This pair of Duke Street terrace homes are a fine example of the traditional architecture of the precinct. In the late 1890s & early 1900s, worker's cottages of limestone, brick and timber began to line the streets of Plympton and this is a very unique opportunity to acquire both of these green titled properties, if one is not enough!
This picturesque Federation cottage is a beautiful reminder of times gone by. The historic brick and iron cottage sits invitingly behind its picket fence with an elevated front porch where you can sit and watch the happenings around you.
Behind the front door, the interiors overflow with original character and charm from the long hallway with its wide jarrah floorboards to the high ornate ceilings and picture rails. At the front of the home, overlooking the porch, is the first of the two large bedrooms with a charming decorative cast iron fireplace. The second bedroom overlooks a small courtyard to the side of the property.
The high ceilings and clean white interiors extend into the living area, which is air-conditioned and features a decorative fireplace creating a welcoming zone for family gatherings or quiet evenings.
A couple of steps down takes you to the rear extension of the terrace which incorporates a dining room, kitchen and combined bathroom/laundry. The near new kitchen is a wonderful space overlooking the garden with white panelled cabinetry, stainless steel under bench oven, gas cooktop, range hood and dishwasher. The recently upgrade bathroom and combined laundry follows the same white aesthetic of the kitchen with panelled timber cabinetry, white tiling and a frameless glass shower.
The charming family area is a welcoming communal space featuring exposed brick walls and high raked ceilings, a nod to the classic Freo warehouse. This open and inviting space is perfect for meals and gatherings and leads to the back garden, enhancing the indoor-outdoor living experience. The low-maintenance courtyard is a haven for relaxation and entertainment and the covered domed patio is perfect for summer evenings spent with friends and family. Outside is a second toilet in the original outhouse and a separate storeroom.
Living in Plympton means being part of a community known for its character homes, river precinct lifestyle, and distinctive community atmosphere.
This property's location is a true highlight where you can stroll along George Street and its eclectic blend of restaurants , bars, shops, health professionals, local schools, and nearby playgrounds.
It's the people and the places that make a community what it is and this property represents a wonderful opportunity to experience the best of Plympton living.
Don't miss your chance to make this charming terrace cottage your new home.
