30 Grove Street, Unley Park SA 5061

Rarely does a home of this statue enter the market place. A once in a lifetime opportunity to own a unique piece of South Australian history.

Built in 1879 this 2 storey mansion is set on some 4147sqm of botanic garden-like grounds, and a history spanning 3 centuries, with only 6 owners, this spectacular example of Victorian architecture has been meticulously restored and improved over the years and reflects the current owner's love for a house which they call home.
