29 Swanbourne St, Fremantle WA 6160

SOLD BY REBEKAH VOS-JAMIESON

Don’t be fooled by this two-bedroom (plus a study), one-bathroom historic cottage right in the heart of Fremantle. Yes, it’s cute, but with 129sqm of internal living space and set on a 312sqm block, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the amount of space this green titled home offers.

Built in 1900, this brick and iron property boasts large rooms, high ceilings, polished floorboards, high skirting boards, timber window and door frames, picture rails and leadlight windows. The long hallway reaches to the heart of the home where you’ll find a large lounge room, a generous meals area and a kitchen with a huge fireplace with exposed brick and a Jotel wood burner.

Enjoy those cosy nights in with family and friends, or balmy summer evenings where you can entertain in either your front courtyard or rear garden. The limestone walls, with vines spilling over, are idyllic alfresco spaces to enjoy, depending on how the Fremantle doctor blows.

The study is perfect for those working from home or it could be used as a studio. Even the bathroom is filled with character, with feature wood panelling, limestone walls, a leadlight window and a bathtub with views to the garden.

Move-in ready, the kitchen and bathroom have been recently repainted, the laminate flooring in the kitchen is new and the home has been rewired. There is also the potential to add some serious value here by adding a master suite or studio upstairs with potential ocean views.

This superb location is just a short walk to Fremantle’s thriving café, bar and shopping tourist precinct. Situated opposite Paul Anthony Edwards Reserve (great for dog owners), you have easy access to public transport, arterial roads and Notre Dame University, and many historical attractions on your doorstep. Beach lovers will appreciate the proximity to South Beach, Bathers Beach and the East Fremantle riverside locale.

Rebekah Vos-Jamieson is ready for your call on 042 817 5643. Please don’t hesitate as this character home won’t stay on the market for long.
