Stake your claim on "Elder Mews", a rare opportunity to live and breathe the cultural East End and March Fringe season with leisure and pleasure all a short walk away from an iconic C.1890s home base updated to spectacular effect on Frome Road. Claiming a prominent position while set back behind established gardens from Frome, this bluestone residence by Sir Thomas Elder is one of just 13 original row cottages remaining, offering you a slice of history and cosmopolitan lifestyle all in one, with all the renovations completed so you don't have to lift a finger.
Presenting with 3 large bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, open plan living, a dedicated study and your own off-street carpark - if you still need the car - everything is in place to deliver a comfortable home base on a neutral palette that fuses calming neutral contemporary tones and warm original features.
Two original bedrooms flank the classic bathroom, each including decorative fireplaces and high ceilings, with garden views framed by the first through large windows, while a dedicated office space with desk gives you somewhere to work from home when you're not bouncing around the plethora of nearby cafes. On the rear of the home, a sparkling new third bedroom is bathed in natural light and comes together over engineered timber floors, with an adjacent, gorgeous main bathroom complete with a luxe bathtub, floating vanity and large rain shower.
Gloriously updated to create a symbiosis with its modern city setting, a new open plan living space ensures a comfortable central space for year-round entertaining, with the stairs to the wine cellar on hand for those deserving of a special bottle. Your kitchen boasts chic large format tiles, sleek benchtops and splashbacks with strip lighting, tons of storage, brand new appliances including a Westinghouse 900mm gas cooktop and oven, with large timber-framed windows and glass sliding overlooking the private paved alfresco, fit for dining alfresco all summer long with the gentle buzz of Adelaide in the background. Where lifestyle meets home luxury, you'll struggle to meet this cleverly updated villa-style home in the best part of Adelaide's CBD.
