Freo classic

THIS historic Fremantle home has an absolutely stunning open plan.

You ascend a small flight of stairs and emerge in a cavernous but highly stylish living/dining/kitchen area with exposed wooden beams, polished jarrah floors, huge stone fireplace from Citizen Kane, cathedral-like ceiling, and a wrought iron spiral staircase in the background.

Completing the jaw-dropping scene is a fantastic selection of bright artworks on the walls.

I don’t know who polished the jarrah floors, but they deserve a raise, as they are so glossy you can almost see your face in them.

This open plan really is a classic and one of the best the Chook has ever seen.

Originally a warehouse built in the late 1800s, this property has been transformed into a remarkable three bedroom three bathroom two-storey residence.

Tucked away at the side of the open plan is a gorgeous kitchen. It’s got all the mod cons but has been fitted out with a retro vibe, including a 1950s-style fridge, kitsch oven and pretty splashback.

At the other end of the open plan is a huge conservatory with a partial glass roof, enhancing the sense of space and the feeling of being outside.

With its large floors tiles and terracotta colour scheme, it has the feel of a courtyard in a Mediterranean villa.

It’s a great area to entertain family and friends with lots of space.

The Herald’s favourite spot might just be the upper level.

The spiral staircase – it always feels a bit of an adventure going up one – leads to a lounge bar with kitchenette and TV.

From here you can access the property’s jewel in the crown – a rooftop terrace with glass roof and blind, meaning it could be used all-year round.

The terrace has amazing views of the architecture in the West End and the towering Norfolk Pines in the distance.

The fresh and spacious bedrooms continue the same high standard with the ensuite main boasting a huge walk-in robe. The second bedroom is also ensuite and has built-in robes.

Situated on Henry Street in Freo’s historic West End, all the delights of the port city are at your fingertips, and the property comes with two dedicated car bays and secure visitor parking.

It’s private too with only one other property sharing the building.

This is a great opportunity to own a little slice of history in Freo’s West End.
