THE Chook has seen some stunning leadlight glass in its time, but this East Fremantle home might have the best yet.
The double front door is gorgeous, featuring a large art deco motif and frosted glass.
Coming a close second is the sliding glass doors in the lounge, which not only look beautiful, but let in plenty of natural light.
In fact, all the rooms in this four bedroom two bathroom home are full of character and style.
This circa 1940s house has everything from beautiful cornicing and period fireplaces to wood panelling and chandeliers.
The hub of the home is the open plan living/dining/kitchen area.
It has polished wooden floors, high ceilings and lovely views of the leafy trees in the back garden.
The kitchen is a character affair with polished wooden benchtops and quaint cupboards.
It’s still got all the mod cons, but fits in nicely with the rest of the decor.
There’s plenty of space for a lounge and dining setting, and from here you can walk out to the rear alfresco.
The sheltered patio looks onto the back garden, which has a lawn, shrubs and mature plants and trees.
Down the back is the property’s pièce de résistance – a separate games/studio with its own alfresco.
Couched in lush verdure, it’s a Margaret River-style bolthole and perfect for visiting guests or a lodger.
Or keep it for yourself as an artist’s studio or deluxe man cave.
The most stunning room is the dedicated lounge, which has a gorgeous wood feature wall, vintage fireplace and chandelier.
Off to the side is the formal dining room, which is ideal for family gatherings and entertaining.
All the bedrooms are spacious and inviting and have built-in robes.
There’s masses of space in this home and it includes two living areas, two dining areas, a study and a separate studio.
If that wasn’t enough, there’s a home office and a plush wine cellar.
There’s beautiful use of natural wood throughout, reflected in the period furniture, jarrah floorboards and kitchen benchtops.
Situated on a whopping 1062sqm block on Phillip Street, it’s close to the river, parks, sporting facilities, yacht clubs, and local schools including Richmond Primary and John Curtin College of the Arts.
This East Freo home has the best of both worlds – lots of style and heaps of space.
