Last Listing description (August 2023)

This dress-circle street was the address of choice for the merchant barons of Fremantle in the gold boom era, and in 1904 the prominent businessman John Bateman commissioned a stately home in the Federation Queen Anne style. The original grandeur remains in this landmark residence rising from a corner block over two titles and its impressive architecture surrounded by wide shady verandas.

This property is open to view by appointment, please call Stefanie Dobro to arrange a time to view.

Inside, the gracious rooms and very high ceilings retain the timeless atmosphere, while beautiful new interventions have created seamless interiors of the highest quality. French doors everywhere flow to the verandas, gardens and pool, a southern wing offers luxurious independence, and the new kitchen and bathrooms are refined and elegant. This is simply one of Fremantle's finest historic homes.

The magnificent leadlight entry is typical of the outstanding embellishments that make this home an exceptional work of turn-of-the-century architecture and design. Splendid ceiling and wall detailing, remarkable marble fireplaces, glorious bay window, lovely light through grand double-hung windows, and more. The ample sense of scale and the indoor-outdoor flow makes it all airy and open, enhanced by fresh white interiors. A series of large, jarrah-floored rooms span the wide hallway, including bedrooms opening to the pool and a splendid living room by the northern verandah. It flows through to a brilliant new kitchen, with masses of white cabinetry and an expanse of Calcatta Velvet marble. Simply elegant finishes continue in the superb new bathroom, with an original domed ceiling above.

Facing the glass-walled pool and garden is an expansive additional wing: a large living room opening to the pool, another refined bathroom, and a bedroom with access to the rear courtyard. On the other side of the home, a flexible space for office, playroom or yoga room has its own entrances from the verandah and the carport, and a spiral staircase rises to a loft and balcony to glimpse the ocean. A series of French doors leads from the kitchen to a high-walled courtyard for outdoor dining by the elegant wall sculpture and pond.

The serene and inspiring environment of this home comes with the flexibility to enjoy the spaces in the way that suits your family, and to treasure a significant piece of Fremantle's history beautifully renewed.
