52 Oakover Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

Impressively renovated from its original 1940s shell, this lovely family home offers it all – from classic nostalgic features to a secure yard for the kids to play in, as well as a shimmering below-ground swimming pool with jets that is just waiting to be splashed around in.

The opening of the corner gate reveals East Fremantle charm in abundance here, with solid wooden floorboards, high ceilings, feature skirting boards and decorative ceiling cornices commonplace throughout. Double doors off the main entrance introduce you to a central open-plan family, dining and kitchen area that benefits from a splendid north-facing aspect and plenty of natural sunlight, as well as split-system air-conditioning, feature down lighting, an island/breakfast bar for casual meals, sparkling stone bench tops, beautiful Hamptons-style cabinetry, tiled splashbacks, a Baumatic Induction hotplate, a Bosch oven, an Omega range hood, a sleek white Bosch dishwasher, lovely views out to the pool and sliding-stacker doors for a seamless indoor-outdoor integration to the poolside entertaining patio.

Offering great separation with two distinct wings – the children’s wing and the adults wing. On the east side, you’ll discover two bedrooms, a family bathroom with separate toilet and a second lounge – or theatre – room that has its own split-system for air-conditioning, double alfresco doors for direct access to the pool and can easily become your fourth bedroom. A study off the kitchen is perfect for work from home arrangements or as an extra bedroom. On the west side, separate from the minor sleeping quarters is a spacious king-sized master suite at the front of the house, complete with a ceiling fan, a striking character ceiling rose, white plantation window shutters, built-in wardrobes, benched window seat and a cleverly-revamped ensuite bathroom – walk-in shower, heat lamps, toilet and vanity.

The main driveway on Oakover Street is complemented by a secure access gate where a large single carport and a second tandem parking bay are tucked away, with the bonus of internal entry via the front door. Another driveway off the second street frontage offers double side-access gates, as well as a garden shed for some extra storage.

Stroll to food, coffee and public transport from here, as well as the Royal Fremantle Golf Club, East Fremantle’s vibrant George Street precinct. Sought after educational facilities (are on your doorstep including Richmond Primary School and John Curtin College of the Arts). Enjoy very close proximity the recently refurbished Bicton Fresh, Princi’s Butchers, Puck Coffee, Rebecca Oats Hairdressing, Woollies, a chemist, the post office and so much more. Close to the heart and soul of old Fremantle town, as well as our picturesque Swan River foreshore. A wonderful location from which to live a full life!
