Walk to the river in moments before coming back to relax and entertain in a dream indoor-outdoor setting with this beautiful, two-storey home on one of North Fremantle's best streets.
Built in 1999 and meticulously upgraded by its current owners, this delightful four bedroom, three bathroom double brick home is ideal for a family, professional couples or retirees wanting to live walking distance to all the best North Fremantle has to offer.
Just 100m from the river, with a footpath to Harvey Beach, a small river beach only locals know about, this is a dream location on prestigious Corkhill Street. Be at the beach in minutes, walk to East Fremantle or take your pick of local hotspots from iconic Queen Victoria Street, with Mrs Brown Bar, Flipside Burgers, Mojo's and Piggy Food Co. Young families will love the proximity to North Fremantle Primary School, childcare as well as great local playgrounds, parks and cycle trails.
The exterior spaces have been completely redone, complementing the elevation's timeless brick walls, classic lines and cedar garage doors. An edible verge garden complements the re-landscaped front garden, a perfect spot for a firepit with its brick and steel front wall, white concrete flooring, huge olive tree and lush hedging.
A classic entryway opens to a hallway with polished timber floors and archway with corbels. Internally, contemporary classic details are complemented by elements that reference North Fremantle's industrial heritage, including a magnificent wrought iron and timber staircase and feature steelwork. Timber-framed doorways through the home complement the classic neutral finishes and white Plantation shutters.
A capacious, light-filled open-plan living forms the heart of this home, with soaring ceilings beset with a hand-painted feature dome. Raking exposed timber ceilings feature in the inviting living area, set with northern skylights with motorised blinds. New bi-fold doors connect to the wonderful back garden and feature a retractable flyscreen.
The airy, contemporary kitchen will thrill cooks, with abundant benchtop space, a breakfast bar, generous storage, walk-in pantry, dishwasher and large Ariston range with gas cooktop. The dining area alongside has two walls of windows connecting it to the garden.
Completely professionally re-landscaped, the back garden is a dream entertaining zone. A decked area with curved concrete bench seat comes into its own for casual gatherings, hung with festoon lighting and backdropped by citrus, bay leaves and frangipani. White concrete flooring adds to the modern feel. Deciduous trees help shade the covered outdoor dining area in summer, losing their leaves in winter to fill the interiors with northern light. A purpose-built concrete barbecue bench with Weber Q is mains gas-connected.
The floorplan offers great separation between the bedrooms. The spacious upstairs main suite is a delight, with a huge balcony. Pour a wine and relax to a view across the treed neighbourhood. There is a walk-in robe and ensuite that would suit a boutique hotel, with freestanding bath, twin vanity and huge shower. Even the ensuite has air-conditioning, with reverse-cycle air-conditioning through the home.
Another bedroom upstairs has a built-in desk and robe and bathroom with a large corner bath and powder room. A living area upstairs offers great functionality, ideal for a second living area, teenage retreat, playroom or office, with closet, kitchenette and balcony.
Meanwhile the ground floor encompasses another bedroom suite, ideal for a teenage or adult child or as a guest suite. This lovely bedroom has white Plantation shutters, a built-in robe and shoe cabinet, and a spacious semi-ensuite with modern vanity. Nearby is an internal courtyard with reconstituted decking, potted banana tree and fernery.
A huge garage with workshop space and generous storage space can comfortably fit two large cars.. The driveway has been redone as part of the landscaping. A well-appointed, light laundry has plenty of storage.
