The Hedonistic 1980s!
Grand Mediterranean Masterpiece by La Villa Homes
With Hilltop Ocean Views
This home would’ve been the most exciting thing going around during its construction in the peak of the heady 1980s and is the type of home that personified this suburb at the time!
Perched high on the hill, with tremendous ocean views, this colossal, architecturally significant home, built over three levels was constructed with the very best of everything.
A grand curved external stairway guides you to the front door and allows you to mentally transition from the street as you take in the homes inspiring presence. Sweeping, surround verandas capture the ocean views. Leone Spiccia inspired “wheel house” corner windows which drew their inspiration from the crayfishing fleets running in and out of Fremantle, demand your attention. This is a bold, confident and exciting power home.
Internally the home is warm and inviting. Double storey voids greet you on entry. The living areas and the bedrooms are all generous in size. There are open fireplaces fitted with convenient gas logs on both floors.
All living areas flow onto ocean view balconies to the west and all-weather protected pool gardens to the east, such that the architecture naturally draws you in to an indoor outdoors lifestyle habitually.
The parquetry floors under foot still add warmth and have design relevance to this day, as to do the authentic imported European terracotta floor tiles. The kitchen is fitted with Gaggenau appliances.
There is a grand internal staircase with timber balustrades. There is a double garage which has a gym alongside it (which is exactly the same size as a third garage) +2 adjacent storerooms, giving every imaginable space for storage.
The master bedroom is in a genuine “suite” with its own entry to a long corridor which has a cavernous walk-in-robe at one end, an ensuite bathroom at mid ships with its own ocean view spa, and the master suite at the ocean end, flowing effortlessly onto its own terrace balcony with sweeping ocean views up and down the coastline.
The views are so elevated that you’re looking down over the dunes directly ahead and during the winter months can watch the waves break. To the Southwest there are clear views of Rottnest. To the South you can see Garden Island and Fremantle Port beyond the park at the end of your street, and to the north is Observation City.
Both Fremantle Port and Observation City as well as the Gage Roads shipping channel, become vivid at nighttime so that you can derive 24 hour pleasure from your view.
The lifestyle here is enviable. Check out the ocean over your morning coffee and scoot across the road for your daily dip in the Indian Ocean. Walk your dog in the magnificent park network at the end of your street. Retire to the backyard for languorous summer afternoons which extend into the balmy evenings, over a drink with friends, and maybe a swim or a barbecue. Once the Fremantle Doctor has arrived, enjoy the complete protection that this east facing alfresco dining, lounging and pool gardens provide - the true City Beach Holy Grail in terms of orientation!
Life is good here… welcome to The Parks District City Beach.
* Please note that in the pre-release of this marketing we attributed this home to the stable of iconic 1980s Architect Leone Spiccia, who was prolific in City Beach at the time, due to it having many of his tell-tail traits. We can find no written record of Spiccia plans in the archives. We contacted Leon himself who believes 99% that it was one of his designs, but it was such a busy time of his life that he cannot be 100% sure. For this reason, we have removed all reference to Leone Spiccia and make no representations in this regard.
