Set behind a white picket fence, this renovated and extended character home is set amongst tranquil gardens with a sparkling swimming pool. A variation of Federation Bungalow architecture, the appealing facade features tuck pointed red face brick walls and double hung timber windows with a gable roof. Situated in a convenient position on Holland Street close to local cafes, parkland, and Fremantle Golf Course, in the catchment for John Curtin College of the Arts.
Enter the home via a wide front verandah with new timber decking. There's plenty of room to sit with a cuppa and watch the local birdlife in the surrounding established trees. A garden shed provides plenty of room to store bikes. The side of the house provides enough space to store canoes, and equipment alongside a lime tree and herb garden. Inside the home, wide hallways and soaring ceilings create airy and expansive spaces, with freshly sanded and polished jarrah flooring. The front living room features an ornamental fireplace, picture rails and a high ornate ceiling.
Accommodation consists of a spacious main bedroom suite with a near new double wardrobe, fireplace, and decorative ceiling. The secondary bedrooms are also roomy, and bedroom three opens through to a separate study with built in cabinetry. The modern bathroom features a deep cast iron claw foot bathtub where you can soak away stress at the end of the day.
The kitchen located in the rear extension was renovated just a few months ago, but retains the working Metters wood stove, a wonderful piece of history and a reminder of the craftsmanship of a bygone era. You can really cook up a storm in the kitchen with stone benchtops, 900mm Bosch oven with gas stove top, integrated dishwasher, and large dual sinks overlooking the pool and alfresco. In the backyard, the north facing alfresco with a view of mature trees and eucalypts has a real 'down south' feel. This area is made for entertaining. The kids can splash in the heated saltwater pool from Barrier Reef, washing off afterwards under the warm outdoor shower. Meanwhile, adults will enjoy cooking in the open air in the built-in pizza oven.
This renovated and extended cottage has been cared for and improved by the current owners over the past 21 years. They have loved living here, in a great community with friendly neighbours, enjoying local amenities such as the updated 'shark park' East Fremantle Oval. This central location is just a few minutes' drive from the George Street precinct, North Fremantle, and the river foreshore, where you can enjoy water views from The Left Bank or Dome Café. In the catchment for John Curtin College of The Arts and East Fremantle Primary School.
