Some homes are built to impress. Others are built to be lived in. This remarkable 4 bedroom 2 bathroom two-storey haven atop the hill in East Fremantle effortlessly achieves both.
Cleverly embracing an ergonomic reverse floor plan that captures glorious easterly sunshine, refreshing natural cross-flow ventilation and sweeping inland, hill and river views stretching all the way to iconic Point Walter, it's an abode that has been thoughtfully designed to work with nature rather than against it - remaining wonderfully warm through winter and beautifully cool in summer with little more than a few minutes of fresh air when the windows are open.
Lovingly cherished by owners who have called it home while building their successful business in nearby Fremantle, this is a property filled with stories, soul and genuine pride of ownership. Now, with the business sold and the last of the children having spread their wings, the time has come to hand over the keys to a new family ready to create their own unforgettable chapter.
Peacefully nestled within a friendly, welcoming street where neighbours become lifelong friends, the home's distinctive flagpole adds yet another touch of personality to an already unforgettable residence. Preceding a striking leadlight double-door entrance is a trickling front-garden water feature.
Downstairs, a spacious fourth bedroom - or study option - sits behind a gorgeous French door and looks pleasantly out to the front garden. Another French door adds privacy to a central lounge/living room that can be whatever you want it to be and has a built-in bar with a sink, storage and a Devanti drinks fridge. It also seamlessly extends outdoors to a fabulous alfresco-entertaining deck with remote-controlled café/shade blinds, a Gasmate mains-gas barbecue, a Gasmate mains-gas pizza oven, a double-door drinks fridge and a connecting garden courtyard with fairy lights and its own flowing water features.
Back inside, a huge second bedroom is light, bright and has built-in double-door wardrobes. The third, also with double built-in robes, is massive and enjoys semi-ensuite access into a fully-tiled main family bathroom with a shower, vanity and under-bench storage. A broom cupboard, a powder room - with a vanity and under-bench storage - and a separate laundry (with two linen presses, a laundry chute to one of them, more storage and access out to a breezy and spacious drying courtyard with two clotheslines and a large lock-up storeroom) complete this part of the layout.
Also on the lower level is a secure remote-controlled double lock-up garage with two new door motors, access out to the back deck, internal shopper's entry and a handy side workshop area with storage and ample power points.
Upstairs, an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and family area comprises of new window treatments, a gas bayonet for heating, a feature recessed ceiling and a remote-controlled external blind to its main large window. It also, via double sliding doors, flows out on to a generous under-cover front balcony with remote internal blinds and a mesmerising combination of a river, hill and valley outlook to savour.
The stylish kitchen itself features sparkling granite bench tops, a French-door walk-in pantry, new cupboards and tiled splashbacks, an Asko dishwasher, a stainless-steel Smeg range hood, a five-burner Asko gas cooktop and quality Neff microwave and oven appliances.
Another French door reveals the main-bedroom wing, where you will discover a double linen press, a second powder room (with a vanity and under-bench storage) and a commodious master suite with an external remote blind and direct front-balcony access. A large walk-in robe leads through to a sumptuous fully-tiled ensuite with a bubbling spa bath, a separate shower, twin "his and hers" vanities and under-bench storage.
Embrace all of the perks of living in East Freo, with the nearest bus stop on the corner complemented by easy access into Fremantle and its beautiful surrounding beaches. East Fremantle Primary School and Richmond Primary School can also be found nearby, along with the picturesque Swan River itself, lush riverside parklands, outstanding community sporting facilities, Little Fire on ever-popular George Street, the May Street Larder, The Left Bank, additional public-transport routes and a host of shopping options - Fresh Provisions and Woolworths Palmyra included.
Rich in character, wonderfully practical and blessed with a lifestyle location that's second to none, this is far more than just another house - it's a home with heart, intelligence and a vista you'll never tire of!
