Last Listing description (December 2024)

This stunning heritage property represents an extraordinary opportunity to acquire a Fremantle landmark home on an elevated 1627sqm block with views to the Swan River and the original Fremantle Harbour Signal Station. You will forget you are in the City of Fremantle and get lost in the landscaped gardens and trees in your own private backyard.

Built in 1914, this classic Federation brick and tile bungalow was built as part of the Artillery Barracks and Signal Station. Designed to accommodate officers and their families. Today, Rifle Cottage is a stunning, spacious family home for modern living, with an beautiful renovation that blends yesteryear charm with modern conveniences.

Set high on a hill, the house sits proudly back from the street on its elevated block. Offering a relaxed lifestyle in a riverside enclave, this is a dream location. Walk to the river and start your mornings with a run along the waterfront. Stroll to George Street to pick up your morning coffee from Ethos or Hubbles Yard. In the evenings, invite friends for a wine on the veranda before strolling to dinner at nearby local favourites like La Lune, Salsa Rossa, Jetty Bar & Eats or The Left Bank, or into the heart of the Fremantle cappuccino strip. Minutes to beaches, shopping, fitness facilities and conveniences, this is a fantastic locale and an ideal home for families, just moments to John Curtin College of the Arts, East Fremantle Primary School, playgrounds and parks.

The single level floorplan also suits retirees after a home where the whole family will love to gather. You will dream of long table Christmas lunches on the wraparound verandas while the kids will delight in exploring the rambling gardens. Previously opened to the public as part of Open Gardens Australia, the traditional gardens feature a huge jacaranda, Apple Blossom hibiscus, a Rottnest Island pine, heritage roses and a kitchen garden. There are storage sheds, a potting area and single garage, with gated parking space for many more cars, and space to add an ancillary dwelling or granny flat (STCA).

Set back from the street, the home makes a lovely first impression. Wraparound verandas give way to an original entry door with leadlight windows, revealing a grand entry where oiled jarrah floorboards and French-washed walls and doors finished in Porter's Paints complement the classic character.

The hallway flows into the beautiful central family room with a magnificent fireplace and doors to the southern wraparound veranda, with plenty of space for alfresco dining. Nearby is the gracious dining room with fireplace, an evocative room that calls for long dinners with friends and family board game nights.

The north-facing kitchen is another highlight. Light-filled, large, warm and welcoming, it has been renovated with Shaker-style joinery and engineered Corian benchtops. A huge Ilve range with gas burners will thrill chefs. Prepare dinner while the kids do their homework at the kitchen table in this inviting space.

Two huge bedrooms flank the front entry, one with a marble fireplace, the other with a huge built-in robe. French doors throughout the home open the rooms up to the verandas. Push aside the doors to bring in the cooling sea breezes in summer and enjoy an indoor-outdoor living flow.

The main suite is a delight. Capitalising on the northern light, there is generous storage with both a walk-in and built-in robe, and an immaculate ensuite with glass-fronted shower. There is also a fourth bedroom at the back, with a gorgeous view of the garden.

The house has a spacious laundry where you won't mind folding and fluffing, with a breathtaking garden view, plenty of storage and benchtop space, and a walk in storeroom. A good-sized family bathroom includes a freestanding bath and shower, with separate powder. The home has a solar panel system, reverse-cycle air-conditioning and substantial storage, with a pull-down ladder to a large attic.

If you are dreaming of a classic Fremantle home in an incredible location, this very special home could be the one.
