17C Forrest Street, Fremantle WA 6160

Welcome to one of Fremantle's great neighbourhoods, where a mix of historic homes and new architecture surrounds the tall trees of the park. This two-storey contemporary home fits right in, offering all the ease of a smart layout for family life, plus earthy touches of limestone and steel for the Freo vibe. Extensive use of glass creates light-filled interiors with an inside-out feeling, and the really spacious open-plan stacks open to the alfresco and garden. A separate theatre room or second living adds to the flexibility, and a series of clever nooks for studying or hobbies means everyone has the space to do their thing. You'll love the lifestyle here: walk to George Street to meet friends for coffee or indulge in some boutique shopping, stroll to excellent local schools, and enjoy the river nearby. Recycled brick, limestone and steel add texture to the rendered exterior, and a laser-cut corten gate leads to a striking steel portico echoing the cranes of the port. Inside is an exposed limestone lobby, where a picture window frames a garden of soft native grasses and corten sculptures. Polished aggregate floors flow on ground level: powder room, family laundry, two study nooks, carpeted theatre room or second living, and an impressive timber and glass door sliding to the open-plan space. The generous white kitchen has masses of storage, fine appliances, and a long Caesarstone island with room for everyone. Tall glass brings the outside in and stacks open to covered outdoor dining with a treed view to the park, and lawn for the kids to play. An open stair of timber and steel floats up, with another flexible study space on the landing. A fitted walk-through robe and en-suite leads to the north-facing master suite, opening to a balcony for a quiet drink in the evening. There are three more bedrooms on this level, plus another bathroom with bath. It's all wonderfully functional, with the individuality of those warm design details that really elevate this family home by the park. 4 bedrooms 2.5 bathrooms 1 theatre room 2 cars Earthy touches of limestone, corten steel, recycled brick Lots of glass for openness and natural light Double-glazing for whisper-quiet interiors Easy family layout and indoor-outdoor flow Living stacks open to covered alfresco, lawn, reticulated gardens Theatre room or second living area Series of flexible spaces for study nooks/library/hobbies Smart polished aggregate floors, carpeted bedrooms North-facing master suite with balcony Attic storage with drop-down ladder Downstairs powder room, internal entry to double garage 508sqm block, chook pen, garden shed, room for pool Solar power, reverse cycle aircon, fans, outdoor shower Green outlooks: excellent location by Horrie Long Reserve Stroll to East Fremantle Primary, John Curtin College Walk to the river, arts centre, George St shopping Finer Details: Lot 63 on Deposited Plan 57080 Vol/Fol: 2693/118 Council Rates: $4,225.40 per annum (Approx.)
