Set on one of North Adelaide's most prestigious terraces - and its most serene - this sandstone row cottage is one of a rare few to undergo a bold architectural rebirth; and from its quiet no-through pocket, it offers a unique blend of urban connection with tranquil parkland views.
Cleverly and openly transformed, this historic gem now delivers the unexpected: an upstairs second bedroom and equally chic new kitchen, laundry, and bathroom remodels (c.2021), all seamlessly weaving a bespoke modern edge into its c.1890 charm.
And bookended by solid stone party walls, you won't hear a soul either side of you - ideal for busy professionals or Airbnb guests here for Womad, the Fringe Festival, or purely for its iconic position.
It's where heritage meets an investor-savvy opportunity.
The leading lounge flows freely into the eat-in kitchen for marbled stone benchtops, custom joinery, contrasting tiled splashbacks, and complementary modern pendants, as the ambient lightwell – doubling as a central patio – frames the repositioned staircase.
Space-efficient storage is a blessing; every finishing touch and whitewashed finish throughout makes living a dream.
With terrazzo-inspired floor tiles, a luxe stone vanity top and an oversized shower, the chic bathroom is designed to share; feature-lit and practical, the adjacent laundry is a statement piece that deserves to be seen - and is - aglow against the rear bedroom.
And where the original staircase once lived, the ground floor primary suite retreats to more space, built-in robes, ceiling fan comfort, and a glazed exit providing discreet and secure gated access to rear lane parking.
Once a humble mezzanine, today the air-conditioned second bedroom is just as comfortable for guests, bunk beds, or as a stylish work-from-home sanctuary.
Every inch is one of a kind, and rightly so. A refined, low-maintenance lifestyle on the city's finest fringe, where you'll swap upkeep for outlooks that are as valuable as the postcode.
From koala-spotting to watching horses graze, you'll entertain the kids at the Glover (North) Playspace or the Wilderness playing fields, brunch along Melbourne Street, or hail the free City Connector bus that puts Adelaide Oval, universities, and the CBD firmly within reach.
