6 Fothergill Street, Fremantle WA 6160

Historic residence with total flexibility

Danum House is a heritage residence in one of Fremantle’s most delightful streets, rising above the historic town centre and looking beyond to the ocean. Set on the corner of Bellevue Terrace, the splendid spaces of this significant character home seem to go on forever, culminating in the second storey master suite and living room where you can see the ships come in in the distance. With four bedrooms (one with kitchenette), four bathrooms, three living areas, lovely garden spaces and much more, including an independent rear studio with en-suite/kitchenette, this is a remarkable opportunity offering endless flexibility.

The luxury of space creates a vast home where blended or extended family can be accommodated with ease; you can live in one half of the home and operate the rest as holiday rental or configure as you wish.

From this prestigious enclave surrounded by character homes, it’s just a short stroll down the hill to town, with the green expanse of Monument Hill and Stevens Reserve nearby.

Surrounded by walled cottage gardens, the red front door opens to wide jarrah floors, lofty ceilings and all the charm of the era. Two grand bedrooms overlook the front garden; one with a spectacular bow window, fireplace and a door to the veranda, and the other with a vast en-suite. A third spacious room is currently configured as a sitting and dining room with its own kitchenette, and two more large bathrooms feature antique timber vanities typical of the character feel. Moving towards the rear of the home, a gas log fire with ornate timber surround warms an expansively elegant sitting room, then French doors flow to a gracious surprise: a near new open-plan kitchen with stone tops, butler’s sinks and finest appliances.

Just when you think it couldn’t get any better, upstairs the ocean comes into view, from a large sitting room/study zone and the master suite. Both open to the balcony, where the sunsets are spectacular, looking over the old walls of the prison to the sea beyond.

Back downstairs, the outdoor living flows beautifully, with built-in gas range and fridge, alfresco, and terraced gardens leading to the rear studio with bathroom, kitchenette and independent access. Vehicle access is available from Bellevue Terrace, where a large double garage features mezzanine storage. For an extensive home such as this, the solar power is a great bonus to keep bills low.

This is an exciting opportunity, offering great flexibility: grand family home, income, or both. Take some time to explore Danum House and imagine how the next chapter in its history can come to life for you.
