In a commanding position perched high above the surrounding streetscape, this early Federation Bungalow is a charming example of Fremantle’s rich history. Beyond the brick and wrought iron fence, stairs rise towards its grand presence of stone walls with brick quoins (beneath a newly installed roof) and the west-facing veranda that wraps around to the front door down the side. With a series of outdoor spaces to enjoy, modern updates throughout, and the rare bonus of a huge double garage via rear laneway access – this is an exceptional residence, and the location couldn’t be better. The hustle-and-bustle of Freo’s vibrant heart is immediately on your doorstep, where you can walk to just about anything; Wray Avenue round the corner, cafés, shops, restaurants, bars, public transport, or the beach minutes away.

Inside, it’s wonderfully quiet from all the action nearby, as fresh white interiors harmoniously meet the warmth of wide jarrah floors, gracious period features and sweeping high ceilings. Three original bedrooms span the unusually long arched hallway, two with French doors to the veranda, and all with ceiling fans and decorative fireplaces – inclusive of a master retreat with skylight above and semi-ensuite access through French doors that lead to a shower, double vanity, and toilet. There’s also ducted and zoned, air-conditioning for year-round comfort in this part of the home.

Continue through as layers of history seamlessly merge into the contemporary extension: exposed brick in the dining area, stainless steel benchtops and modern appliances in the bright white kitchen, and wonderful indoor-outdoor flow to the north-facing courtyard surrounded by the leafy greenery of pretty climbing vines. The European-style laundry is cleverly concealed behind a wall of built-in cupboards, with excellent storage, as a series of glass and steel-framed bi-folds stack open to the courtyard, alongside a quiet, air-conditioned living space. Finally, at the rear is the spacious double garage, with loft storage space above – an absolute rarity for this central location.

This is what Freo living is all about – an historical treasure with all the modern touches to call home, and one of the best walkable lifestyles on offer.
