Nestled in the heart of Fremantle's vibrant ?West End? and within an historic 1908-built corner building that was formerly the Commercial Bank of Australia, this unique opportunity at 4/66 High Street provides you with two upper-level apartments that have their own separate entrances ? allowing for higher rental income ? but can be easily reconfigured into a family sized apartment, with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
The main residence (#4) has two internal doors to access Apartment #4A with and is graced by soaring high character ceilings of approximately four metres. It also boasts unique historic windows that wrap around the corner of the building, allowing the Fremantle Doctor to flow through, supplemented by three ceiling fans throughout an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living area.
Charming wooden floorboards add a solid original touch (prevalent within both apartments), with an original fireplace also warming the light and bright living space. The kitchen itself features a cleverly-concealed European-style laundry, double sinks, an eco-friendly Westinghouse electric cooktop, a Westinghouse under-bench oven, a stainless-steel range hood of the same brand and a sleek white Dishlex dishwasher, for good measure.
A second original fireplace can be found within the commodious master bedroom, alongside a ceiling fan, six doors of built-in wardrobes and a contemporary ensuite bathroom ? walk-in shower, toilet, vanity and all. The hallway is nice and spacious too, adding to the overall sense of comfort.
The second apartment has its own entry door at the top of the staircase, separate from the main residence. It also has a handy loft that can be used as a second bedroom or study, overlooking the welcoming open-plan living, meals and kitchen area down below.
The latter comprises of a ceiling fan, the loft staircase, a breakfast bar, tiled splashbacks, a G&C range hood, a Chef electric cooktop and a Chef under-bench oven. Gorgeous sash windows complement a stylishly-renovated two-way bathroom with a complete floor replacement, water-proofing, all new tiles, a shower (with a new shower screen), a sleek stone vanity, under-bench storage, a toilet and semi-ensuite access from the spacious bedroom ? complete with a fan and double-door access for separation from the living zone.
With potential comes lifestyle ? and you will absolutely fall in love with all the excitement and activity of cosmopolitan Fremantle at your doorstep. Everywhere you want to go is within walking distance, including other wonderful heritage buildings, galleries, bookshops, markets, cinemas, beautiful Bathers Beach, the Esplanade parklands, The University of Notre Dame, public transport, the eclectic shopping and cafes of High Street and a vast array of restaurants, cafes and bars. Experience Fremantle like never before, whilst benefitting from an astute investment at the very same time!
