SOLD - STEFANIE DOBRO, WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS!
Nestled in the sought-after Plympton Ward of East Fremantle, this stunning abode effortlessly blends its original brick cottage exterior with a sleek, contemporary timber design, hinting at the luxury that awaits inside. Positioned within a dreamy streetscape rich in architectural character and history, and only minutes from the fashionable George Street shopping precinct, this location claims prestige and an enviable lifestyle.
Beyond the tree lined verge, an enchanting garden of frangipani and foxtail agave welcomes you up to the original east facing veranda, enjoying a delightful vantage point against this home’s impressive 24.5m street frontage.
A testament to effortless elegance, original features seamlessly blend with contemporary design through a plethora of inviting spaces for gathering, entertaining or retreating. Polished jarrah floorboards, sweeping high ceilings and wide skirtings pay homage to the 1950s origins with three bedrooms positioned at the front of the home. Each with built-in robes, white plantation shutters, and a stylish ensuite off the main bedroom (complete with a toilet, walk-in shower and spa-like rainwater shower head above), they offer a serene escape from the world.
Leading down from the separate living area (which can be sectioned off with a glass sliding door), historical charm meets contemporary living as the original jarrah floorboards marry into sophisticated polished concrete, and the heart of the home in this refined extension. The expansive kitchen boasts white glossy cabinetry, stone bench tops, timber accents against subway tiling, and top-of-the-line appliances including a freestanding De’Longhi 900mm oven, Miele dishwasher and stainless steel LG fridge. The lengthy island is a chef’s delight for those who love to cook and interact with guests at the same time. Flooded with natural light, the lounge and dining area feel airy and bright, thanks to the walls of louvre windows welcoming in sun rays and gentle breezes.
Identical aesthetics are continued in the second bathroom, complementing the master ensuite’s design with hexagonal mosaic tiling, sleek white and timber vanity, and large bath and shower, while the concealed European laundry sits adjacent to the separate WC. Downstairs the original garage has been converted into an activity/tv room with excellent storage, adding to the abundance of options for each family member to find a space of their own within this flexible floor plan.
Stairs coaxing you outdoors lead up to the exquisite rooftop terrace; the ultimate entertaining space with glimpses of surrounding rooftops, treed vistas and magical sunsets. It’s made for alfresco dining under the stars, intimate dinner parties, a quiet meal or drink anytime of the day, even a spot of sunrise yoga before a leisurely wander towards George Street’s array of shops and cafes. A fourth bedroom here can be offered as its own private guest quarters, multi-generational living or teenager’s retreat, providing seclusion whilst still connected to the main home.
Outside at the rear of the home you’ll find a raised timber deck framed by easy-care artificial lawn, leading to a private study (perfect for those who work from home) with an enclosed rock garden visible from the windows. Gardening enthusiasts will love the possibility of transforming this space into a living wall of plants or edible garden. A single car bay is accessed via Marmion Street behind a secure gate.
The community feel of this welcoming neighbourhood is one of the many reasons locals love living here. Close to Fremantle, the river, shops and restaurants with excellent schools nearby - embrace this wonderful opportunity to be part of this exclusive enclave within East Fremantle.
