89 Solomon St, Fremantle WA 6160, Australia
Nestled only walking distance away from central Fremantle, this largely-original 4 bedroom 1 bathroom circa-1950s home enjoys a commanding position on the western side of a sought-after street and is finally looking for a new lease on life.
This quintessential “Freo” property has everything you could ever ask for – including history, location, character and opportunity. The foundations are solid and in need of modern renovations and extensions, but the residence is full of endless possibilities and is ready for you to maximise its breathtaking ocean views from the rear. Wide halls, soaring high ceilings, Jarrah floorboards, decorative ceiling roses, feature cornices and skirting boards are all commonplace throughout.
Before you even step foot inside though, a gated entrance leads you up to two massive elevated front platforms/decks where a lovely tree-lined inland vista can be absorbed as you are protected from the south-westerly breezes. Beyond a double-door entrance you will find a welcoming front lounge – or formal dining – room with double doors of its own, as well as a feature fireplace and more valley views.
The spacious front bedroom could be an option for a master with its ceiling fan, lush outlook to wake up to and room for a possible wardrobe, if need be. Another large bedroom with similar proportions and features is complemented by an adjacent bathroom that is brilliant in its simplicity and has a separate bath and shower. The charming kitchen and meals area plays host to double sinks, a classic New World Radiation gas cooktop/oven and leads through to a generous family room that is carpeted for comfort, enjoys stunning ocean views and sunsets over the Fremantle harbour and extends outdoors to a “blank canvas” of a backyard that could be absolutely anything.
A flexible fourth bedroom – or study – off the family room is also carpeted, as is the commodious rear “master” bedroom, comprising of a security shutters and a sublime Rottnest Island snapshot. Extras include a double storage cupboard upon entry, an alarm system, split-system air-conditioning to the rear main bedroom and security doors and screens.
This superb location allows easy access to all that bustling Fremantle has to offer, including the Wray Avenue shopping precinct, local cafes, restaurants, schools, Bathers Beach, the vibrant cappuccino strip, public transport, sprawling local parks, medical and sporting facilities, the harbour, bars, nightclubs, entertainment hotspots and The University of Notre Dame. Your chance to create a wonderful address lies here!
