56A Pier Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

Your Half-Built Dream Home

What a fantastic opportunity for so many buyers right here in East Fremantle! It is so hard to get land in East Fremantle, and when you do, it often comes with demolition and a ton of earthworks. Or its an awkward shaped and quite small rear block. But this is one of the best opportunities in the area for all those who dream of building their own dream home, its already half built!

This mansion was to be the culmination of many years of hard work for the owners. They bought the block years ago, and managed to subdivide. They then planned two amazing mega mansions and fought long and hard to get all the approvals and height they required to get the amazing views over the treetops from both homes. The corner home was sold several years ago as a finished, brand new home, and they started building 56A Pier street. But as time has moved on and circumstances change over the years, they have decided this is no longer their dream but it could well be someone else's!

So this home is now available for you. It is also eligible to foreign buyers and investors as it is a new home on a Subdivided block so don't delay checking it out. The good news is that the Council is keen to see this home finished so are happy to help the process and there is an opportunity to use the current builder. But the best part is that all the earthworks are done and the first two floors have been built. However, the third floor is yet to go up and this gives you the opportunity to make subtle changes to the floorplan. I've included two potential versions of the second floor as an example.

And of course, all the finishes will be up to you to, new kitchens, new bathrooms, flooring, paint - its all in your hands!


So what has been done and why is it so good?

Firstly, the basement level is an extreme version of a basement. This is something many people don't attempt as its just too hard, especially on Pier Street with all the caprock, but this basement level will blow your mind. Firstly there is a four car garage, with an additional 3m space so plenty of room here for the motorbike as well. Then around the corner is an open area where you could store a few more toys, or the bikes, or make it into a mudroom. From here you can enter the house either by the stairs or the lift (the lift has already had a deposit paid on it). Also off this area are three rooms. One has been earmarked as a cellar and its a huge room for a cellar. The perfect place to keep your wines temperature controlled. Across is another large room, let's call it the store room / workshop as it could be both at the same time and finally the large room which was a proposed theatre room. It would make a fabulous theatre room but it would also be a great gym or yoga room, a photographic studio / dark room, a games room and bar, a pottery or craft room, a teen retreat, whatever! You could do yoga classes here, or a hair dressing studio or beauty clinic. So many options! This is already built for you to take advantage of.

Then up to the first level. There's no ceiling yet but the walls are up. Here there are three large bedrooms, a massive laundry (I would convert half of it into a walk in linen and store room) bathroom, powder room and a beautiful large entry. There is also a large sitting room on this level which you could use as the kids sitting area, an office and den or again, whatever you like. It does open out to the front deck which includes all the retaining work done and the infinity pool and spa.

But the best feature on the ground floor is the view. Here you are looking straight out over the tree tops, high above the rooftops, hidden from the street. It is the perfect place to lounge around your pool and enjoy.

The pool area will look amazing and the infinity pool will mean that the gentle sound of flowing water will be in the background and the sounds of splashing in summer. Or you can just take advantage of that spa when you get home from work! And there is space in the back yard for entertaining and for a bit of lawn for kids and dogs.

The first floor hasn't been started yet but it includes the open plan living, dining and kitchen. This also overlooks all the trees and right across the valley to the escarpment. Here you can put your own touches not just on the finishes but on the layout. You'll have sun and light coming in from the north and the south windows. One of the improvements the owners intended on the original plans was to vault the internal ceilings over the living area to give it that wow factor along with the wow view. Along the front of this floor is a huge veranda where you can really sit and enjoy the view at night. It may not be water, but the trees are beautiful and the twinkle of lights coming in at night will make it look like a fairyland.

This really is a special opportunity to build one of East Fremantle's most inspiring homes and your dream home. If you have been looking for something that will give you the options as described, room for all your vehicles, room to indulge your hobbies, room to entertain, room to grow kids from babies to adults and an elevator to make sure you can enjoy it to the end, then this is the time to take over this epic build. The hard work has been done. Just finish the process, build your dream, move in and enjoy the fabulous lifestyle this home has to offer.
