Escape to your own sweet serenity here by securing this very early 2 bedroom 1 bathroom stone cottage with plenty of natural light, enchanting architectural features and an independent 1x1 studio at the rear – ideal for generating some extra income in the form of an Airbnb or short-stay-accommodation rental.
Accompanying fantastic flexibility here are soaring high ceilings and solid wide wooden Jarrah floorboards, as well as stylish modern light fittings. A gated entry verandah reveals a large front second bedroom with built-in wardrobes and split-system air-conditioning. The master bedroom only metres away is also huge in size and plays host to built-in robes of its own, a ceiling fan and another split-system air-conditioner for climate control.
A central lounge room has panelled walls that evoke a relaxed coastal vibe, alongside split-system air-conditioning and gas-bayonet heating that ensure all seasons are covered. An adjacent open-plan dining area has a storage cupboard, ample power points and leads into an updated kitchen with double sinks, a double storage pantry, glass splashbacks, a Westinghouse stainless-steel dishwasher, a stainless-steel range hood and a gas cooktop/oven.
A sleek, white main bathroom plays host to a shower, vanity and a separate toilet. Off the kitchen, you will find a magnificent patio-entertaining deck with stairs taking you down to a large, sunken and north-facing backyard.
The studio at the rear has its own small patio and double-door access into an open-plan living, bedroom and kitchenette area with low-maintenance timber-look flooring, a Baumatic electric cooktop, a sink, split-system air-conditioner, a high angled ceiling and a fresh lick of paint. The ensuite/second bathroom off here is made up of a shower, toilet and vanity.
One of an unusual landmark pair of properties, this tuck-pointed semi benefits from a Fremantle address but is far enough removed from the hustle and bustle of the main South Terrace cappuccino strip and forms part of a quiet community street, only walking distance away from the centre of Fremantle, shopping and dining at nearby Wray Avenue, the lush Stevens Reserve, the local monument, public transport and is very close to excellent schools in the area. The term “home, sweet home” has never been more fitting!
