Nestled on a generous 690sqm (approx.) block in one of East Fremantle’s most sought-after locations, north-east of Canning Highway, this charming 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home – to be sold “as is” – is the perfect blank canvas for those wanting to add their own personal modern touches throughout and give this grand old lady the tender loving care she deserves, taking full advantage of a desirable setting just footsteps away from Richmond Primary School, bus stops and also close to our picturesque Swan River. It’s time to put your own stamp on the lifestyle you know you deserve.
All of the property’s original character features remain firmly intact, from the large timber-lined entry verandah to its nostalgic arches, an expansive tiled entry foyer with feature wallpaper, high decorative ceilings, feature cornices and wooden doors and skirting boards – all beyond a gated front yard and its stunning rose garden.
Internally, a spacious master-bedroom suite will impress with its generous walk-in wardrobe, a step-up study/home office with its own separate access via the verandah and a private ensuite bathroom – Roman bath/shower, vanity, toilet and all. A commodious front lounge room keeps conversation separate from meals within a light and bright open-plan kitchen and dining area – huge in size and boasting a breakfast bar and skylight.
A separate second study is also filled with natural light, whilst the second bedroom (with built-in robes, a computer desk and bedside storage/shelving) and third bedroom (graced by wooden floorboards) are also massive in their proportions. The large laundry – with access to the rear of the property – plays host to a generous main family bathroom with a shower, toilet, vanity and floor-to-ceiling tiling.
The backyard can be whatever you want it to be and is the perfect platform for those wanting to get those creative juices flowing this summer. Elsewhere, the residence has an outhouse/toilet and storage shed in the yard, with double driveway gates securing a huge side carport that can host two vehicles in tandem, with space for a third car in behind. Complementing gated access to the backyard is another storeroom – or cellar – under the house.
The foundations are solid and the potential is there for everybody to see – in a terrific location only walking distance from the East Fremantle Yacht Club and very handy to cafes, bars, restaurants, the vibrant George Street precinct, Canning Highway, gorgeous foreshore parklands, community sporting facilities, shopping (including Fresh Provisions and Stammers Marketplace), other schools, the Royal Fremantle Golf Club, southern beaches and the heart of Fremantle town itself. This is your chance to make something special happen!
