1 Clayton Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

Built by a shipwright in circa 1910, “Como” is the prettiest character home you'll find, designed in unusually charming architectural symmetry with wide bullnose verandahs on three sides and sitting on an elevated 981sqm landholding with beautiful professional landscaping. In traditional tuck-pointed brick with wide jarrah floors, the home combines period detailing with fresh white decor - you'll love the atmosphere here and the wonderful sense of space in the lawns and gardens, which offer every opportunity for future extensions.

The wide entrance hall has lovely leadlight doors at each end, both opening to the verandah, and the bedrooms and living room also have their own French doors to the verandah so the home opens up to it surroundings in a way that is rare for homes of this era, enabling you to enjoy its private exterior spaces secluded behind high hedges.

A central vestibule opens to high-ceilinged, light-filled bedrooms on both sides and the elegant living room is at the front of the home, featuring the white plantation shutters found throughout.
The dining room at the rear connects to a delightful kitchen with six-burner Smeg range and the stylish grey and white bathroom, with European laundry, is filled with northern light.

White-painted timber and glass bifold doors open to the rear deck, which is a lovely place to relax and look over the expansive lawns and gardens, with lemon, lime, fig and almond trees and bordered by dozens of elegant bay trees.
There's an old clawfoot bath (with hot water for a restorative soak!) and the gardens are lit beautifully at night, as well as fully reticulated from a bore. This rare historic home has the modern comforts of ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning, front security gate with pin, automatic driveway gates and intercom.

This picture-perfect home is simply a delight - ideal to move in and enjoy its serene atmosphere in the knowledge that this large landholding has every possibility for more should you decide to extend and make the most of a very convenient East Fremantle location close to shops, schools and transport and minutes to the river and central Fremantle.
