Last Listing description (February 2024)

Reputedly built in 1903 for the hairdresser of a WA Governor, this charming three bedroom cottage with a lush north facing garden and deck will make you feel right at home. Situated on a beautiful tree lined street with wide planted verges, this much-loved neighbourhood is brimming with character and is just minutes from Fremantle town centre, the river and the beach. This quaint Forrest St home is in an idyllic location with cafes and vintage shops just around the corner and an abundance of parks within walking distance.

Inside the house has a warm, tranquil setting with views out to gardens and cascading light from skylights creating a bright, open ambience. Wide jarrah floorboards and generous ceiling heights create a wonderful Fremantle cottage feel, capped off with a claw foot bath in the generous bathroom and an open fireplace in the living room. The scorched Jarrah floor boards are a memory of a fire occurring in the roof back in 1920.

The renovated cedar clad master bedroom with framed garden views is just another delight of this home. Fans in all three bedrooms and reverse cycle air conditioning in the living, dining, kitchen and second bedroom make this a comfortable home to enjoy all year round. There are ample parking options with three car spaces within the driveway and verge.

Sitting on the front porch you will have views out across the gardens to a magnificent Melaleuca tree abundant with birdlife and a verge planted out with flowering natives including mature Banksias and Gums. During spring time the verge and street is a mass of colourful everlastings. Grow your own herbs and vegetables within the produce sector of the garden filled with fruit trees and composting systems.

Situated in both the East Fremantle Primary and John Curtin catchment areas, this home is perfect for families or anyone seeking a home in the desirable Fremantle area.

It is evident this home has been loved by its owners, as soon as you walk through the front picket gate, this home will capture your heart.
