157 Hampton Road, South Fremantle, WA 6162

UNDER OFFER - BY STEF DOBRO, WHITE HOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS

Beyond the historic stone walls and screen of leafy greenery, a gracious century-old stunner unfolds in wondrous ways. Elegant period features and fresh updates marry within as the functional layout flows to the stunning master retreat at the rear with steps leading towards a magical, Mediterranean-inspired garden oasis. A short stroll away and you'll find yourself amongst South Terrace's bustling dining precinct or the soothing shores of South Beach, with all the convenience of local amenities nearby.

Beneath the traditional bullnose veranda, a timber door flanked by a pair of double-glazed casement windows opens up to thoughtfully renewed interiors. Two original bedrooms sit at the front of the home, each with built-in-robes, while one is graced with the fine features of a mantle fireplace - complete with a gas fire insert.

The decorative archway and high ceilings signal the era of this home, along with adornments of lovely picture rails, delicate ceiling roses, lead-light windows and Victorian-style cornices. The hallway leads to a light and bright open-plan layout with hybrid timber flooring, air-conditioning and a beautifully renovated kitchen with views of the gardens below. Designed for culinary convenience it has sleek bench tops, a free-standing island, ample cupboard space, and high-end Smeg appliances including a 900mm oven, gas stovetop and dishwasher. Close by is the concealed European laundry (with exterior access) and a tan-hued, modern family bathroom with a bath-tub.

The master bedroom at the rear is a real showstopper boasting its own ensuite (echoing the main bathroom's design), twin sliding, mirrored built-in-robes and a magnificent Palladian window that basks in sun-kissed rays and an endless view of greenery. You'd be forgiven for thinking you were immersed in a European vineyard somewhere with such a beautiful back garden; imagine lazy, long lunches beneath the pergola and grapevines or quiet weekends tending to the variety of plants and fruit trees including olive, almond and plum. The long stretch of lawn is perfect for children or pets with the privacy of leafy screening.

Another highlight of this home is the undercroft garage - a rarity in this pocket to securely park two cars - with a cellar and excellent storage. It even hosts a grape crushing vat for those inspired by the garden grapevines to make their own wine at home. Accessed via a spiral staircase near the kitchen or secure rear gate, a single roller door from Hampton Road conceals the garage entrance and driveway alongside the home.

If you want the full package, this is it; a charming character home made for modern living with easy walkability to all of South Freo's main attractions.
