When the city skyline guides you home to this c.1890 Victorian villa, tucked within a quaint cul-de-sac and framed by the tranquil Brougham Gardens, you'll know you've found something special.
This is a home that makes a memorable impression on the city dweller, entertainer, or retired executive drawn to North Adelaide's village appeal, walkability, and café culture, yet who values calm when the gate closes behind them.
Beyond the picket fence and irrigated cottage gardens, the Torrens titled villa presents a timeless vignette of charm, light, and cohesive evolution – a true lifestyle keepsake.
Its clever additions – without actually adding on – are four view-spilling bay windows, featured in the captivating main lounge, two leading bedrooms, and the casual dining room that suns itself over the pool and backyard.
Of the three elegant bedrooms, two feature full-height joinery, and each bring their own mood: golden winter light, ornate fireplaces, or the flexibility to transform into a home office or second living space.
Bathed in morning sun, the sleek JAG kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops and a walk-in pantry shares its rich parquetry floor space with the bay-windowed dining nook - both taking in sparkling pool views, perfect for dinner prep and supervision.
Underfloor-heated terrazzo-look flooring, a discreet Euro laundry, and the original French doors repurposed from the living room set the chic foundations for the contrasting new bathroom, paired with an equally stylish powder room conveniently located for pool users.
Outdoors, the lush, private backyard sets the scene for open-air alfresco dining - in the lap of a property deeply embedded in North Adelaide's past. From the pool to the 15-amp powered utility shed beside the endearing original laundry-turned-workshop, its past lives on in so many ways.
With so much to gain, there's even more to get out for on foot. Brougham's sweeping garden belt, concerts at Adelaide Oval, brunch, lunch and dinner along O'Connell, even a leisurely stroll into the CBD.
What an heirloom. What an address. Follow the city lights…
