15 Jean Street Hamilton Hill, 6163 WA

Your Beaconsfield Border Beauty

4 2 2

Is it your goal to live in Beaconsfield or South Fremantle but it's just out of your reach? Well then this is great news! 15 Jean Street is right on the Beaconsfield and South Fremantle borders, in walking distance to South Beach and could be your dream location, and in your grasp, with a Hamilton Hill address.

This quirky, indie style home has the vibe of a real sanctuary, offering a fabulous beachy lifestyle in an older very solid home. Built in the 60's, likely by market gardeners, this home started on a larger block, now subdivided, and the owners then surrounded their home with a limestone wall creating a north facing tranquil garden and sunny outdoor entertaining area that's been well used and enjoyed by the current owners. As soon as you walk into this space, you feel a sense of privacy and escape.

The deck has French doors leading to the open plan living area, and this is where the character of the home comes to life. The beautiful original jarrah floors lead you in to a space with an original old fireplace. This room can be used for a dining, easily seating 8, during summer and a lounge during winter to catch that winter warmth.

In the centre of the space is a horseshoe shaped kitchen, truly the heart of the home, with thick solid timber bench-tops and white cabinets. This is a very funky space and offers a lot in terms of entertaining as you are truly part of both living spaces. On the other side is a spacious sunken lounge that sends you straight into the midst of the garden with expansive ceiling to floor windows opening to the greenery.

Down the corridor you find the bedrooms; the first two include a large room that could be the master, with doors onto the rear deck, and a good sized room with north facing windows looking into the front garden. In between is a funky bathroom with plenty of storage, double sinks and a very quirky shower/bath with natural light from the skylight. The original third bedroom has a multiple of potential uses, as it's now an interconnecting room to an extension. You could add a wall to create another room - bedroom, study, nursery. It could be used as a bedroom with the extension being a parent's retreat. Or this could be the parents retreat, or even a second living space. This leads into the extension which could be a master as well. This also has a door opening to the rear garden and a small ensuite.

There are lots of options as to how you use the space, how you decide to live in it, but one thing is certain, it's a home, a retreat, a sanctuary and has a great vibe.

One thing that you will love is the gardens, from the verge to the back fence, the evidence of market garden owners is bountiful, as are the fruit trees! Starting from the verge are Olive trees including Kalamata olives - best ever eaten! There's also a lime and a mandarin though these are more recent plantings. Inside the front garden is a macadamia tree that delivers a harvest every year. Out the back you have a lemon, banana plants (perfect for banana bread) a mango that fruits beautifully - walk out and grab one for breakfast - a fig which already has fruit growing! An Avocado grows over the fence from next door and yes, this also is loaded with fruit. There's a peach tree as well. The front yard is sheltered under a huge jacaranda as well as the patio for summer living and the rear is surrounded by greenery. Both spaces are perfect for pets, kids and entertaining.

The home comes with solar panels reducing those power costs and a solar hot water system as well, with split systems in the living area and main bedroom and a gas point in the sunken lounge and shares a bore with the rear home.

As for lifestyle, well you are a very short stroll away from the newest brewery, Ripple Brewing, a hive for the neighbourhood and their dogs, come rain or shine. It's a 10min walk to Winterfold Primary school, 25mins walk to South Beach, 15mins walk to the South Fremantle Shops and 20mins to the South Fremantle cafe strip, the Grocer and the Chef or the Farmer's Market on the weekend. Jump in the car and be in Fremantle within 10minutes. There are easy bus routes nearby if you want to go in for a show, a night out, or if you need to catch the train to the city for work.

This is a home literally hugged by the garden, and a lifestyle your friend and family will envy and just by going to the other side of the street, it may be affordable as well. If you're looking for your first home to start a family in, looking for a home that has the potential of a beach lifestyle, looking for a sanctuary to retire to, or a home that has a very cool vibe set up for entertaining, then come and see if this is the one for you!
