38 South Street, Fremantle WA 6160

Down the ocean end of South Street on the South Freo border, a 1902 original has all the precious historic features: jarrah floors, high ceilings, cast iron decorative details, tuck-pointed brick, fireplaces, and large rooms within thick limestone walls. Then comes the new: an amazing gourmet kitchen where no expense has been spared to satisfy the most demanding chef, a bar opening to alfresco dining, and another shady alfresco area for lounging around the outdoor kitchen and firing up the pizza oven. It’s all made for entertaining and family gatherings, in a walkable location near the Fishing Boat Harbour, between South Beach and Fremantle centre.

A high limestone and iron wall and shady greenery create seclusion, and the traditional jarrah veranda leads to the central hall. Three generous, high-ceilinged bedrooms all have built-in storage, fireplaces with cast iron inserts, and a touch of glamour in the quality contemporary light fittings found throughout the home. The sense of space continues in the large living room, with a working fireplace and a beautiful marble surround that hints at the luxury to come. Step through to a bright contemporary space where walls of glass stack open to the north. Three automatic skylights add to the sense of openness, and the kitchen is spectacular: waterfall island in marble-effect stone, black inset sinks, Smeg induction cooktop, two Smeg wall ovens and a warming oven, mirror splashbacks, highest quality integrated Liebherr fridge/freezer, extensive touch-opening cabinetry, and sophisticated Blum storage systems. The bathroom is just as beautifully done, with a double vanity topped in marble.

Outdoor entertaining is as good as it gets, and the expansive alfresco is made for total comfort: automatic blinds, awning, overhead heating and ceiling fans. Another wall of glass stacks open to the bar/butler’s pantry, with lit cabinetry and a TV mounting so you can settle in outside to watch the game. There’s even more party space at the bottom of the garden, with a lounge area incorporating a brilliant outdoor kitchen in granite and stainless steel.

The practicalities have been well-considered too: reverse-cycle air-conditioning, solar power, automatic gates to the parking space, wifi security camera, and extensive storage space in the attic, accessed by remote control drop-down steps.

This sale and move must have been the most professional and smooth-flowing that we have experienced, having done 20 over the years.

The key to this feeling was Catherine, a charming and lovely young lady whose communication skills were without question the very best. Nothing was too much, and her concern for us and our needs was beyond reproach; we feel that she became one of our family, and we will miss her interaction and friendliness.

Catherine made every step of selling my property easy

Catherine and the team are very approachable and really make it feel like you’re on the same side! This family feel at White House have all the knowledge we needed regarding comparative sales, previously sold properties that were very similar to mine, and exact price guides. I can’t recommend Catherine enough, as she really does know the real estate market and made me feel very safe in the sale of the family home.

Thank you, Carlie!

From the moment I met Carlie, I knew she was the right agent for us. She’s professional, approachable, and truly knows the North Coogee market—because she lives there. She listened to our needs, kept us informed, and never pressured us. Her calm, honest approach made selling far less stressful. Her team was also fantastic. I’d recommend Carlie without hesitation—she turned a daunting process into a smooth and positive experience.

Highly recommended

Well handled from start to finish. Helped me with knowledgeable decisions to overcome a couple of small hurdles during the selling process. I had the option of using a previous agent, but I’m glad I switched and decided to trust Curtis. No doubt I made the right choice.
