161 South Tce, South Fremantle WA 6162

Brick and iron federation bungalow built in 1936 in a desirable location on the doorstep of some of the best cafes, bars, and restaurants in South Fremantle. This residence has been modernised for comfort and convenience, with the heritage of the home visible in period features such as high ceilings, jarrah floorboards and decorative fireplaces. The home most likely had a renovation in the 1950s which is to thank for gorgeous Art Deco additions such as decorative ceilings, ceiling roses and terrazzo tile flooring that make this property a real standout.

Entering through the front gate, a limestone and timber wall and Eucalyptus trees create a screen of privacy so you can sit on the sweet tiled front porch and enjoy the native courtyard garden. At the end of the wide entrance hallway, a chic living room provides a lovely spot to relax with a book or gather with the family. Built in floor-to-ceiling timber shelves frame a central gas fireplace creating a cosy atmosphere. The living area leads through to a bright, well-equipped kitchen with a Miele dishwasher, gas cooktops, and a timber breakfast bar for causal meals. The kitchen and adjacent dining area feature terrazzo tile flooring with a cool rust-coloured retro pattern.

To the rear of the home accordion glass doors open out to a wide timber decked verandah with downlights so you can enjoy indoor/ outdoor living in the warmer months. This elevated alfresco area looks out over a lush back yard with a green lawn, easy care garden beds and established trees, a lovely spot to relax or enjoy an alfresco meal with friends. To the rear of the property, a double garage has roller doors that open onto South Street. There is a workshop at the back of the garage which could be turned into another parking space if desired.
