Fremantle WA 6160

Tucked behind its classic cottage faade and bull-nose verandah, 24 Chalmers Street is anything but predictable. Thoughtfully transformed from an original character home into a stylish, solar-passive retreat, it balances old-world charm with modern, low-maintenance living right on the Fremantle fringe.Inside, timber features and glossy baltic pine floors sit comfortably alongside polished concrete, stone benchtops and industrial accents. At the heart of the home, a north-facing kitchen and living area spills out to a private, leafy courtyard - a lovely spot for a quiet morning coffee, long lunches with friends or letting the kids and pets roam in the fully fenced yard. Expansive double-glazed windows draw in natural light while helping keep the home energy-efficient and comfortable year round.This is a home designed for sustainable, cost-effective living, with solar power and battery storage working alongside its solar-passive design to help keep running costs down.Accommodation is generous, with three well-sized bedrooms, two at the front under the original cottage roofline, and an elevated main suite at the rear of the home, creating a peaceful retreat with its own bathroom. A second modern bathroom services family and guests with ease.A sunken study/library/play area offers valuable extra space and flexibility, ideal for those working from home, a cosy reading nook or a dedicated kids' zone. Ceiling fans to all rooms, a wood fire and air-conditioning to the living area keep things comfortable in every season.Practicalities are well covered too, with a 6x3m lock-up garage, rear lane access to the backyard and shed, and a secure, fully fenced block. Families will also appreciate the sought-after school zoning, with the home falling within the John Curtin College of the Arts and East Fremantle Primary School catchments.If you've been looking for a Fremantle home that offers character, contemporary comfort and a clever use of space, this one deserves a spot at the top of your list.Highlights: Renovated character cottage blending heritage charm with modern finishes Solar power and battery storage for sustainable, cost-effective living Three large bedrooms, including elevated rear main suite Two stylish, modern bathrooms Central north-facing kitchen and living area with double-glazed windows Private, lush courtyard and fully fenced yard Sunken study/library/play area for extra flexibility Ceiling fans throughout, wood fire and AC to living 6x3m lock-up garage, rear lane access and shed In the John Curtin College of the Arts and East Fremantle Primary catchmentsRates & Local InformationWater Rates: $1470.29 (2024/25)City of Fremantle Council Rates: $2,835.36 (2025/26)Heritage: Municipal Inventory - Level 3Zoning: R25Primary School Catchment: East Fremantle Primary SchoolSecondary School Catchment: John Curtin College of the ArtsPLEASE NOTE: While every effort has been made to ensure the given information is correct at the time of listing, this information is provided for reference only and is subject to change.
