A FRENCH PROVINCIAL TREASURE

Prepare to be charmed by this truly captivating treasure designed by award-winning Fremantle architect, Michael Patroni.

From its sunny north-facing alfresco, vaulted ceilings, reams of natural light and recycled brickwork, this iconic three-bedroom, two-bathroom home is an exemplar of passive-solar design, complementing warm and inviting, French provincial vibes.

Bolstered by an enchanting gardenscape of flourishing seasonal flowers, a medley of fruit trees, ornate, reclaimed farm gates and a Zen-inducing water-feature, the private front garden - discreetly located behind a sage rendered wall - sets the scene for a dreamy, timeless interior of light timber flooring, white-washed brickwork, warm grey hues and white timber panelling.
A breezy entry foyer reveals two spacious rooms with French door access to the front veranda and glimpses to a step-down dining, kitchen and alfresco beyond.

On one side, a cosy living room, offset by a high-pitched ceiling and pot-belly fire is framed by stunning white-washed, ceiling-to-floor brickwork and front porch access, while the second room has potential as either a private bedroom or tranquil home office space (also with front porch access) and further scope for extending into the existing (adjoining) carport area, if desired.

Awash in warm natural light, the open-plan kitchen and dining extend seamlessly into a fully protected alfresco featuring mesh roll-up blinds, an original cast iron Instone Fremantle wood fire and laid in recycled brick paving. Artificial grass, along with a cacophony of flowering plants, raised beds and greenery is enjoyed from every window.

Adjoining the kitchen is a bright and airy powder room and laundry which conceal a large and secluded second bedroom with tranquil garden views and a spacious, tastefully appointed ensuite with white textured wallpaper against modern glass tiles, a tub and stylish heritage tapware.

On the top floor, a winding staircase, bolstered by a stucco wall effect, showcases a spectacular north-facing master suite with (private) balcony access, pitched ceilings (with fan) and a giant dressing room which could easily outshine Carrie Bradshaw’s iconic walk-in-robe.
An equally grand master bathroom, with spa bath, completes this restful sanctuary.
A further two top-floor nooks adjoining a large attic entrance, are fitted with air-conditioning to accommodate a playroom, small nursery or a sewing room.

Ideally located within minutes to the river foreshore and beach, Fremantle central, Royal Fremantle Golf Club, East Fremantle Yacht Club, along with local shopping amenities such as Woollies, Fresh Provisions and Foodworks, not to mention Garden City further afield.
Conveniently, bus and train routes are close by via main arterial roads.

Surrounded by parks and pathways, this home is walking distance to the charming George Street precinct with an abundance of café, dining and boutique options, local parks and fitness studios and excellent schools within the Richmond/John Curtin catchment, including Richmond Primary School, North Fremantle Primary School and John Curtin College of the Arts.

Other features include a secure, remote double-carport (with extra storage) and brick-paved off-street parking, subtle lead-light window features, three split-system airconditioning units, fully reticulated gardens and security locks on doors and windows.

It is clear upon experiencing the charm of this home that architect, Michael Patroni reached his objective in creating an inviting and practical family residence with timeless, rustic appeal, in one of Perth’s most sought-after riverside precincts.
