms and a single lock-up garage (with parking for a small car) are practical inclusions, with enough garden greenery to enjoy alfresco-style while soaking up a magical west coast sunset as the sea breeze rolls through.

Offered to market for the first time in decades, opportunities like this are increasingly rare: a century-old classic on a corner 377m2 block between Manning and Carnac Streets, with all the joys of Freo’s best right on your door.
