SOLD FIRST WEEKEND BY NICK FRENCH, C&CO REAL ESTATE!
Beautifully Renovated Mid-Century Cottage
Sitting on one of WGV's favourite friendly streets, 7 Simper Crescent is an absolute delight. This solid brick and tile, 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house has all the character features of its time; terrazzo flooring, funky, original glass wall-cabinets in the kitchen, jarrah floorboards, decorative plasterwork, and an original brick fireplace. But what makes this vintage beauty even more delightful is that it is as clean and fresh as the day it was built.
With fresh paint, new lighting, and polished floorboards throughout, the original parts of this home are sparkling. The addition of a sharp, new bathroom and laundry, with new fittings and fixtures, completes this very desirable package.
With easy parking at the front for several cars, the house is nicely separated from the street by a big green, level front lawn with a mature central tree and planted borders. There is plenty of garden here for children and pets to run around while you watch from the extended front porch.
The roof has been beautifully extended at the front to provide an al fresco dining space that's perfectly in harmony with the original architecture, and there are French doors opening out to it from the lounge. Together with the stylish Mid Century mosaic feature under the front window, this thoughtfully designed front porch makes a dynamic and appealing entrance statement.
The central hall leads you through the home with two big bedrooms on the left sharing the original bathroom, which comes complete with some very pretty, original floor tiles. The other side leads to the lounge and then on to the central kitchen.
The kitchen has a stunning, green terrazzo floor, which is bathed in light over the winter months via the big north-facing picture window above the sink. The cabinets are original, with overheads on both sides of the room. This is a big kitchen that comfortably accommodates a good-sized family dining table, and there's plenty of space for additional cabinetry.
The third bedroom is to the back of the home, and there's extra space alongside for either storage or a cosy reading nook. Adjacent is a beautifully-appointed new bathroom and laundry with a separate toilet. This is a stylish and highly functional space with a long laundry bench, frameless shower, wall-hung vanity with stone benchtop, and tasteful, strikingly-patterned floor tiles, which are perfectly in-keeping with the architecture.
There is so much to see here and enjoy - so much so, that it's easy to forget to mention the superb location! Just off Samson Street, the property is close to the Fremantle border. It's a walk or bike ride to all of Freo's best locations and it's convenient for schools, shops and transport. Simper Crescent is also a vibrant, community-minded street in the heart of the ever-popular White Gum Valley.
