Once in a Generation Riverfront Opportunity
ABSOLUTELY ALL OFFERS TO BE PRESENTED BY 5PM ON 20TH AUGUST 2026 (UNLESS SOLD PRIOR).
Live in a peaceful waterfront location and enjoy spectacular river views every day with this classic original home in one of Perth's best blue chip locations.
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a solid, original home on a large riverfront block on Bicton's most prestigious riverfront address, Blackwall Reach Parade.
On 797sqm of prime riverfront land, with just metres between you and the river, this incredible property enjoys an elevated position with unbeatable views of the water. Nestled into the limestone cliff, high above street level, you will be hard-pressed to find a more beautiful view than this. The home has a premier position on the cusp of the riverbend - meaning even more expansive, sweeping views than those from neighbouring homes.
Blackwall Reach Parade homes rarely go to market - and for good reason. Number 46 is one of the originals built in this classic waterfront location. A solidly built brick, timber and tile home from 1974, this warm and welcoming riverside residence has been deeply loved by the same family for 47 years and is now awaiting its next chapter. With four bedrooms, two bathrooms and ample living space, this is an ideal family home with a wonderful feel and a peaceful location that offers an incredible riverfront lifestyle.
If modern life feels like a little too much hustle and bustle, here you will find yourself truly slowing down. Wake up and start your days with a walk or run along the river. Relax on the balcony with friends and family, watching boats and dolphins.
Walk the kids down to the Bicton Baths jetty for a swim or to Blackwall Reach Reserve for a fossick in the rockpools. Stroll to weekend breakfasts at East Fremantle Yacht Club or meet friends for lunch at Walters River CafΓ©. Enjoy the ease of community events on your doorstep at Bicton Quarantine Park or Point Walter Reserve. Take the kids for a bushwalk or cycle through Blackwall Reach Reserve and end your afternoons with laps at Bicton Baths. Sporting facilities and clubs on your doorstep include tennis, golf, BMX, swimming, water polo, cricket and sailing, while you are only minutes to shops, cafΓ© precincts, schools and the heart of Fremantle.
The heart of the home lies in its warm, welcoming upper floor open-plan kitchen, living and dining. This huge space opens onto a spacious front balcony as well as a fantastic covered, protected alfresco entertaining area out the back, giving scope for outdoor entertaining no matter the weather. The patio flows into a paved courtyard garden nestled into the cliff face.
Irreplaceable jarrah ceiling beams run throughout the upper floor, adding to the warm and welcoming feel. Enjoy daily life with idyllic views of the river from every turn. You will daydream of Christmases and long lunches on the balcony enjoying the sea breezes as the kids play out the back before everyone wanders down to the river beach.
The kitchen is timeless and of beautiful quality, with solid timber cabinets paired with West Australian marble benchtops. There is a Bosch oven, Blanco induction cooktop and filtered water. Washing up is a pleasure when you can gaze at the river from the sink. Even the stairwell showcases the breathtaking river views. Nearby is a walk-in second pantry or storeroom, as well as convenient access to the laundry.
The main suite is spacious and inviting, with beautiful northern light and built-in dressing table or home office desk nook. Beautiful Japanese-style sliding screens reveal a large dressing room with built-in cabinetry. The ensuite is original, yet very tidy, with fully tiled walls and exposed beams.
On the lower level is yet another space for outdoor living, with a paved, covered front patio. The lower floor encompasses the secondary bedrooms, with two front bedrooms, both with high ceilings, robes and water views. A third and larger bedroom, ideal for use as a second lounge, studio or playroom, captures the north-facing light. A separate toilet and large bathroom with bath services these bedrooms.
The house has a large double garage with powered workshop and paved parking space on the verge. Storage is generous throughout, with plenty of storage space in the garage, two garage storerooms and a large storeroom to the back garden, which has lockable, external side access through the alfresco.
Idyllic, energising and on one of the best riverfront streets in Perth, this location is a dream. Make this special property the setting of your next chapter.
