Some homes are so extraordinary, they catalyse enormous change in the life of the new owner. Large, luxurious, and leaving you wanting for nothing, this is undoubtedly one of those rare finds.

All the elements are in place: a generous floor plan with inspiring Indian Ocean views, breezy indoor-outdoor living spaces, dazzling entertaining areas and state-of-the-art features throughout.

Then there’s the location: an award-winning development, on the front row of the South Beach coastline. It’s so close to the water, you hear the sound of the waves lapping. The sand can be between your toes within minutes of waking up. South Fremantle’s lively restaurant strip is a 700m stroll and the heart of Fremantle is less than 3km up the road.

Better yet, those views can never be built out.

The generous 169sqm interior boasts sprawling open plan living spaces at its heart, with floor-to-ceiling windows that allow the glittering ocean view to come to the fore. Balconies are located on the east and west sides on a hot day, you can open everything up to allow the cooling ocean breeze to circulate. Alternatively, both balconies can be fully enclosed by shutters, to provide shelter from the wind or sun when required.

The dazzling kitchen is even more than you would expect from a home of this calibre. The social layout is set around a huge stone island, and the list of high-spec features includes pristine two-pac cabinetry, underslung sinks, aqua filters, and appliance by Miele and Maytag.

Similarly, the king-size master suite exceeds all expectation, with a dreamy walk-in robe and stunning ensuite bathroom. The two additional bedrooms are of generous queen size, with built-in robes and a second bathroom close by. There’s also a separate study, laundry and a spacious powder room.

Designed by two of Australia’s leading architectural firms (Architectus and Cameron Chisholm Nicol), the apartment is part of the much-admired ‘Islands’ development, named Best High Rise Apartment Building’ by the Master Builders Association in 2010. Its resort-like grounds encompass 4,500sqm of landscaped gardens, as well as facilities including a lap pool, sauna, fully equipped gym, and sun deck.
