1 Martha Street, South Fremantle

Tucked away in a quiet little street within the highly sought after suburb of South Fremantle you'll find this little gem. A fresh, bright and very sweet yet solid 1948 cottage on a full 446sqm block, surrounded by heritage homes and mature trees. Our heroine sits in a shady, peaceful nook, waiting for you to make her your own.

This lovely lady has all the airs of living in a beachside town. With a North facing spacious deck off the front, underneath a retro patio for protection from the weather and the shade of the garden, this will be your favourite place to sit all year around, for that weekend morning coffee, the sunset wine and just a great place to soak up a bit of sun. You'll be able to count the people who walk past on one hand while you relax. The driveway has parking for two and room to add a gate, making the front garden a secure zone for kids and dogs as well.

You'll enter the home through the traditional central corridor, and straight away see the signs of mid century modern style - in high ceilings, decorative cornices and lustrous Jarrah floorboards. One either side are very large bedrooms, either could be the primary, both with built in robes and doors out onto the deck. The third bedroom is tucked around the corner - a smaller room but it fits a double bed and is large compared to some modern bedrooms. It look over the side of the garden and gets plenty of natural light.

The rear of the home is virtually all open plan living with exception of the bathroom. The dining can easily fit a table seating 6 and is adjacent to a tidy galley style kitchen. This overlooks the large living area and one of the quirks of the home - a huge pantry / linen/ storage nook! The large window and glass rear door are like natural art as they peer into the back garden, another leafy, gorgeously green zone.

The garden stays shady through summer and provides outdoor relief through the hot summer days. The grass is synthetic but as it is so canopied, it doesn't get hot and is enjoyable underfoot. The paved area is ample for outdoor dining and a BBQ zone, and behind the mature fig tree is another little nook - maybe for a kids cubby house, sandpit or wadding pool. There is another spot around the side of the house you could sneak away to as well, between the shed and the gate. Add a few large potted plans here and it would be a very pleasant spot with a bit of winter sun.

This home has plenty of options to make it your own. You can leave it as it is and just enjoy...but as its not Heritage listed, you can add and extend upwards and outwards. Add an ensuite bathroom, make a teen retreat upstairs, or a studio loft....its like a blank slate full of potential but sweet as it is!

However the real attraction of this lovely lady is the location. South Fremantle has so much to offer and from Martha, you are only 25 mins walk into the heart of Fremantle to enjoy all it vibrancy or you can stay local and take a stroll down to the terrace, where you'll find an assortment of restaurants, bars, breweries, pubs and cafes. Walk a little further and you're at the beautiful South Fremantle beaches - your dog will love you for moving here - and not only the beaches but the laid back culture - people picnicking on the grassy areas through the warmer months, early morning swims, bike rides in either direction, paddle-boarding is popular and even kite surfing on the right day. South Fremantle offers a charming, easy going and friendly village vibe that is very cool and very rare. A famous Martha once said “Your home should be a reflection of how you want to live right now, and for the next phase of your life.” Could this be yours? If you'd like to find out, come and see if this Martha could be the one you'd like to make your own.
