43 Mathieson Avenue, North Fremantle WA 6159

When the owners of this immaculately appointed riverside residence consulted the team at Riverstone Homes to design their dream house, they were seeking a coastal sanctuary that encapsulated breezy holiday vibes, negating the need to visit similar, luxury properties abroad.

The stunning design is underscored by an unmistakable spa-retreat feel, coupled with Zenful aesthetics, flawlessly achieved through reams of warm natural light, contemporary finishes, calming water views and thoughtfully curated landscaping.

Built over three levels, the ground floor entrance makes a bold statement with a wide, light-infused hallway, high ceilings, large, square-cut porcelain tiles and ceiling to floor windows which frame an internal courtyard styled with a salt-water plunge pool, stunning three-tiered water feature and Italian, custom-cut stonework.

The open plan living, kitchen and dining at the rear of the home, also enjoy access to the enclosed pool area and alfresco, along with a second private and protected terrace with Italian custom-cut stone paving and a magnificent, “wave” seat installation, designed by local landscape designer Robyn Tandon, which fits up to 10 people perfectly upon a polished cedar bench.

An extra-large, imported stone island bench, along with Miele appliances, ample soft closing cabinetry, and a spacious laundry (with external access to a drying rack) complete the rear zone, while a generous study/guest bedroom at the front of the home also enjoys tranquil poolside views and access to a dual-purpose powder-room and bathroom.

French oak and a glass framed stairway, sets the scene for the two upper levels also laid in stunning French oak throughout. A second lounge room, equipped with a handy kitchenette and balcony access, frames breathtaking river views (not to mention prime seating for the Freo fireworks!), along with two large bedrooms, each fitted with built-in-robes, plush warm grey carpet and connected by a spa-inspired bathroom with deep tub, huge vanity, heated ceiling lights and frameless shower.

Possibly enjoying the very best river views in the house, the top floor master suite is a sublime, private sanctuary.

With balcony vistas to nearby yacht clubs, Rocky Bay and glimpses of Fremantle port, this spacious floor includes a small kitchenette, walk-in-robe and a generous double vanity ensuite with a free-standing egg-shaped tub, heated floors, bespoke textured wall tiles and a discreetly concealed frameless shower, along with an independent instantaneous gas hot water system.

Other features include a double remote garage with separate built-in workshop area, exposed aggregate concrete driveway and side paths, ducted (zoned) airconditioning throughout, a combination of block out Roman blinds, sheer drapes and plantation shutters, wind-out windows and security locks on doors, an appealing north/south aspect and power installed at the rear terrace to accommodate garden lighting and a water feature.

Ideally located within walking distance to the river, beach, train station, multiple cafes, Mosman Fresh IGA (Mosman Park shopping village), Fremantle and picturesque foot and cycle paths – not to mention a super-friendly neighbourhood community and excellent schools nearby.
