14 Dalgety Street East Fremantle WA 6158
With its historic features intact, this is a fine example of the substantial residences built in in the Woodside precinct in the early 20th century. Grand bungalows on big blocks in leafy streets still create the restful, elegant character of this part of East Fremantle and this home and expansive grounds present a rare opportunity to take your place in the neighbourhood and make it your own.
Set back from the street with a large front garden and shady return verandah, the tuck-pointed brick exterior features a series of large leadlight windows, including curved windows with magpie and kookaburra motifs in the Australiana style of the era. The wide corridors and very generous rooms feature beautiful jarrah floors, high ceilings, decorative ceiling details, and jarrah architraves and skirtings which are in superb original condition and have never been painted. The lounge is a large, elegant room with north-facing windows and a log fire for winter nights, and the three bedrooms all share the spacious, restful atmosphere that makes this home feel so tranquil.
Overlooking the back garden, the rear of the home consists of a simply retro kitchen with gas range, a pleasant sitting room or dining space, a bathroom with clawfoot bath and marble-topped vanity, and a large laundry/utility room with good storage. There is opportunity here to update to your own taste and in your own time, but with no rush, as it is all well-kept and functional. The original outdoor loo in in fine working order, there is a huge garage and workshop, and the big back lawn is perfect for kids to play, surrounded by tall trees.
Private and quiet, but conveniently located with shopping, schools and central Fremantle all close by, this is a very desirable location and a real opportunity to secure a wonderful family home full of character and irreplaceable atmosphere.
