Up on the ridge with a wide open ocean outlook, this Freo classic has been renewed for modern living, blending treasured historic elements with contemporary design. This substantial home has a commanding position above the street, offering long landscape views to the east, as well as those blue ocean vistas to the west. Built in solid brick on pillowstone foundations, with jarrah floors and leadlight features, the home now includes two new bathrooms, new kitchen and laundry, two living areas, an undercroft workshop, and a flexible space. The location is unbeatable, walking distance from town in the port city’s dress circle street.

Through the corten steel gate, step up through terraced native gardens to the terrazzo veranda. A large elevated terrace is an outstanding space for outdoor dining, and perfect for early morning coffee as the sun rises in the long view. Inside, you see the ocean right in front of you as soon as you step in the door. Three large rooms spanning the jarrah corridor all have the original large leadlight windows – one with a fireplace is a welcoming living room, and the other two rooms both have built-in robes. Beyond a wall of storage is a third spacious bedroom, and a vast new black and white bathroom with floating timber vanity and freestanding bath. Even the bathroom features the striking deco ceiling detailing which is such a feature of this home, and different in every room.

Embracing the ocean and island views, the sleek new kitchen features an induction cooktop and extensive cabinetry. What a place to cook and gather, looking out to the masts of the Fishing Boat Harbour and the sailing club and over to Rottnest. The rear family room has the same brilliant view, and off the kitchen is the pristine laundry and another chic new bathroom. Step down to a cool concrete paved deck and garden outside: perfect lawn, hedging, olive trees and a loaded fig tree. Under the house is a large cellar that was used for storing the veggies and preserves from the original kitchen garden, and is ideal for a workshop and storage space. Out front are two separate garages, one with an internal lockable space for whatever you need!

All the work has been done to bring new life to this fabulous location, so you can just move in, make yourself at home, and soak up the view.

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.
