Luxury on the water’s edge This East Fremantle home combines form and function for a growing family. By JANE EVANS THE view of the harbour, the ocean and river from this East Fremantle home is akin to that of a movie set – almost too beautiful to be real. The river looks so close you could touch it from the lounge room, and the panorama can never be built out. The owners of this magnificent architecturally designed home bought the 782sqm block 15 years ago. In 2004, Ashley Richards designed them a home to take full advantage of their elevated, northerly position. The interior of the home reflects the owners’ travel experiences – it is part English, Thai and
Australian-inspired. European oak flooring flows throughout the home. The sprawling residence has six bedrooms and three bathrooms with a separate wing for the owners’ three teenage sons. Upstairs comprises a lavish master bedroom and ensuite, two guest bedrooms, a bathroom and a study/adult retreat. The central living area features an open-plan galley kitchen with a walk-in pantry, stainless steel rangehood and appliances, and a long breakfast bar. Bi-fold doors open out to merge internal
living with a generous front terrace and lawn area where the harbour is the backdrop. The back yard features a terraced plunge pool, expansive lawn and entertaining area. There is also a double undercroft garage with a cellar. The owners said they designed the house to be highly functional. The position of this fine home is like no other in Perth. As the owner said, you could build another home just as nice, practically anywhere. “But you will be hard-pressed to find a more beautiful location,” she said. ■
