26 Holdsworth Street

Fremantle WA 6160

Entry tiles to a quaint timber-decked veranda lead to this beautifully restored home which celebrates over 130 years of Fremantle life.

The interior is a tasteful scene of bright white against rich and polished, wide jarrah boards.
High ceilings throughout add a feeling of spacious calm, with a stunning decorative archway and original ceiling roses, set with deco-style pendant lights, completing its dramatic entry statement.

The large front bedroom, along with an original fireplace and ceiling rose, includes a discreetly located spiral stair case which leads to a light-filled loft space - an ideal home office or library retreat with reverse-cycle air-conditioning installed, a storage attic and dramatic elevated views across the roof tops and port harbour beyond.

A second bedroom, also with its own fireplace and ceiling fan, is bathed in dappled light from a large feature window.

The rear section of this extremely low-maintenance home is designed for relaxed and casual living with abundant natural light streaming-in from feature windows and the addition of sky-lights in the dining and kitchen areas.

Fitted with an original fire-place and air-conditioning, the living room has a cosy and welcoming ambiance, whilst the timber-clad kitchen, equipped with Westinghouse, five-burner gas stove-top oven, Miele dishwasher, Whirlpool fridge, double sink and abundant cupboard space, looks across to French doors that open to an elevated and timber-decked alfresco area. Also within this space is a discreetly positioned bathroom with large walk-in shower and vanity.

In an effort to effectively maximise every inch of the block, the property includes the addition of a free-standing, light-filled studio with kitchenette and ensuite bathroom. Private access is via the rear lane-way, remote controlled double-garage which also doubles as a laundry space with appropriate power and plumbing installed for a dryer and washer along with an existing sink. A clothes hanger is privately located at the rear courtyard.

Positioned to enjoy the best of both worlds, this quiet and enigmatic street is just metres from the action of Fremantle, including the bustling weekend markets, the Fremantle Arts Centre, the city port and an abundance of cafes, restaurants and bars.
