This single-story two bedroom stone and iron house has stood proud amongst the hustle and bustle of North Fremantle since the 1890s (age estimate 1890s-1920). Although the address is Tydeman Road, the owners have created a more private entry via Pearse Street with its close-knit community and private walkway to access nearby beaches. This home will suit people who appreciate heritage features, easy access to beaches, the river, cafes, bars, and nightlife - with the bonus of a wonderful community.
Enter via Pearse Street where the front verge has been transformed into a cottage garden with beds and an olive tree. A cute wrap-around porch houses the leadlight front door. Step into the entry hall to the home's heritage features such as wide Jarrah floorboards, high ceilings, picture rails, pendant lighting with feature ceiling roses, and more.
To the left of the entry hall is the second bedroom. To the right is the primary bedroom with original corner fireplace, now a decorative feature. One wall contains built-in robes and plenty of storage. French doors open to the porch and private front courtyard. The home has excellent security throughout and accessibility via Pearse Street.
Relax in the living area with its high ceilings, large window looking out to Pearse Street, and corner fireplace that houses a functioning cast iron stove for the cooler months. The living area marks the end of the original cottage. The home is a stone's throw to the bustling Queen Victoria Street district with your café and nightlife favourites, gourmet bakery, and health and fitness services.
The modern open plan kitchen and dining area is made more comfortable with sky lights, air conditioning, and additional storage. The kitchen has excellent lighting and design and includes dishwasher, induction stove top, and feature stone benchtops. There is ample storage both above and below benches as well as plenty of workspace area in the kitchen.
The bathroom / laundry is functional, light, and bright. It contains vanity, WC, and mini corner spa with shower. There is a cleaver use of space with the European laundry where fittings for washing machine and additional shelving is contained out of sight. The home is located a short stroll to the wonderful community hubs of North Fremantle Social Farm and North Freo Bowlo community centre.
The shaded rear courtyard is neatly finished with limestone pavers. The wooden barn-style double doors leading from the garage to the courtyard make an additional feature. Handy side gate means you can return from the beach and use the outdoor shower before stepping into the home. The single lock up garage contains a sky light and room for storage.
