All the grace and charm of 1912 a tuck-pointed brick and iron classic meets the luxury of a seamless architect-designed extension in this perfectly presented home in a wonderfully walkable location.
Leave the car at home on the weekends to enjoy everything Fremantle has to offer, and stroll back to simply enjoy the space and relaxation of a home of the highest quality, where every detail has been considered. You'll love the deep verandah, large bedrooms, very high ceilings, jarrah and marri floors, and superb kitchen with waterfall bench of pale granite. The open-plan living with its wall of concertina doors opens to a high-walled courtyard, where tropical gardens abound with flourishing frangipani. On a no-through-road with minimal traffic, it's central yet secluded and offers the perfect combination of location, historic charm, modern luxury and low-maintenance easy living.
Through the limestone wall and automatic security gate, the wide verandah with traditional bullnose roof sits above the street to catch the breezes. The leadlight front door opens to a lofty jarrah-floored hallway with ceiling rose, and two large gracious bedrooms overlook the verandah. A third bedroom off the hallway features the spacious built-in storage and foldaway ceiling fans found in all the bedrooms.
There's a sense of space, light and volume as the home opens up to the living, dining and kitchen, where the high ceilings echo the height of the original home.
There is fine built-in jarrah cabinetry for the entertainment systems, big northern windows for natural light and a fabulous, simply elegant kitchen with white cabinetry and spectacular pale natural granite tops. With a concealed cocktail cabinet, appliance nook, Ilve double oven, five-burner cooktop, walk-in pantry and plenty of storage, it's as functional as it is glamorous.
Clever hi-tech frameless windows create a servery to the courtyard for easy entertaining.
Beyond the living area is the laundry with excellent storage, and the big white bathroom features a stylish Villeroy and Boch rectangular basin and spa bath.
There's an outdoor shower for rinsing off after the beach, as well as the original outdoor loo with handbasin.
The double garage has two single doors, with one half currently converted to a home office, easily converted back should you wish to accommodate two cars.
Here, the early 20th century character comes with up-to-date convenience and a range of thoughtful features: solar power, security cameras, a new zoned air-conditioning system that can be activated remotely, louvres for cross-ventilation, automatic retractable awning over the courtyard, gas point for the barbecue, block-out blinds and sophisticated windows in the original double-hung style but without the maintenance.
