This charming, fully renovated family residence sits in the residential heart of one of East Fremantle's most historic precincts on a sprawling 981sqm block.
Characterised by sprawling blocks and meandering tree-lined avenues, the street is home to families, children, friends and neighbourhood get togethers.
The original 1930s home has been lovingly and meticulously restored with period features retained and modern amenities seamlessly integrated to bring it into line with the needs of the modern family.
The original leadlight glass front door leads into a wide, welcoming hallway with original polished jarrah floorboards, high ceilings and original cornices and ceiling roses.
Bedrooms either side are welcoming and warm with a nod to both the past and the present and offer a peaceful sanctuary for younger family members.
The spacious main suite has been remodelled and restored with the same rigorous attention to detail and boasts a wall of floor to ceiling built-in robes, a modern ensuite and an air of uncomplicated sophistication.
A separate study is rich in original features and ambience with a leafy outlook over this home's meticulously maintained modern front garden.
The new, chef's kitchen with a commercial grade stainless steel oven, gas cooktop and integrated range hood is the hub of this family home and is seamlessly linked with the open plan living area beyond.
Stone benchtops, bright white custom made cabinetry and a graphic black and white tiled feature floor complement the appealing mix of the modern and the original.
A light filled L shaped dining and lounge space with a vista of windows overlooking the sprawling, terraced backyard beyond, ensures this home has a very relaxed but elegant vibe.
The rear garden, although meticulously landscaped and maintained, with a garden shed in the rear, offers its new residents the opportunity to put their own stamp on this much loved family home.
A decked undercover entertaining area with barbecue is the perfect setting for peaceful afternoons with friends, neighbours food and wine.
Explore further and you will find a flourishing vegetable garden and a second paved area, which offers up a multitude of options.
Ideally located within the Richmond Primary School and John Curtin College of the Arts catchment areas, within easy reach of the George Street shopping precinct, the river, Fremantle and a long list of cafes, restaurants and bars, this is a family home that comes with a rich and varied lifestyle.
