Greenslades House - A Slice of Local History

Located on the cusp of Hamilton Hill and South Fremantle, a lifestyle close to the coast awaits you here from within the walls of this gorgeous 3 bedroom, 1 bathroom century-old home.

Positioned on a generous elevated block, this beautifully preserved piece of history is privately hidden behind its picket fence and electronic gated driveway creating a secluded atmosphere. With jarrah floors, indoor-outdoor flow, and lush rolling gardens at the rear, this is an opportunity to enjoy original character with further development potential by taking advantage of its R60 zoning.

Step up to the front veranda and relish in the north facing elevation and the beautiful façade of this stone cottage, built from limestone quarried from the site in the 1920s by prominent local business merchant John Greenslade. Enter into the central hallway where all the character features of this historic home abound with beautiful jarrah flooring, high decorative ceilings, tall skirting boards, sash windows and leadlight doors.

Off the hallway are three large bedrooms, two north-facing and one with a charming fireplace. Bedroom three includes a delightful bay window to one side with a window seat. The spacious central living room, with working fireplace, is ideal for relaxing and unwinding in, leading through to the kitchen and dining area where you will find a gas cooktop, wall oven, and plenty of storage and bench space to prepare your favourite meals.

The adjoining laundry directly accesses the rear garden while the light filled and generously sized bathroom features a bath with separate shower and separate toilet.

New bi-fold doors seamlessly link the dining room to the private rear deck allowing for indoor/outdoor living and entertaining. Relish in picturesque sunset skies, glorious bird life and leafy views across to
Davilak Reserve and Manning Park. High fences add privacy to the big backyard where the children will love the freedom to run about in this lush green space, tend to the veges and pick fruit from the abundance of fruit trees when in season.

A large shed at the side includes power and water and makes a perfect workshop, man cave or bonus storage area with an additional small shed/ wood store attached. There’s plenty of off street parking behind the secure remote gated entry.

Enjoy this wonderful home on a large land holding as is, get creative and extend the home further or take advantage of its R60 zoning with potential to subdivide and create one or two rear blocks (STCA).

This landmark property is truly a rare find with a range of shopping and services all close at hand and in just ten minutes you can be in Fremantle or diving into the ocean at South Beach.
