THIS Fremantle home is a federation brick-and-iron classic
It’s got loads of lovely period features and a first floor extension with gorgeous ocean views.
Everything has been done with a sense of taste and style and there are no letdowns in this three bedroom Queen Anne-style abode.
The Chook normally doesn’t start a home review on the first floor, but this is a cracker with lovely wooden beams crisscrossing the ceiling and French doors maximising those ocean vistas.
It feels like a chic bolthole to enjoy a glass of wine in summer as the ‘doctor’ gently wafts inside.
Come sundown, open the French doors and head out to the balcony, where you can enjoy that lovely view.
The roof means this balcony could be an all-year spot and gives the home an excellent indoor-outdoor flow.
Another highlight is the ground floor lounge, which has a stunning period fireplace, picture rail and high ceiling.
It’s a classy room with the stately feel enhanced by the polished Jarrah floorboards.
Sometimes these older character homes have poky rooms, but no problems here with a big kitchen featuring tons of cupboards, a double sink and space for a large family breakfast table.
There’s pleasant views of the leafy back garden and it’s a relaxing place to start your day.
The back garden is another delight, and from here you can really appreciate that subtle first floor extension.
There’s a huge garage/shed (complete with mechanic’s pit), a decent lawn and plenty of established trees and plants.
The home includes additional off-street parking, rear access via Carnac Street, jarrah floors, original tall windows, and has been recently rewired, re-roofed and fitted with new gutters.
Situated on a 498sm block on Attfield Street, you are super close to all the cafes, bars and restaurants on South Terrace and Wray Avenue, and South Beach and the Freo CBD are not far away. If you’re after that classic Freo look, this home is worth checking out.
