A rare opportunity to secure a truly authentic Fremantle Cottage home showing the Federation Bungalow style of architecture with an asymmetrical facade designed (typical brick and iron single storey duplex half dating from 1903/04 identified by the Fremantle Society in 1979/80 as being of cultural heritage significance, thus "significantly contributing to the unique character of Fremantle). A superb place to live with cafe's, local shops, parks and all of Fremantle's wonderful vibrant port lifestyle surrounding you and all within walking distance, or a mere 5 min ride by public transport.
A 257sq m block with a 9 m frontage ensures you will have enough land to enjoy developing your garden oasis literally from scratch to compliment your home. It is in need of some TLC and imagination but is your blank canvas to express your colours and style. The front verandah, complimented by original tuck-pointed brickwork, opens to the wide wooden floored corridor through the 2 spacious Bedrooms and comfortable sized lounge (all with their own fireplace and high ceilings). Venture further to the Kitchen/Dining room where you will find what looks to be the original Sandover & Co Federal Stove, wood fired of course.
The rear verandah has the Bathroom on the one end and Laundry facilities on the other. There is an indoor Toilet and the original Outhouse. The backyard is split level and extends to the sealed rear lane.
