Perched above the river in a quiet complex of only thirteen, life unfolds exactly as you’d expect: leafy, elevated, and totally tranquil. Modern updates have created serene spaces that flow out to a rear garden alfresco, or upstairs to views of ocean and island. Nestled within the communal grounds, you’ll also discover a secret residents’ pathway winding below to curving riverbank trails and waterfront dining – Dome Café, The Left Bank, Jetty Bar and more – against an idyllic backdrop of boats gently ambling along the water and the occasional pod of dolphins. This is a delightful place to live, central yet secluded, and only minutes from excellent local schools, parklands, shops and cafés, plus George Street’s village-like hub and of course, Freo.
A long driveway curves towards this solidly built 80s townhouse, tucked away from view with sunset and ocean vistas in the distance. A gated entrance reveals a little courtyard garden, while inside, a multi-purpose space can be anything: living area, home office, or playroom. Under-stair storage and split-system air add everyday practicality, as timber-look floors and white plantation shutters lend contemporary flair. The granite-topped kitchen is finely appointed with a double butler’s sink, Omega electric oven, Westinghouse electric cooktop, and LG dishwasher, while the laundry is adjacent with exterior access and a separate WC.
French doors from the dining open up to a gorgeous courtyard space: sheltered alfresco upon composite decking, barbecue nook, and aggregate concrete surrounds framed by a variety of trees – lime, lemon, frangipani, bougainvillea, and a Japanese spindle. Screened by greenery, it feels spacious yet private, with access through to the double lock-up garage.
Upstairs, timber-look floors continue to three bedrooms, all cooled by evaporative air-conditioning. The primary suite offers a cosy reading nook, walk-through robe and dual-vanity ensuite, while the remaining bedrooms feature built-in robes – one enjoying westerly views to Rottnest Island beyond. The hallway also includes a linen press, separate WC and a light-filled family bathroom with vanity and shower-over-bath. Double-glazing to most upstairs windows, solar power for energy efficiency and a double lock-up garage with a storeroom complete it all.
Tightly held, beautifully positioned and ready to enjoy in such a serene riverside pocket – idyllic living well and truly awaits.
