Live the good life in this eco-friendly home.

Have the best of both worlds; be just moments away from the buzz and excitement of Fremantle and South Beach, then retreat to this hidden green oasis in Hilton.

Surrounded by towering Jacaranda trees, this rear home has been carefully designed with environmental considerations and is at the forefront of sustainable living. The red brick home is solar passive and was designed to maximise sun in winter and airflow in summer, with the home comfortably bright, light and airy all year round. Better yet, it's friendly on the wallet - the solar panels covering most energy requirements with the potential to receive credits in summer, not bills.

This single-storey home is an entertainer's dream and is made for socialising in all seasons. The large open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area extends out towards the garden via floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors. You and your guests will love the Tuscan ambience created by the grape vines draping over the pergola; acting as a natural shadecloth in summer. Adding to the blissful outdoor aromas are the garden's lush fruit trees, native and edible plants – just another way this house encourages self-sufficiency.

Inside, the communal living space appears more extensive thanks to its high ceilings, abundant natural lighting and charcoal floor tiles throughout. The centrepiece is the kitchen's sweeping breakfast bar with chic, industrial-inspired lighting above. The kitchen's dark wood cabinetry adds warmth to the space, complimented by the striking feature-tiled splashback. Stainless steel appliances include an under bench oven, gas cooktop, a rangehood and a dishwasher.

The three-bedroom home features two sizable minor bedrooms with built-in robes, with the master bedroom featuring a spacious walk-through wardrobe and ensuite. There is potential for a fourth bedroom as the sizable study features a Murphy bed, a convenient multifunctional room for hosting visiting friends or relatives. Adding to the home's versatility factor is the double garage, which can also be used for a children's playroom as it is well insulated and comfortable to stay in at all hours.

Both bathrooms are spacious and similar in design; featuring gorgeous mosaic-tiled splashbacks and large hobless showers. The ensuite bathroom is wheelchair accessible. The family bathroom features a bathtub, perfect for unwinding after a hectic day. The WC’s and garden tap are connected to the home's rainwater tanks, another sustainable and economic feature of this impressive home.

Moments from South Beach and the eclectic streets of Fremantle, and a short walk to the highly-regarded Hilton Primary School, this home is a retreat you'll relish coming home to every day. Contact Rebekah Vos-Jamieson to register your interest in this unique home today, on 0428 175 643.
