OFFERS BY CLOSING DATE 16th AUGUST
Iconic Fremantle architect, Brian Klopper, oversaw every intricate detail throughout the build of this enchanting double storey home in the early 90s. Defining trademarks of exposed recycled Fremantle brick, timber-clad loft-style ceilings, jarrah framed architraves and black-iron casement windows maximise north-facing views from a supremely quiet cul-de-sac location.
This blissfully unique and close-knit enclave, surrounded by historical landmarks and heritage homes, borders beautiful Fremantle Park which is the stunning outlook from the upper floor living and kitchen, via intentionally placed windows and a grand, terracotta-tiled terrace evoking all the feels of the Mediterranean coast.
A double-height entrance void, framed by ceiling-to-floor cathedral-style casement windows, exposed brick, terracotta tiles and an open-riser timber-and-wrought-iron staircase, draws the eye to the highlights of this home.
Bolstered by two private bedrooms and a combined laundry and bathroom (rimmed in custom-designed hand-painted wall tiles and a jarrah-lined ceiling), the rear ground floor living room - equipped with bar and kitchenette and vaulted timber ceiling - leads to an enchanting two-tiered garden with a light-dappled limestone courtyard and cleared earth just waiting to be filled with an assortment of vegies and planter boxes.
Upstairs, the grand reveal of the open plan living, kitchen and dining is a truly breathtaking experience, laden with Klopper's trademark appointments.
Soaring vaulted (karri) timber ceilings, wrought-iron rafter ties, hexagonal metal & glass casement doors to the terrace, and stunning pulley lights, define this sunny space with a country-cabin style kitchen - clad entirely in timber and exposed brick - with stone benches, an open pantry, hand-painted wall tiles, and four-burner gas stove.
A discreet wall ladder leads to a very handy (open) loft above the kitchen, to accommodate extra storage or another zone to relax.
Occupying the rear of the home, a cozy cabin-like master suite - with vaulted ceilings and French jarrah doors to a Juliette balcony - includes a partially enclosed dressing room and a bright & sunny ensuite bathroom with garden vistas from the tub.
Other features include excellent natural airflow, a double carport with storage room and off-street parking for two more vehicles, deep, walk-in linen press, fully reticulated easy-care (mostly native) gardens, locks on doors and windows, Commander internal and external (entrance) intercom and a gas bayonet (living).
Close enough to Freo's energetic bustle, yet serene and private, this location offers walking access to it everything – Fishing Boat Harbour, the Fremantle Markets, Rottnest Ferry, Coles at The Woolstores, Port & Bather's Beaches, oodles of cafes, restaurants and bars, Fremantle train station, regular bus services and John Curtin College of the Arts - just over the hill.
