Nestled within a tranquil pocket of Fremantle on the eastern side of the historic “Monument Hill” and War Memorial parklands, this stunning custom-built 3 bedroom 3 bathroom two-storey street-front residence utilises natural elements and a series of quality fittings and fixtures throughout to deliver you a home that is functional, flexible and – above all – comfortable. It is also brilliant in its versatility in that both floors can be separated from one another to create an Airbnb-style short-stay-accommodation setup, depending on your personal needs.
A remote-controlled front gate adds security and privacy to the property and encloses a terrific alfresco-entertaining area that overlooks newly-laid lawns, easy-care gardens and a paved “barbecue” courtyard. Hidden away in the corner is a bubbling outdoor “hydro” spa – the perfect place to sit and relax your body on those balmy summer evenings.
Internally, a huge central open-plan family, dining and kitchen area headlines the ground floor with its concrete flooring and bench tops, sliding-stacker doors for a seamless integration with the alfresco and yard, split-system air-conditioning, a ceiling fan, stylish light fittings, an open wood fireplace, a breakfast bar for casual meals, double sinks, glass splashbacks, a range hood, Electrolux five-burner 900mm-wide gas-cooktop and electric-oven appliances, a Germanica dishwasher, deep pull-out drawers, an over-sized fridge/freezer recess and sliding servery windows to a fantastic scullery that sits just behind – large walk-in pantry, mezzanine storage and all. There is also a built-in timber study nook next to the kitchen, whilst a solar-passive design and north-south orientation is complemented by a pleasant view out to the newly-landscaped rear rock garden – complete with feature lighting.
Off the scullery, you will find a well-equipped laundry with ample storage options, tiled splashbacks and access out to an intimate drying courtyard, Beyond the recycled brick feature walls of the main living space lie a powder room (one of four toilets under the one roof), a spacious and carpeted under-stair storeroom and a sublime king-sized master-bedroom suite that is also carpeted for comfort and plays host to a large walk-in wardrobe, split-system air-conditioning, funky light fittings, a lovely green outlook to wake up to and a delightful ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, a separate toilet with a bidet and separate “his and hers” twin vanities.
Upstairs, what is essentially a totally separate wing comprises of a carpeted stairwell, feature concrete floors elsewhere, a massive retreat/lounge room with treetop views and two full-height sliding double linen cupboards (one on each side of the room) and two huge spare bedrooms – both playing host to full-height built-in robes, split-system air-conditioning units, tree-lined window vistas and private ensuites with walk-in showers, vanities and their own toilets. A cavity slider downstairs shuts the upper level off entirely and can be utilised as you see fit.
The ultimate low-maintenance “lock-up-and-leave” lifestyle awaits you here, allowing you to help form part of a wonderful community and take full advantage of living only walking distance away from the centre of Fremantle – where the local cinema, outstanding restaurants, Fremantle Markets and even medical facilities at the Fremantle Hospital are on offer. A short drive will get you to South, Coogee and Port Beaches in next-to-no-time, whilst absolutely everything else is within arm’s reach. What a location, what seclusion, what a home!
