This white timber cottage is timeless, and that design aesthetic is finely matched by a beautiful recent renovation. Natural light, white walls, jarrah and terrazzo floors, pristine bathrooms, a simply fine kitchen and a north-facing entertaining deck all create a serene atmosphere. It’s a captivating home in a very desirable pocket of Fremantle with sunset picnics at the Monument, a stroll downtown to the markets, the creative Blinco precinct around the corner and excellent local schools in walking distance.
Set behind a tall white picket fence with ornate iron lacework framing the return veranda, this is one of the prettiest historic cottages in Fremantle, in a lovely garden setting with paths winding through magnificent gumtrees. The home opens to the high ceilings of the central hallway, leading to a spacious air-conditioned bedroom with a wall of mirrored built-in-robes. The white-painted timber interior walls of the original home add texture, and the second bedroom, also with built-in-robes, features a lovely en-suite with a herringbone marble wall in the frameless glass shower.
Northern windows bring light to the long open-plan dining and kitchen, perfectly designed with waterfall Caesarstone island, handmade subway tiling, cool suspended lighting, white Shaker-style cabinetry, stainless steel Miele appliances and French doors to the deck. Step down to the polished concrete living space, where a wall of timber-framed glass faces north and opens to wonderful outdoor dining among the trees.
In the laundry zone, the charcoal grey cabinetry frames a pressed tin style splashback in keeping with the home’s origins, and fine herringbone tiling in blue is a feature of the beautiful bathroom. A third bedroom or ideal study at the rear has built-in storage and garden outlooks to the north and west. Beyond an immaculate patch of lawn, a cedar-clad shed/workshop offers flexible space, and there are abundant lemon, lime and cumquat trees in the garden. There’s parking inside the white picket fence, as well as an additional tandem parking space in the driveway.
