A Well Kept Secret

Walk home from the beach in ten minutes, then relax with friends over wine on the big wraparound balcony of this beautiful, calming home, in one of North Fremantle's most enviable locations. <br/><br/>Backing onto a small reserve and with just one residence between it and the river just metres away, this home boasts one of the suburb's most desirable spots, on the narrowest part of the North Fremantle peninsula between river and sea. <br/><br/>A friendly community, Binns Court is a quiet cul-de-sac with access to a beautiful park with playground. From here it is an easy ten minute stroll to the beach and a two minute walk to the river via Masson Mews, the waterfront walkway. <br/><br/>Enjoy the birdsong in the morning while having your coffee in the limestone-walled courtyard garden - or head out to one of the many cafes nearby. Within walking distance you will find The Black Truffle, MRKT Space Cafe, The Orange Box, Palette, Al Lupo Bar and Bib and Tucker at Leighton Beach, while the café, shopping and entertainment hub of Queen Victoria Street is just minutes away. <br/><br/>Built in 1993, this lovely two-storey brick house has been immaculately renovated and updated, with quality finishes and meticulous attention to detail. Honed stone floors, white plantation shutters, a new white kitchen and bathrooms and a timeless neutral palette add to the feeling of peace and calm in this classic home. <br/><br/>A leadlight entry opens onto the foyer with stone floors. These flow throughout the open-plan kitchen, dining and large, airy living, as well as the conservatory. This beautiful second living space has stunning beamed ceilings and an outlook that captures the trees beyond the garden walls. <br/><br/>The 370sqm block offers just enough garden for those who love to potter, with paved space for an outdoor dining setting and small lawn.<br/><br/>The renovated kitchen is a delight: contemporary white cabinets, engineered stone benchtops, Bosch dishwasher, Westinghouse oven and gas cooktop. Overlooking the garden and living spaces, this is an ideally appointed kitchen for entertainers. Conveniently off the kitchen is the laundry with plenty of storage and a toilet. The ground floor also encompasses a north-facing home office overlooking the street. <br/><br/>Upstairs are three light-filled, airy bedrooms with robes and pine floors. The main room has a walk-in robe and fully tiled modern ensuite with a generous shower. <br/><br/>The other two bedrooms are equally charming and serviced by another fully renovated bathroom. The first bedroom has been opened up to an adjoining bedroom to create a luxurious dressing room. Both secondary bedrooms open onto the home's huge wraparound balcony, with ocean glimpses and an outlook across the neighbourhood rooftops, a charming mix of industrial buildings including the iconic Dingo Flour Mill with pretty homes. Large enough for a lounge setting and dining table, the balcony is a wonderful place to relax. <br/><br/>Being so close to the ocean, the house can be easily cooled by the sea breezes, with split system air-conditioners as well. There is a double tandem carport with roller door and driveway parking space for two more cars.<br/><br/>With three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a home office, this home is ideal for a professional couple, downsizers, retirees, those who work from home or a young family. North Fremantle Primary School is nearby, as are local childcare and early learning centres. Binns Court is a friendly and welcoming community, with neighbours that look out for one another and a street Christmas party at the park every year.<br/><br/>Come make this beautiful home and location part of your story.<br/><br/>FEATURES:<br/>• Three or four upper floor bedrooms <br/>• Downstairs office<br/>• Renovated kitchen and bathrooms<br/>• Solar panels<br/><br/>Rates & Local Information:<br/>Water Rates: $1749.00 (2022/23)<br/>City of Fremantle Council Rates: $3529.77 (2022/23)<br/>Zoning: R25<br/>Primary School Catchment: North Fremantle Primary School<br/>Secondary School Catchment: John Curtin College of the Arts, Fremantle College, Shenton College & Melville Senior High School<br/><br/>For more information please contact Sarah Bourke on 0474 310 500.<br/><br/>*PLEASE NOTE while every effort has been made to ensure the given information is correct at the time of listing, this information is provided for reference only and is subject to change.
