Looking through tall shady trees to the green expanse of Monument Hill, this substantial and elegant stone home is a much-admired Fremantle landmark. Sensitively restored and updated to a very high standard with flowing living spaces, a fine Gaggenau kitchen, north-facing outdoor entertaining and restful gardens, this is a desirable family home with an enchanting atmosphere.
Living spaces are grand, airy and light, as the dining zone flows through to the lounge area, continuing through double doors to a sunroom with floor-to-ceiling glass walls offering peaceful leafy outlooks. The kitchen is superb, with waterfall marble benches, extensive cabinetry, Vintec wine storage, a study nook and a wine cellar carved out of the limestone below. Integrated dishwasher and fridge lend clean lines to the space, and the suite of Gaggenau appliances is of the highest quality. A large butler's pantry with additional dishwasher and sinks adds to the home's fabulous entertaining potential, and there is an additional bathroom behind the kitchen.
Three spacious bedrooms feature the original timber floors and high ceilings of the era, and two have en-suite bathrooms - one featuring a very cool oval bath. A fourth bedroom overlooking the back garden is the perfect place to work from home.
Outside, there are beautiful places to relax, gather with friends and family and enjoy the quiet, leafy surroundings. The wide bullnose verandah wraps around to the north, with delightful outdoor dining by the pizza oven under the tree, and there's a lovely spot on the back verandah, overlooking the serene pond and waterfall. The wide treed verges and corner position create the sense of an expansive estate, with convenient access from Knutsford Street to the stone garage building at the rear.
Come and experience the atmosphere of one of Fremantle's finest historic homes, superbly adapted for light-filled contemporary living in an excellent location walking distance to town.
