Few homes express the essence of old Fremantle so well, but here at The Village, in a bespoke complex of only 12, this is it. Provincial character, coastal ease and rustic charm are woven together as one, and the location is a dream: wander down Wray Avenue's vibrant gateway into town, grab a meal or drink along South Terrace or head to the beach for a refreshing dip.
Inside and out, it's unmistakably old world: weathered brick, recycled warm timbers in jarrah and oak, and sash windows framing the outlooks. Through the wide veranda looking east and stained-glass front door, layers of texture and craft are revealed, with the contemporary addition of white plantation shutters. The lofty interiors are remarkable, carrying that openness from the upstairs open-plan living into each of the high-ceilinged ground-floor bedrooms.
The timber kitchen evokes a country cottage feel, complete with sea-green tiled splashback, integrated gas stovetop and electric oven, while the open fire is perfect for wintery nights. Home entertaining couldn't be easier: enjoy lively dinner parties under the exposed timber trusses and raked ceilings or spill out to the south-facing balcony to catch a sunset.
Downstairs feels like quiet sanctuary, with two carpeted bedrooms, including the master featuring twin built-in robes, a ceiling fan and split-system air. A tiled study with bespoke built-in American cherry cabinetry sits opposite a chic bathroom, while the laundry and internal garage access lead to a private courtyard alfresco draped in English ivy, frangipani, oleander and more.
It all adds up to feel every part Freo, with all the joys of complete lifestyle ease.
