40 Silas Street, East Fremantle WA 6158

This serene family home which is perfect for downsizers or young families wanting to be close to the action,
has it all - the advantages of a solidly built and beautifully maintained modern brick and iron home with
its traditional architectural features sitting perfectly in the streetscape in a great East Fremantle location with every convenience in walking distance.

The leadlight front door opens to a jarrah-floored hallway with two large bedrooms with lovely outlooks over the front garden, including the ground floor master bedroom with walk-in-robe and spacious en-suite with corner spa bath. These are very quiet and restful rooms, with double-glazed windows. Off a central lobby with generous storage cupboards is another bathroom with bath and separate toilet, and the third bedroom is also well-appointed, with built-in-robes and luxurious window drapes.

The heart of the home is the big lounge, dining room and kitchen - interconnected and open plan, but cleverly separated into three zones, so the dining room has the sense of its own cosy space, with good northern light and sliding doors opening to the alfresco area. Through white-painted timber and glass doors is a separate TV room with timber stairs climbing to a little loft room above - handy for a spare bed, or just a great place for kids or grand kids, with a real cubby feeling. It's part of the good design sense throughout this home, where it's easy to be together but also easy to have some separation and solitude when you want it.

The kitchen is a big, practical space with granite benchtops, plenty of storage and a walk-in pantry. Light streams in from the back garden, and perfectly located behind the kitchen is a good-sized laundry with sliding doors to the outside.

Up the carpeted stairs you'll find a secluded study nook with a high window overlooking the front garden. Double doors open to the upstairs bedroom, which would make a great teenage retreat, and you also have the advantage of a door giving access to the big storage space in the roof.

The beautiful established gardens are a real feature of this home, from the pretty front gardens to the shady, private and tranquil gardens at the rear. The cool alfresco off the living area is a relaxing space for outdoor dining under the sail-shade.

This is a well-designed, very comfortable, low-maintenance home in an excellent location where everything you need is close by. You can walk to the river, the George St Precinct is around the corner and a range of shops, restaurants and services and the river are all in walking distance.
