With picture-perfect street appeal and a tree-lined locale that instantly charms, this double fronted bluestone cottage, c.1876, is an enduring classic.
Fresh whites, lofty ceilings, decorative fireplaces to four flexible main rooms, and neutral carpets throughout set an exciting precedent for something chic. A little vision, and sophistication is inevitable.
The layout is generous and considered, whether you opt for four bedrooms (or three and two living zones.) From the welcoming lounge room upon entry, bedrooms two and three provide comfortable double rooms, while the primary suite escapes to a private wing, complete with a separate vanity, robe, and functional ensuite.
Open plan living and dining extends to a large bay window for backyard views. Inside, the well-lit space entertains with an inbuilt cocktail bar, a sidestep to the laundry, basic second bathroom, and timber kitchen.
Outside, the paved and private courtyard will follow your alfresco design plans – subject to planning consent.
For those who dine out, the kitchen's robust slate floors, stainless dishwasher and newly tiled splashbacks probably won't matter; what will, for the busy professional, is the private home office tucked cleverly away at the rear – always front of mind, yet never in sight.
This is a home for the dreamer and the designer. Bring your architect or mood board, and the cottage that whispers: "I've always wanted to…" will finally exhale: "I am" - claiming one of North Adelaide's most vibrant, no-car-required pockets.
For Perryman's Bakery, the Piccadilly Cinema, the fresh Italian coffee and delicacies of newly opened Mercato, summer evenings on the Skydeck at Yakisan, or beyond the garden lights of Ruby Red Flamingo - lifestyle is all but taken care of.
As for the next page of this historic home's story, it's entirely yours.
