This treasure celebrates the iconic style that Fremantle architect Brian Klopper is acclaimed for. Cavernous barrel-vaulted ceilings, reclaimed red-clay brickwork, quarry-cut limestone, rich natural timbers, and wrought iron highlights define this home.
Stunning feature windows frame the lofty rooftop views. This is a rare classic in a unique location on The Rise. Smart architectural design has resulted in a highly efficient home that is not only secure and private but acoustically superior and light-filled.
Occupying the top level, the open-plan living, kitchen and dining is a breathtaking, light-infused space; rich jarrah floors, a magnificent double-height arched window and bifold doors that open onto a charming balcony maximise northern light. The balcony is private above the rooftops, paved in Klopper's signature terracotta tiles, and framed by a louvered pergola.
The kitchen features stainless steel benchtops and a solid granite island that offset honeyed cabinetry with an integrated fridge/freezer and pull-out pantry. Quality appliances include a Chef oven, 4-burner gas stove, and Bosch dishwasher.
Descend the stairs to the ground level where there are more spectacular barrel-vaulted ceilings, limestone walls, and terracotta floor tiles throughout. The two restful spacious bedrooms each include wardrobes, plantation shutters, double glazed windows, and plush open-pile carpet. Situated between the bedrooms is a generous bathroom and tub with additional separate WC.
A studio space or third bedroom includes a concealed European laundry and dual external access via sliding doors to the courtyard at one side and the drying court at the other.
Outside, built into the gently sloping site, a tranquil four-tiered cascading pond feeds into a serene courtyard with spiral brick paving, shade sail coverage, and limestone-bordered beds for herbs and flowering plants.
Other features include a lock-up double garage with a workshop space, split-system air-conditioning, plantation shutters in the bedrooms and bathroom, plenty of storage, and specialized thermal performance tin roofing.
Hop on the bike and arrive at Bather's or South Beach in less than 10 minutes, grab a coffee and pastry from artisan bakers along the way, and arrive at the heart of Fremantle almost instantly. Living on The Rise offers a truly magical lifestyle with ready access to public transport, parkland areas, loads of convenience options, endless fitness and yoga studios, and some of the State's best-rated dining, brewing & boutique bar venues.
