This is a two storey Townhouse in the trendy "Primaries" complex. 200m from the heart of Fremantle in one direction, where the hustle and bustle of the cafes and restaurants and bars await you. The other direction you will find yourself in South Fremantle with so much choice for dining and cafes.
Upstairs you will find 2 large bedrooms (balcony to master bedroom) and 1 bathroom containing the laundry area. Large open plan downstairs kitchen, dining and lounge area plus a small powder room.
There are 2 free car bays - not that you will need a car living so close to the centre of Freo. There is ample public transport.
The mixed materials in this Townhouse tie the new and old architecture together seamlessly - the corrugated iron in the master bedroom with the jarrah staircase and recycled brick with the terracotta tiles.
Glass doors and windows fill the East and West walls which allows the breeze of the Freo Doctor to cool you down.
WARNING: This apartment IS NOT suitable for young children as the railing on the staircase is not enclosed. This is a safety issue and we would rather be safer than sorry.
Washing Machine and Dryer in upstairs bathroom and small clothes line in the back courtyard.
This property accommodates 4 people comfortably with 2 bedrooms & 1 bathroom. Facilities include:
Fully enclosed bathroom upstairs off Master bedroom with a second door coming in from the hall. Loft space above this (I do get asked is the bathroom enclosed and yes it is).

Great base to go and do all the tourist things that we needed to do. Fairly close to restaurants. Parking available which was handy. Clean rooms. I would stay here again.

Location was excellent, walking distance to everything. Townhouse was a great size for our family.
Great location for our stay. Walked to n fro the train station and Main Street. Hire car used to explore farther south n Swan Valley. Rained for a few days, apartment was warm n cosy - thanks for the umbrella a thoughtful inclusion.
Great instructions easy to find & follow. Gorgeous little townhouse, suited our needs, close to everything.Fitout a little tired, TV didn’t do Chanel 7 so couldn’t watch the Ashes. Need to rugby tackle the entrance gate to open/close & lock. Direct neighbour partying until 4am Saturday morning was infuriating.
We spent 3 nights in this wonderful apartment. Feels like a house. Very cute and cozy, well located, easy access to all you want to see in Fremantle.
Super easy communication with management.
This property suited us perfectly - we stayed 5 weeks and it really felt like home. Very well equipped and well located. The Primaries is a conversion of an old wool store and retained many of the features of its previous life. The bus stops right outside and cafes delis and bakers are all within easy walking distance. We hope to return again.

Thank you Sharon and Larissa for letting me stay in your wonderful townhouse. The best compliment I can make you is that I can’t wait to stay there again as soon as possible!👍👍
lovely location, very clean and nice fittings and fixtures, very homely - just what we wanted :)
The only downside was the noise of neighbours you can hear them at 0600 getting ready for work and high heels - don't expect asleep in.
A perfect home away from home. This is a 2BR house that’s within a wonderful quiet complex within an easy 3 minute walk to Fremantle markets. The free bus bus stop is a 60 second walk. Everything that you need is here, be it perfect linen and towels, iron, wonderful appliances, a couch you can fall asleep on, comfy beds, downstairs toilet, with upstairs bathroom (with second toilet). 50mb internet connection, large fridge freezer, perfect kitchen, small rear and front outdoor areas. The list goes on, there’s many a little touches that make this place perfect.
We loved staying at this apartment with our 3 children. It was clean and well stocked and walking distance to all of Fremantle’s attractions in one direction and South Beach and it’s vibrant cafe and shopping scene in the other. The property managers were great to deal with, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to friends.
Absolutely loved our stay here. Townhouse had everything we required for a comfortable stay and location was absolutely perfect. Would definitely stay again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the primaries. The apartment was exactly what we needed and in a great location too, within walking distance of the places we wanted to visit. re are some features we particularly liked which are unusual in our experience with VRBO rentals: the well appointed kitchen with everything needed to prepare and serve food, the two outdoor spaces for eating and drying clothes, having a powder room on the ground level in addition to the regular washroom, having two parking spots.
Property was great. Clean. All instructions good,
Would stay again.
Shower in the bath was a bit awkward. Better off just having a shower cubicle.

It was a pleasant stay.
The unit was fine, check in was easy with self locked keypad. Details was provided before the stay. Location is near to Fremantle market, good for travelers who would like to spend time around Fremantle.

Why they chose this property
This apartment is a fabulous location just out of the heart of Fremantle but a five-minute walk to the hustle and bustle of it all. You won’t need a car with the train station just a 20 min walk away. Close to a well- stocked supermarket in wray ave, you can walk get your morning paper coffee and a little bit of Fremantle local charm. Just a few minutes walk to Fremantle this is the perfect property to base yourself when exploring Perth
What makes this property unique
This is a large apartment my guest fall in love with! Part of the Primaries complex with lovely touch of Fremantle History! History The Primaries WA was originally built for Wilcox Mofflin as a wool and hide store c1923-25. In 1983 as the Swan Wool Auctions the local wool brokers sold to Primaries of WA for $327,00 (Fremantle Gazette 5/10/1983). In 1989 the wool store and headquarters of Primaries WA
