1930s grandeur, two homes in one

Perched proudly in the tightly held enclave on Richmond Hill, this impressive 1930s classic sits on a full 911sqm block, with the river just metres down the hill.
Beautifully maintained and cleverly extended, it offers a range of possibilities for multi-generational living or rental income. A self-contained two-bedroom dwelling flows from the rear, configured for independent living, or easily incorporated as part of this expansive home.
With period features intact, including fabulous deco detailing, jarrah floors, and very high ceilings, it is a fine example of the inter-war California Bungalow style of architecture. Elevated, set in established gardens, and so near the shores of the Swan, this is a privileged position for a fine and very flexible family home. Stone walls, hedging and automatic gates line the front of the property, and beyond is terraced lawn and paved parking for several vehicles - or room for a pool, if you wish. The exterior of limestone footings, brick and render is true to the era; the extensive lead lights are fabulous, and the elevated veranda offers glimpses of the swan river. A second storey would provide an uninterrupted view down the river to the city.
Inside, the wide jarrah hallway emphasises the homes' grandeur, with leadlight doors to the dining room or second living. The curvy pillow stone fireplace, picture rails and ornate ceilings are examples of the historic features that add such character throughout the original home. The master bedroom enjoys the view over the front garden, and incorporates a walk-in-robe, a very cool modern ensuite, and French doors to its own private side courtyard. Down the hallway is another bathroom and two more jarrah-floored bedrooms.
It all opens up to spacious living, dining, and kitchen in granite and timber, with double doors opening to a huge timber floored alfresco. Behind the kitchen is the laundry and separate toilet, a study nook, and a door to the two-bedroom unit beyond - designed so it can be separate, or flow together with the main home if desired. With its own sleek bathroom, and kitchen/living/dining opening to the alfresco, access can be independent down the long magnolia-lined driveway. It's ideal for having older relatives close by, providing space for adult children with their own family, or generating rental income.
This truly coveted location offers it all with the East Fremantle Tennis Club and East Fremantle Yacht Club at the end of the street, as well as Bicton's Quarantine Park and Bicton Baths within a stones throw, and adding in the close proximity to Fremantle……this is a rare offering.
