A window to the world is on offer in this architect-designed contemporary apartment.
Located in the beating heart of Fremantle, this three-bedroom home has been constructed to make
the most of some  eye-catching panoramas.

They include views over the Fremantle Fishing Boat Harbour, with Garden Island and Carnac Island in the distance.

Fans of convenient city living will also appreciate that the top-level apartment, one of three apartments in the
same building, is within easy walking distance of a range of pubs, restaurants, cafes, beaches and other community services/amenities.

A copper façade is an eye-catching entrée to local architect David Hartree’s vision.

Inside, it’s all about modern streamlined and clutter-free living as well as those views.

Large glass sliding doors in the “penthouse’s’’ main communal living zones deliver frontal views of the 
junction of three separate harbours including the Royal Perth Yacht Club Annexe (headquarters to the
 America’s Cup Challenge fleet) and the Fremantle Yacht Club.

Householders can take in a range of vessels including luxury yachts and fishing boats plying their trade.

Bedrooms and bathrooms to the rear look back over the city towards the war memorial at Monument Hill.

The opulent main bedroom ensuite offers upmarket fittings and fixtures as well as “selective’’ privacy and clever
 use of cabinetry.

One of the minor bedrooms features large built-in robes and a study zone while the other offers versatility and can be transformed into an office if required.

A generous open-plan kitchen has a marble bench-top as well as functional steel work bench-tops, European 
appliances and plenty of storage capacity.

Homeowners will have access to the cooling Fremantle Doctor on hot summer days or can switch to ducted air-conditioning when required.

Mack Hall Real Estate sales agent Mitch Thorson describes the apartment as “a real smoker’’.

“It does not get any better than this in Fremantle,’’ Mr Thorson says. “There’s not a lot of properties that combine the features that it has got. It’s in the middle of Fremantle, walking distance to everything, has great views of the harbour and the quality of the build is top shelf.’’

The sales agent says the property has attracted “moderate interest’’. “It will suit someone from the country 
who wants a city pad or an expatriate or business person who is in and out of Perth a lot.’’
