This extraordinary home came straight from the drawing board of award-winning Dalecki Design. It was awarded the 2018 BDAWA People's Choice Award, then went on to win the 2019 NABD Award for best multi-residential design. Two years on, the current owners have lovingly nurtured this property into what has to be one of Fremantle's most exciting contemporary homes.
This impressive two-storey house has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, plus study or guest room, 2 living areas, a double garage with extra storage and a powder room toilet. The main bedroom is massive with a deeply recessed louvre window with an external planter box and steel-surround sun hood. Separate doorways lead to the oversized walk-in robe and dual sink ensuite bathroom. The upstairs has two further bedrooms with built-in robes, walk-in linen cupboard, second bathroom and a separate living room.
The ground level is dramatic from the moment you enter. You are greeted by a wide, open foyer with a high concrete ceiling, flanked by a concrete staircase on one side and a curved wall on the other. The high ceilings flow right through to the open-plan kitchen/dining/living room. While this is one large area, the unique features throughout "zone" each space with a remarkable degree of flare and creativity that is rarely seen.
Polished and burnished concrete floors, exposed concrete ceilings with black downlights and further feature lighting set the scene. The living area has double-stack sliding doors out to the alfresco, a floor-to-ceiling brick feature-wall and a recessed alcove for the entertainment centre.
The large undercover outdoor-entertaining area connects with and extends the interior. There is an exceptional interaction between the indoor and outdoor spaces of this home which utilises natural light and embraces the garden. Large steel beams provide a dramatic framework over the lawn which connects to an additional firepit-style sitting area.
The kitchen is striking with matte black cabinetry, white stone bench tops and an island bench with track lighting. This is a beautiful kitchen designed for enjoyment and ease with a long window splashback. It is also a very practical space with a deep central island, breakfast bar, Bosch appliances, and cupboard storage everywhere. Opposite the kitchen is a deep window seat that creates a unique space to relax with a book, a glass of wine, and enjoy the garden while engaging with the room. The laundry, which also has plenty of storage, is adjacent to the kitchen. There is also a powder-room toilet, rear access, and an entrance from the garage.
This is design excellence where no expense has been spared in bringing every detail of this very cool designer home to life - and to top it all off - the location is superb! This is the heart of the Fremantle lifestyle, being walking distance to the city centre, several parks including Booyeembara, the George Street café precinct and the Swan River.

- Daikin ducted air conditioning throughout
- 7.6-star energy rating

- Double glazed windows throughout
