41 May Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

SOLD BY LINDA DIGBY, C&CO REAL ESTATE

This gracious and historic Federation residence is positioned between the highly sought-after Plympton Ward and the leafy Woodside Ward in a tightly held pocket of East Fremantle. If you are an astute buyer seeking a substantial family home on the doorstep of the Swan River foreshore and popular George Street precinct, local parks, playgrounds, schools, shopping and transport links, then look no further!

Lovingly preserved and delightfully enhanced, the home offers immense aesthetic appeal from the moment you walk through the leadlight entrance door into the ornate arched hallway. Retaining all the charm and reverence of yesteryear, the elegance of the home is revealed as you pass beautifully proportioned rooms which boast typical features of the era: high decorative ceilings, sash windows, back-to-back fireplaces, and attractive polished Jarrah floors.

Off the hallway, there is a sophisticated library/study with extensive built-in bookshelves, and lovely French doors that open onto the private front garden beyond, together with another versatile room which is perfect for all ages, with plenty of space to spread out and play, read or study.

Opposite these creative rooms are two sizable bedrooms and a nearby pristine bathroom with deep bath and separate shower. Central to the bedrooms and living area is a separate and smartly designed laundry with plenty of storage - plus a secret wine cellar!

The rear of the home offers a delightful two-level extension which transforms and expands the indoor - outdoor living areas for the best of modern liveability. The real 'wow factor' of this home is the open plan design and connection to the outdoors via floor to ceiling windows and beautiful bi-fold timber doors. The kitchen is the focal point of the living area and features low picture windows, quality cabinetry, stone bench tops and European appliances for serious entertaining.

After dinner you can relax by the magnificent state-of-the-art fireplace - a German designed wood burner that will not only warm your heart, but have your guests wanting one too! In warmer months, fold back the bi-fold doors and enjoy the uncovered outdoor kitchen with built-in BBQ, sink and rangehood ideal for catching up with friends while the children play and explore the garden by the veggie patch.

A beautiful Jarrah staircase leads to the luxurious adult retreat. This level houses the main bedroom with generous walk-in robe, and a striking ensuite with yet another deep bathtub. Two additional bedrooms nearby offer excellent flexibility for a nursery or study.

There is also a quality powered workshop / studio positioned in the garden to enjoy creative pursuits.
