A striking expression of contemporary architecture and sustainable living, Montreal Commons has established itself as an iconic part of Fremantle's industrial arts quarter, combining award-winning design with an exceptional lifestyle setting.
Positioned within the creative Knutsford precinct and directly opposite Fremantle Golf Course, this level-one apartment forms part of the internationally recognised One Planet Living community, with the building having been carbon neutral since its completion in 2024. Powered entirely by renewable energy, the development incorporates rooftop solar PV, water-saving systems and considered waste-management initiatives, alongside beautifully landscaped communal spaces designed to bring residents together.
Beyond the secure entry, a scenic skywell connects the levels, with layered courtyards, abundant greenery, natural ventilation and filtered sunlight creating an impressive sense of openness throughout the complex. Residents also enjoy access to a spectacular rooftop terrace, complete with sweeping views across Fremantle, barbecue facilities, kitchenette and TV.
Inside, the apartment embraces the building's refined industrial aesthetic, pairing exposed concrete ceilings and black-framed glass with white plantation shutters and warm hybrid-timber floors.
The entry opens to a stylish bathroom with grey-and-white kit-kat tiling, positioned alongside a concealed European laundry. The secondary bedroom is thoughtfully designed for flexibility, featuring mirrored built-in robes, a queen-sized Murphy bed integrated into custom cabinetry and a peaceful outlook across the courtyard.
At the heart of the home, the open-plan kitchen, living and dining area captures beautiful golden-hour light before extending outdoors to a sheltered south-facing balcony with elevated views across the East Village.
The kitchen is both functional and beautifully appointed, centred around a waterfall-edge island and stone benchtops, with kit-kat tiled splashback, soft-closing cabinetry and quality Franke appliances.
Privately positioned to the opposite side of the living area, the carpeted master suite provides a generous retreat, complete with twin walk-in robes and a beautifully finished ensuite designed for two. Ducted and zoned air conditioning provides year-round comfort, while multiple power points, a private storeroom and a secure undercover car bay add everyday practicality.
Security is well considered, with guest intercom, fob access, gated basement parking and CCTV throughout the common areas.
Life at Montreal Commons extends well beyond the apartment itself. A central courtyard, communal herb gardens and fruit trees, dedicated bike storage and the rooftop entertaining area foster a genuine sense of community, while Kricket Local on the ground floor makes your morning coffee or an easy night off cooking particularly convenient.
Surrounded by Knutsford's creative energy and industrial heritage, this is a location that makes the most of Fremantle living. Walk or cycle to Booyeembara Park, Fremantle Golf Course and the George Street precinct, with Fremantle's town centre, river and beaches all within easy reach.
