You really can't judge a book by its cover!
Surrounded by greenery, with a wide, tree lined verge as a neighbour on one side and the gorgeous Parmelia Park to the rear, this hidden gem is in a world all of its own! Sitting in the centre of a very friendly, welcoming community, only a short stroll away from everything you could ever possibly need, beaches, shops, doctors, restaurants, bars, the works, both the setting and location of 3 Lloyd Street are truly outstanding. This mysterious property presents a very rare opportunity to secure your own exceptionally special piece of South Fremantle.
Whilst seemingly quite underdressed at an initial glance, all the heavy lifting and structural elements of a renovation have been completed, so now this diamond in the rough is ready for you to move straight in, and then wrap in the cladding of your choice. The bathrooms and kitchen have been completely rebuilt from the ground up and all plumbing and electrics have be replaced. Some of the walls have been stripped back and packed full of insulation and it's all been topped off with a brand-new roof. Now this sweet home is ready and waiting for its new owner to re-clad, possibly expose the original veranda which is currently enclosed, and reveal to the world the beautiful South Fremantle cottage that's hidden beneath this deceptive exterior.
From the moment you walk through the door, this adorable cottage has a lovely feel, full of 1930's character features you'd expect to find in a house of this era. Timber floors, gorgeous doors and frames, large bedrooms and high skirting boards are all present and accounted for, there is even the old Metter's stove and hearth adding warmth to the open plan living area. All the rooms have picturesque outlooks, and the open plan kitchen and lounge are bathed in natural light. The kitchen is fresh and new, with space for a dining table and fitted with stainless appliances; a gas cooktop, electric oven, and dishwasher, and the interaction with the lounge and accessibility to the outdoor entertaining area is ideal when guests call around.
The spacious garden is a wonderland, with luscious plants, green lawns and established shade trees, making it easy to imagine perfect summer days enjoying long table lunches with family and friends, relaxing with a good book or watching the kids play in this truly enchanting space.
The location is an absolute standout. With only one neighbour, the corner position and magical outlook onto lush, green tree canopies of the wide verges and neighbouring park offer a feeling of space and freedom, something you don't often find amongst South Fremantle's gorgeous cottage lined streets. Lovely and quiet, yet within easy stroll of literally everything you could ever need including stunning beaches, gourmet supermarkets, schools, health centres, bars, restaurants, and world famous bakeries, you'll be trading in your second car for a couple of nice bikes! In this tightly held suburb, this unbeatable location and unique setting make 3 Lloyd Street one of the South Fremantle's most prized lots.
This hidden gem is such an unexpected and lovely surprise, and the more you look the more you realise how special she is. Whilst not looking her Saturday night best, all she needs is a new dress and she will be ready for a night on the Terrace. For those needing a larger family home, architect concept sketches are available for some stunning extension ideas.
If you are looking for a home to downsize to, or that special property to turn into your dream family home, 3 Lloyd Street is such a surprise package that it is well worth the look, and you'll be happy that you did.
You will need to be quick to inspect, this one definitely won't last long!
