SOLD BY CONNIE HANDCOCK
Directly facing the harbour and its scenic display of twinkling cranes above the water, the multi-award-winning 'Heirloom' by Match complex is the perfect embodiment of Freo living: a beautifully restored building filled with historical significance, one of the best walkable locations to just about anything, and a two-bedroom, two-bathroom loft-style warehouse apartment that makes the most of it all. Walk to Gesha & Co. around the corner for your daily coffee, stroll to the river or beach, commute by train or bus from the central transport hub minutes away, and explore all of Freo's main attractions by foot whether it's dining, live music, museums, art galleries, markets, or more - you'll never tire of the lifestyle this Portside city offers.
Set within the iconic Dalgety Woolstores building on the third floor, the heritage charm and refined modern style is immediately evident: high angled ceilings, exposed timber beams, and walls of warehouse glass that create a transparent yet secluded feeling from its enviable top-floor position. Natural light spills across the French oak timber floors, as the open-plan living extends to an east-facing balcony with views high above the atrium-style courtyard for residents below. The glossy white kitchen is elegantly simple with touch-opening cabinetry and sleek electric Bosch cooking appliances, paired with matching benchtops and splashbacks that wrap around the L-shaped layout. Nearby, a European-style laundry is discreetly concealed behind sliding doors, alongside a bathroom opposite the lower-level bedroom - complete with air-conditioning and a walk-in robe.
Upstairs, the mezzanine master bedroom with ensuite (currently used as a serene living area and home office space) hints at its warehouse origins as black steel beams meet century-old jarrah. Carpet underfoot, another split-system air-conditioning unit, and a row of sliding, built-in wardrobes perfectly complement this lofty retreat.
From the fob-access lift to the third-floor, with a communal lounge area that fosters a sense of community amongst residents, to the secure undercover parking for two vehicles (and a storeroom) - the security of this building is second to none, with friendly neighbours that look out for one another.
You'll love everything this warehouse apartment offers with all the ease of a fabulous location and lifestyle - what a wonderful opportunity to make it your own.
