Floretta - Historisches Cottage mit Sauna

Welcome to Floretta, a family home in Fremantle, Western Australia.
Located high atop the Beaconsfield ridge overlooking the ocean and South Fremantle, Floretta is perfectly
situated to enjoy South Beach sunsets, the vibrant port city of Fremantle and the famous “Fremantle Doctor”
breeze on balmy summer afternoons.
This beautiful heritage listed Jarrah cottage was originally built in 1929 by a sailor who worked on HMAS
Kybra.
She was decommissioned in Fremantle in 1945 and later sold to a Singaporean company who renamed her
“Floretta”.
The old Frangipani tree in the back garden was planted before the cottage was built. The descendants of the
sailor who lived here have memories climbing and playing in its branches as children.
The cottage has been lovingly restored with an extension built to the rear, designed around the old Frangipani
tree that the owners children also love to climb and play in.
Floretta is the ideal retreat for couples or small families.
This luxurious home has been crafted with curated furniture, handmade ceramics from local artists and
artwork from around the world.
The cottage offers 2 comfy bedrooms adorned with soft natural linen.
1 Queen size bed and 1 King size bed with ample storage in the built in wardrobe.
The bathroom is lined with handmade Mexican tiles, fitted with a large freestanding bath, Tasmanian oak
vanity and brass hardware throughout.
The open plan living and dining area features a brand new kitchen at its heart with everything you need to
prepare a feast, including induction cook top and oven, double integrated fridge/freezers and a pantry for
provisions. Enjoy your meals at the reclaimed timber dining table or dine alfresco on the outside deck.
Relax in the living area on the leather sofa or retreat with a book in the large window seat overlooking the
garden.
The rear garden is tranquil and surrounded by trees, often hosting Kookaburras and Willy Wagtails. There is
a herb garden, outdoor nature shower (with hot water), and fire pit (available during the winter).
Unwind in our Canadian Cedar traditional Sauna followed by a refreshing cold shower under the lemon tree.
The front garden features Australian native plants and original verandah with cane seating.
