66 Hubble Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

Charm, prime position and potential

Charming, perfectly positioned and full of potential, this traditional worker’s cottage presents a rare opportunity to break into East Fremantle’s highly sought-after Plympton Ward.

Set on a peaceful, leafy street and surrounded by other beautiful heritage homes, this iron and weatherboard character cottage is ideally located to enjoy the best of both worlds – refined urban living and the waterfront.

Around the corner is fashionable George Street where you can take your pick of excellent cafes, boutiques, bars and restaurants.

At the end of your street is the beautiful Swan River while Port and Leighton beaches are just a five minute drive away.

The delightful cottage - with its on-trend grey and white façade, pretty leadlight front door, white picket fence and dreamy streetscape - offers flexibility depending on the lifestyle you want and the stage of life you are in.

Settle in and enjoy this home as it is or make future plans to capitalise on its outstanding potential.

Inside you’ll find two good-sized bedrooms at the front and potential to open up the back, subject to council approval.

Both bedrooms have authentic period features including lovely pine floorboards, sash windows, high ceilings and dado railings combined with modern touches such as downlights and custom built-in robes.

The traditional fireplace in the second bedroom has been converted to gas for convenience and warmth and both rooms are painted in crisp white for a more contemporary feel.

Located at the end of the central hallway is a large bathroom with a wonderful old-world feel underpinned by a clawfoot bath with overhead shower, white subway wall tiles, a pedestal basin, brass tapware and a set of French casement windows facing the leafy back garden.

It also contains a basic Euro-style laundry and WC.

The cosy, open plan country-style kitchen and dining area is light-filled and incorporates a Bosch dishwasher, five-burner gas hob, electric oven, double sink, timber cabinetry and a reverse-cycle air-conditioner.

French doors open to a covered jarrah deck capturing leafy views of the back courtyard which seems to stretch on forever.

A winding recycled-brick pathway reveals delights including a towering mature tree, the original outdoor WC, an outdoor shower and a good-sized garden shed to store bikes, kayaks and other equipment.

The highlight is the separate weatherboard studio which offers an abundance of loft storage space, new flooring, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, freshly plastered and painted walls and original timber French doors and windows to retain character.

Whether you rent this character home out, build a beautiful extension or make your own tweaks while you plan your future, the classic weatherboard façade combined with a coveted address offers astute buyers endless possibilities.
