Up on the hill between the river and George Street's vibrant precinct – this is the total Plympton package. From the outset, a character-laden façade and serene garden setting fit perfectly into this historic streetscape, while beyond lies a home of surprising space, versatility, and unmistakable Freo personality. Originally built c.1920, later renewed and extended to accommodate a growing family, it also comes with the wonderful bonus of a two-storey granny flat to the rear – ideal for multi-generational living, guests, au pair quarters, or even an income stream.
Surrounded by a beautiful native garden filled with birdsong, a timber veranda wraps around to the front door – tucked away from view. Inside, a front living area reveals elegant interiors: warm jarrah floors, high ceilings, decorative ceiling roses, and white plantation shutters. A study nook with a built-in desk overlooks the rear alfresco, while a spacious master suite sits at the front of the home with full-height built-in robes, a walk-in robe, ceiling fan, and stylish ensuite. Up the timber stairs, a carpeted landing leads to two more bedrooms, each with air conditioning and ceiling fans and the warmth of a chimney flue in one. Both share a refined bathroom in a Victorian palette of sage, black and white.
At the heart of it all, the timber-ceilinged extension flows outdoors to a sheltered alfresco, while the open-plan layout encompasses a casual living area with a cozy wood-fire heater, a skylit laundry adjacent (complete with guest powder room) and a generous dining room that also opens outdoors. The kitchen continues the period-style elegance with sage cabinetry, granite benchtops, a filtered water tap, walk-in pantry, ASKO dishwasher, and a magnificent Italian 800mm freestanding oven with gas stovetop.
Outside, a sunny courtyard sits alongside the large alfresco, with a lovely back garden with fruit trees. Tucked around the corner is a storage shed, formally a pottery studio, with another shed by the eastern boundary. Complementing the main home's design, the two-storey granny flat features an air-conditioned open plan living, dining, and kitchen (with laundry nook and ceiling fan) while a spiral staircase rises to a serene bedroom overlooking the back garden – complete with a walk-in robe, ensuite, ceiling fan, and air-conditioning.
This is effortless family living in East Fremantle's prized Plympton Ward – walk to the river, Glasson Park, and George Street's range of eateries, before coming home to peace, privacy, and contemporary ease.
