5 Osborne Street, Hackney SA 5069

Tucked away in Hackney's hidden backstreets, Mocatta House emerges like the long-lost treasure it is, a grand C1880 return verandah residence, frozen in the midst of a full-scale reimagining. stretching its freestone structure on 1339sqm (approx).

Mocatta House has been stripped back to its bare, strong bones, some of its 11 main rooms more exposed than others, each as grand and light-filled as the next across a layout that could be reconfigured to your liking.

The current floorplan offers up to six bedrooms, three proposed bathrooms, a bevy of living zones and a sun-drunk rear conservatory with an eye on the oversized in-ground pool and extensive shedding.

For all of its grandeur and presence, Mocatta House enjoys peaceful anonymity rarely felt so close to Adelaide's pulsing East End, just a stroll from the Botanic Gardens, St Peter's College and the Linear Park trial. History has hardly looked so exciting.
