AUCTION 10.30AM Saturday - Open from 10am. Be Early and Enjoy!
You'll be in awe of this totally funky home the moment you walk through the door and you'll think - this is Fremantle. This rustic industrial theme hits the Freo vibe. Once the gate is closed with the car securely parked and you walk into this house, you'll feel a little bit of calm, easing into a relaxing space and the world falls away. This is really home and you'll love spending your time here and so will your friends and family.
Immediately you're surrounded by timber, quirky rooms and loft spaces, but the entry doesn't really prepare you for what's on the other side of those glass doors. Once through, you stand in between the completely private and cosy lounge/library to the left overlooking the verdant garden and to the right you are in the Great Room, with soaring timber ceilings and splashes of colour, with natural light flooding the room through the multitude of windows along the eastern and northern walls. This spectacular room invites you to congregate, its the perfect place for large family gatherings, celebrations and elegant dinner parties. Yet although the space is immense, it is transformed into a cosy, comfy nook as soon as you light the wood burning fire. It not only warms the space quickly but it provides a homely focal point that creates a smaller world existing only where the light of the fire reaches. This is the place to unwind after work with a glass of red.
In the mornings, the eastern light will wake up the whole room, and you can enjoy your morning coffee looking over your secret garden, filled with birds and trees. What a way to wake up!
The next question is, which bedroom do you want to use?
The current master is in a loft over the front of the house affording a gorgeous western view, capturing every sunset. This snug and cosy retreat has its own mezzanine area, perfect for reading a book, playing the guitar, or a space to exercise while you're overlooking the Great Room.
The second loft is spacious and away from the main living area. The stairs are more of a ladder so this would be a fabulous room for the teenager, with east and west windows and a sense of being apart from the rest of the home. The other two bedrooms are off the living area, and both are a good size, with one a double and a handy room to use as a master if stairs aren't your thing.
The master bathroom has a bath you can sink into and the second bathroom is perfect for the teenager being near their loft. On top of all this space, you have a dedicated study of a good size right by the front door.
The rear garden beckons all year 'round, with an active vegie patch, plus fruiting trees; oranges, mulberries, grapes and a very prolific fig tree, with a canopy over summer of a beautiful Jacaranda. Outdoor dining is just off the living area and to the side is a seated area near the bubbling fountain, where a fire pit in winter would be delightful. There is storage out the back in the form of an old railway cabin.
This street is a social and happy street where neighbours gather regularly in the dedicated park to celebrate through the year. You are only minutes away from the South Terrace café strip and ten minutes walk from both South Beach and Fremantle. You'll leave your car all day as catching a train, either by walking or cat bus becomes your preferred method of transport. For food, you are spoiled for choice with 'The Local' just around the corner, Ootong and Licoln, Little Lefroys, the Roasting Warehouse and many more quirky spots to eat and drink in walking distance. This is a location that epitomises the Fremantle Lifestyle just as the home epitomises the Fremantle Style. This is a must see!
