Warehouse Charm, Loft Luxury in the West End

Originally an 1880's warehouse near Bathers Beach, now an architectural creation of glass, timber and steel of New York Loft appeal, with an array of light-filled living and sleeping spaces, courtyards and terraces creating a secluded and completely flexible home in a quiet West End enclave close to everything.

From the street, steel doors open to a vine covered laneway. At the end, through a gate, you discover curves, angles and soaring walls of glass as the northern side of the home merges with the original heritage building.

Inside, you'll discover the ways this creative space can inspire your life and work: make it a family home with various entertaining areas and living spaces, work from home in a studio/office with its own entry or generate income from an independent apartment - this inner-city hideaway is full of possibilities.

With high glass atriums on two sides, the ground floor is flooded with natural light. A generous dining space, living area and spacious kitchen with pale she-oak cupboards, concrete bench tops and a seven-burner four-oven range. Sitting in the glass-walled breakfast nook, you feel as though you are in a tropical garden, serenaded by birdsong.

Three separate courtyards virtually bring the outside in, along with the soothing sound of water falling into the main courtyard’s fish pond and the second courtyard’s copper water feature creating a sense of ease and seclusion in this remarkably quiet and completely private inner-city home.

From your doorstep, you can stroll to the Fishing Boat Harbour, Bathers Beach, Esplanade Park, the train station, shops, cafes and restaurants.

The ground floor features an independent studio apartment or home office, with a kitchen, bathroom, walk-in storage and its own access from the garage.

Upstairs, there is much more to explore, including a large lounge area with an open gallery overlooking the glass-enclosed downstairs living area, as well as two double bedrooms, one with a wall of built-in robes, and a spacious bathroom with courtyard views.

As you continue exploring, you enter the original warehouse area featuring wide jarrah floorboards. The master suite, filled with northern light, has a feature wall exposing the original brickwork, a generous walk-in-robe and a private balcony. Floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the main courtyard lead you to the breathtaking ensuite bathroom with underfloor heating, a designer bath, tapware and rainwater shower.

Another set of jarrah stairs takes you to the top floor study/artist studio with 360-degree natural light. Then comes the big surprise – step out onto the expansive rooftop garden and entertaining space with views across the rooftops of old Fremantle. Imagine sunset drinks served from your own bar with bifold windows while relaxing in your bathtub!

Location, light, space, flexibility - this home has all these things, plus creative design qualities that come from blending old and new and making the most of the atmosphere unique to this historic West End enclave.
