North-Facing Corner Riverside Gem
Walk to the river in moments, the beach in 15 and live a dream coastal lifestyle in a warm, friendly complex with this beautiful, bright apartment home.
This fantastic two bedroom apartment enjoys a desirable north-facing corner position on the second floor of The Brighton.
Right on the river in the Northbank precinct, this lovely complex has a relaxed coastal vibe and a friendly community of residents that spans professional couples, young families, downsizers and retirees. The 'Brighton Bells' host fun, informal monthly gatherings where residents can gather for a cocktail and a catch up. There is also an annual complex Christmas party.
Walk into the complex entry foyer and feel yourself relax. The Brighton has an airy, open Los Angeles-style feel, with mature palms and lush, internal tropical gardens that are beautifully looked after. At the far end is a communal fruit tree, herb and vegetable plot. Brighton residents also enjoy the use of a fantastic indoor heated pool with spa, a gym that overlooks pretty Doepel Street and an adjoining sauna and changeroom. Wake up and work out or swim before starting your day.
You will love living in this riverfront spot. Alongside the complex is easy access to waterfront parklands, jetty and river beach where locals take their dogs for a dip. Kids will love living near the lush lawns of Sorrell Park and playing by the river. Start your mornings with a run or walk along waterfront trails and pick up a coffee from the local coffee van. Stroll to Queen Victoria Street to meet friends at iconic local spots like The Bridge House, Brucetown, Piggy Food, Mrs Brown Bar, Mojo's or Autentici.
Beach lovers will love being a short distance from Port and Leighton Beaches, where renowned coastal eateries include COAST, Bib & Tucker, The Orange Box, Palette and MRKT Space. It's a short walk to the cappuccino strip of Fremantle and the George Street precinct of East Fremantle. Convenient and central, the home is minutes to North Fremantle Primary School, childcare, public transport, medical facilities and fitness amenities as well as community hubs like North Fremantle Social Farm.
Come home and feel yourself relax. The apartment entry flows into a beautiful open-plan kitchen, living and dining with two balconies. One balcony looks towards Fremantle and the bridge; the second overlooks the Northbank neighbourhood. Spot the much-loved local kookaburra, who nests in the mature palm tree on Doepel Street. Choose a balcony and sit out here enjoying a glass of bubbles with friends before walking down to dinner at one of the many restaurants and pubs within walking distance.
The tidy kitchen is tidy and very practical with plenty of benchtop space and burled cabinetry. There is wine storage, a gas cooktop, oven, Dishlex dishwasher and double bowl sink.
The north-facing main bedroom is lovely, with a recessed ceiling and double windows that overlook treed Doepel Street. Enjoy feeling like you're tucked amidst the treetops. The main bedroom has two big robes and ensuite access to the tidy and fully tiled bathroom with corner shower. The bathroom also has a separate laundry area with sink, bench and good-sized linen closet.
The second bedroom also overlooks the pretty neighbourhood and has a generously sized three-door robe. Push aside the balcony doors to cross-ventilate the home with cooling sea breezes in summer. With north-facing light to the living as well as both bedrooms, one of the lovely elements of this apartment is that it stays warm in winter. The apartment has split-system air-conditioning, fans in both bedrooms, a single car bay and garage storeroom.
