NORTH FREMANTLE'S BEST LOCATION (AND THE SWAN RIVER'S BEST VIEWS?) LUXURIOUS & LARGE FAMILY HOME
NORTH FREMANTLE'S BEST LOCATION
(AND THE SWAN RIVER'S BEST VIEWS?)
LUXURIOUS & LARGE FAMILY HOME
High on the hilltop at the end of the cul-de-sac sits this amazing green title three level home with pool, elevator, three car parking, guest house and some of the best river views available in the entirety of Perth City.
Situated on the glorious southern fringe of Perth's exclusive Western Suburbs just north of Fremantle Port, the suburb of North Fremantle offers Perth City's only true ocean and river lifestyle with dual frontage onto both the majestic Swan River and the vast Indian Ocean. 71 Rule makes the best of both - being river frontage yet still taking in ocean views to the rear of the property due to its serious elevation.
Absolutely everywhere within the main home soaks up some of the best river views available - that really need to be viewed to be appreciated. Overlooking one of the most exciting parts of The Swan - the deep water elbow of Rocky Bay where pleasure crafts come to moor and entertain in this unique section of The Swan which is completely protected from all weather conditions (as are all of your alfresco entertaining areas within the home which overlook it), due to its amazing orientation. Beyond the 180 degree arc of vibrant and active Swan River waters below you are the myriad yachts and launches of The Swan and Aquarama Yacht Clubs on the Preston Point peninsular opposite and the homes all around in the suburbs of North Fremantle, East Fremantle, Bicton, Mosman Park et al. Whether it is the comings and goings of pleasure craft all around, kayakers and rowers, boat launchers on the opposite bank, water police adjacent or the daily visits of The Swan River dolphins… there is always something to see!
The floor plan design within this home is exquisitely designed and zoned for both harmonious family interaction or separation, whichever is required. On the ground floor, two generous minor bedrooms both overlook the large front garden courtyard to the river. They share a family bathroom also on this level and have their own living room with bi-folds opening to, and aspect over the pool and gardens to the rear. This is a wonderful stand alone kids/teenagers or even young adults wing.
At the other end of the pool is the guest house - a fully self-contained apartment with lounge area, kitchenette, ensuite and walk in robe. This guest wing opens east onto the pool and gardens and has an aspect towards the Fremantle Port from windows to the other side. So separate from the main house, this guest quarters will give wonderful separation when your friends and family come to stay. Alternatively, It would also suit an au-pair, elderly parents, live in help or could even be rented for some income. It sits above the double lockup garage and huge store room which are accessed from the homes second street frontage behind. (Adjacent to the garage is a third parking space). There is a sauna next to the guest wing at the far end of the pool.
On the top floor is the parents wing with huge master suite with vaulted ceilings and French doors onto its own private balcony taking in the truly majestic river views beyond and below. The huge en-suite with spa captures the same outlook. Also in the adults wing are two big, separate his-and-hers walk in robes and a sitting room to the rear with built in cabinetry for your entertainment units etc as well as a desk alcove to give this space a dual purpose as a quiet work from home office. This sitting room enjoys views to Fremantle Port out across the pool and gardens below.
On the middle floor is the main living where all of the family can withdraw from their own quieter private zones to meet, greet and mingle together. A sweeping open plan space featuring travertine floors domed plaster ceilings and bi-folds onto balconies both east and west which bring the magnificent views of the river, pool and Fremantle Port towards the ocean in amongst your daily existence. The big river views continue out onto the east facing BBQ/alfresco terrace on this level which takes in the stunning arc of The Swan before you that is truly so good you will have to pinch yourself! Completely protected from the summer south westerlies of The Fremantle Doctor and both NW and SW winter storms - this glorious sundrenched river view terrace is sure to be the backdrop for many future memories of family get togethers, sunny lunches, evening soirees, cocktail parties and special occasions aplenty.
Life is good here… welcome to the North Fremantle river front!
