60A Dalgety Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

Classic Federation + Contemporary Style

The streetscapes of the Woodside Ward are lined with lovely historic homes like this one, built in the early 20th century and retaining their traditional charm in quiet streets full of trees and birdsong. A classic brick and iron Federation home fits right in, with a fresh cream-painted exterior, white picket fence, and limestone-walled gardens framing a magnificent old gum tree. Step up to the veranda, which is a lovely spot to enjoy the breezes in the evening, and chat with the neighbours passing by in this welcoming community. Recent renovations offer a sleek new kitchen and bathrooms, extensive built-ins in the bedrooms, and open-plan living. Close to the park and the river, with George Street restaurants and shopping nearby, Dalgety Street is one of East Fremantle’s finest.

Jarrah floors, high ceilings, Oregon doors and ceiling roses are among the precious traditional features. Two bedrooms spanning the central hallway look to the front garden, with ceiling fans and built-in storage either side of the timber-framed fireplaces. A large dining room or second living is lit by triple windows to the north. Another large bedroom (or home office) has a giant skylight and more built-in cabinetry, and the fresh bathroom adjacent has a frameless glass shower and black tapware. Those contemporary finishes are reflected in the air-conditioned open plan, where a wall of cabinetry accommodates the home theatre set up, with projector and pull-down screen. A long waterfall island is the centrepiece of the generous kitchen, with clever lighting and masses of storage in timber laminate and glossy white. Textured white wall tiling is a stylish feature of the designer bathroom nearby, and there’s even more storage in the sleek laundry off the kitchen.

Glass sliding doors in the open-plan frame the leafy outlook to the timber deck and private courtyard garden, where a flowering gum curves up the cubby, and a paved utility area and shed are concealed behind the passionfruit vine. A side gate leads to a row of ornamental pears, and herb and veggie beds in the sunny productive garden. The garage is set up as a workshop with parking space too, and there’s additional paved parking for two cars.

All the updates for modern living have been done for you in style, so you can just move in and enjoy the historic atmosphere and the leafy environment of this prestigious East Fremantle neighbourhood.
