Perched above a beautiful little streetscape with ocean glimpses, century-old character has evolved from stone and brick-quoins into light-filled spaces layered with history, texture and modern style. Perfectly placed within its coastal setting, this location has it all: farmers markets nearby, lush parklands, bus routes, beaches, South Freo and central Freo’s endless dining and shopping, minutes away.
Originally built c.1905 by a sea captain, tiered native gardens rise to a traditional bullnose veranda, framed by jacaranda. Inside is rich in history with jarrah floors, high ceilings, and sash windows spanning three generous bedrooms, each with custom-built robes and ceiling fans, plus a decorative fireplace to one.
Beyond, the new unfolds. Walls of glass reveal stone-walled courtyards on either side, one an ideal alfresco, and the other a north-facing nook, complete with jasmine cascading out of the old clawfoot bath. A ground-floor bathroom in cool concrete tones features a roman-style bath with rainshower, while the kitchen continues the grey aesthetic: stainless-steel appliances, integrated dishwasher, and euro-style laundry, with French doors to the garden.
Upstairs, another modern bathroom reflects the neutral palette as white-washed floors flow to a living retreat (or fourth bedroom) with lofty vaulted ceilings, a private ocean-view balcony, split-system air, and attic storage.
Rear laneway access with a pedestrian gate offers gated parking for 1-2 cars, with a storeroom and shed completing the exterior.
Capturing the essence of old Fremantle, with coastal character and modern touches woven throughout, this century-old beauty feels right at home in its idyllic Valley location.
