UNDER OFFER - BY STEFANIE DOBRO, WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS!

Down a wide laneway, set right back from the street behind historic stone buildings, is a hidden treasure from the early 1890s. This double-fronted stone home has the classic presence of the era, with a bullnose veranda, ornate iron lacework, and original sash windows framing the central front door. It's the perfect combination of historic atmosphere, walkable urban location, and the seclusion of being quietly tucked away from the action. There is dedicated parking, but you can just walk everywhere: Bathers Beach, the train and central Fremantle, with Wray Avenue cafes and shopping steps away.

Frangipanis and lavender line the front veranda, with the two parking bays out front. There is a fresh simplicity to the interiors, with white walls and jarrah floors, and two spacious bedrooms span the central hall, both with built-in-robes. The home opens out to the dining and living running the width of the home, with lots of light from two skylights above. Step through to the kitchen, which is in keeping with the cottage character and design simplicity, featuring timber tops, white cabinetry and a central island. Alongside, another jarrah hallway leads to the laundry and separate toilet, and a cool contemporary bathroom with frameless glass shower.

There is reverse-cycle air-conditioning for all seasons, though you'll hardly need to use it in summer, as the stone walls are so thick it stays beautifully cool inside. Security is excellent, with decorative iron grilles to the windows, and security screen doors.

At the rear there is a long, high-walled courtyard space with built-in seating; very private, and just enough for the urban gardener to enjoy some greenery while keeping the home's low-maintenance advantages. There are many possibilities here: just move in and enjoy the Freo life, keep it as your secure city pad and travel, or invest with rental income in mind, in a location that never goes out of style.
