Enjoy walks along the river, spend your weekends at the beach and come home to a picture-perfect weatherboard cottage with nothing left to do but move in and relax.

Tucked behind a white picket fence on idyllic Thompson Road, this charming coastal character home offers heritage warmth combined with a beautiful modern renovation.

Believed to have been built in the early 1900s, the house has been thoughtfully restored and renovated over the years. The result is a picture-perfect cottage appealing to families, professional couples, downsizers, and empty nesters, featuring three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and inviting living and alfresco areas.

The location on Thompson Road is ideal, with weekends spent at Leighton and Port Beaches, and access to coastal dining hotspots such as Perla & Co, Bib & Tucker, Palette, and The Orange Box. The nearby Queen Victoria Street offers a village feel with iconic venues including Mrs Brown Bar, The Bridge House, Piggy Food, Autentici Pizza, and Ooh Coffee.

Community hubs like North Fremantle Social Farm, the North Freo Bowlo, yoga classes at Loop Yoga, and Rocky Bay Deli are within walking distance. Families will appreciate the proximity to playgrounds such as Gordon Dedman Reserve, North Fremantle Skate Park, and Gilbert Fraser Reserve, as well as North Fremantle Primary School and childcare. Public transport, Fremantle, and Cottesloe are minutes away, making this a quiet yet ultra-convenient location.

Entering through the white picket gate, the front veranda features beautiful new jarrah decking. The coloured glass entryway leads to a light-filled entry hall. Restored jarrah floors, panelled timber walls, and antique timber doors throughout add texture and charm to the interior.

At the front are two large original bedrooms, one with a fireplace and shelves. The hallway opens into a light-filled open-plan family room, dining, and kitchen area with north-facing light. A Rinnai gas fireplace in the family room provides warmth quickly, perfect for winter evenings.

The kitchen, the heart of the home, is designed for cooking and entertaining. It features soaring ceilings with an industrial pendant light, white-painted timber cabinetry, and stone benchtops. Appliances include a six-burner Ilve gas range and an LG dishwasher. High-quality Centor retractable fly screens are installed on the external doors to the kitchen and dining room, allowing for either flyscreen or blockout privacy blind options.

Bi-fold doors open the kitchen to the outdoors. The alfresco areas and gardens were renovated recently, with the standout feature being a beautiful plunge pool tiled with iridescent glass mosaics.

The back veranda wraps around the kitchen and dining area, providing generous entertaining space with new jarrah decking overlooking the treed neighbourhood. It is an ideal spot for summer evenings by the pool, barbecues, or long dinners with friends. Conveniently, a small boutique wine and liquor shop, Your Corner, is located next door.

The main suite is separated from the secondary bedrooms and is located at the back of the home overlooking the garden and pool. This oversized parents' retreat has soaring ceilings, a ceiling fan, and a walk-in robe. Double-glazed windows allow cooling sea breezes to flow through. The renovated modern ensuite features exposed tapware to a spacious double shower, reflecting North Fremantle's industrial heritage. It includes generous storage with a floating double timber vanity and a mirrored medicine cabinet.

The home also includes a combined laundry and family bathroom, renovated with a modern industrial theme. The back garden is laid with pet-resistant artificial turf and includes a freestanding powered workshop with a sink and jarrah workbench. This versatile space can serve as a shed, man cave, studio, or yoga room. An outdoor heated shower is available for washing off beach sand.

Additional features include single gated off-street car parking, a 10kW solar panel system, and recent installation of reverse-cycle air-conditioning. There is ample storage space underneath the house.
