Terrace Home on the River

It takes just moments to walk to the river's edge, just metres away from this light, airy and beautiful North Fremantle terrace home. <br/><br/>This is a rare opportunity to buy one of the landmark terraces on Doepel Street - the Northbank precinct's best street. Boasting one of the premier locations in this line, this three bedroom, two bathroom home sits at the end of its row - meaning a semi-detached build, abundant natural light throughout and scope for easy cross-ventilation. <br/><br/>Open the windows and enjoy the cooling sea breezes in this enviable coastal location minutes to the beach. You are spoilt for choice when it comes to amenities, dining and entertainment. Walk to Queen Victoria Street with local hotspots including Mrs Brown Bar, Mojo's, Brucetown and Piggy Food Co. Or stroll over the bridge for a drink and a meal at Jetty, The Left Bank, Tradewinds Hotel, the historic Plympton Ward precinct or to the Fremantle cappuccino strip. Close to shops, public transport, fitness studios and medical facilities, this is a quiet yet convenient location where you could easily leave the car at home for days. <br/><br/>With two living areas and two bedroom wings, the home has good versatility for couples, empty nesters, downsizers, retirees, or small or starter families, with childcare, playgrounds and North Fremantle Primary School within walking distance. Being low-maintenance, it also suits those wanting a lock-up-and-leave or coastal city base. <br/><br/>The terrace has a smart, timeless brick elevation with privacy hedging. The heart of the home is the bright, airy open-plan kitchen, living and dining. High ceilings, a north-facing orientation and fresh white walls enhance the sense of space and light. <br/><br/>Push aside the sliding doors to create an indoor-outdoor living flow. The northern courtyard garden has been updated with poured limestone paving and timber screening and offers a lovely spot to sit with your coffee or enjoy relaxed alfresco dinners with friends. Lush bamboo adds depth while sweet-scented jasmine crawls up the eastern wall, where there is a perfect spot for a barbecue. The home's end position also affords scope for a tucked-away washing courtyard. <br/><br/>The galley-style kitchen is fresh and airy, with white stone benchtops, subway tile and good benchtop space. There is a Bosch gas burner, oven and dishwasher and outlook over the pretty, treed street. Off the kitchen is a tidy laundry and separate toilet. <br/><br/>To the middle floor is a lovely lounge room with balcony and aspect over the treed street. The house is the only one in its line to have a glimpse of the river and jetty, just metres away. Relax at the end of the day with a glass of wine. Around the corner are parklands with waterfront walking trails, playgrounds and a little local dog beach.
