Set just beneath the historic Artillery Barracks, 9/2 Burt Street is a rare offering—an original 1913 heritage cottage, beautifully restored and reimagined for contemporary living. One of just sixteen homes that once accommodated officers serving at the barracks (now home to the Army Museum), this residence is steeped in Fremantle history and full of timeless charm.
Tucked at the end of a row, the home enjoys added privacy with only one shared wall and open outlooks toward the working port. The classic front verandah is the perfect perch for catching the Fremantle sunsets, while a spacious rear courtyard provides a private escape for outdoor dining and entertaining. A separate storeroom and allocated carport add further practicality to the property.
Inside, original character features have been carefully retained—timber floors, high ceilings, and sash windows create a warm, inviting feel through the front of the home. Toward the rear, a modern renovation introduces polished concrete flooring and bi-fold doors that bring in natural light and connect seamlessly to the garden.
The kitchen is stylish and functional with quality finishes. The bathroom, which also houses a built-in laundry, has been tastefully updated with a clean, modern look. Both bedrooms are well-sized and full of character, ideal for singles, couples, or downsizers seeking something unique.
Positioned moments from both central Fremantle and East Fremantle's George Street, you're surrounded by cafés, parks, restaurants, and the coast—with public transport easily accessible. Whether it’s the history, the lifestyle, or the sunset views that capture your attention, this is a home that offers something truly special.
