73 Opey Avenue, Hyde Park SA 5061

Auction Location: On Site

So cute, this circa 1890's single-fronted cottage is filled with personality and exemplifies all that we adore about living in the heart of Hyde Park. Literally just a few steps from the vibe of the popular King William Road precinct, this home just oozes character and charm. Situated in a shady tree-lined street this attached cottage presents with traditional façade, verandah and cottage garden. The impression of sleepy quaint on the outside belies the magic behind the bright yellow door.

Inside, traditional features including polished floorboards, high ceilings, archway, leadlight and fireplaces are complemented by the stunning addition of pressed metal, black paintwork and brass and copper finishes. Contemporary skylights work brilliantly in filling spaces with light. The good-sized hallway passes two double bedrooms, both with built in robes, and into the fabulous lounge room with French doors to the outside. The surprises continue into the kitchen and meals area, newly renovated. The feel is modern vintage, boasting exposed brick, clever black cabinetry, stone bench tops and the convenience of new appliances. The rustic pantry adds to the look. A family-sized bathroom is modern and is spacious enough to include a discreet laundry fitted out cleverly for optimising storage.

The interior has an edgy feel with a point of difference that we love. Entertaining and relaxing at home on the new deck under the rear verandah is simple and protected year-round by blinds and with a such a pretty outlook to the garden.

Locals understand all the fabulous reasons to live in this niche space that continued to buzz through lockdown with coffee available from early at Hustle or The Bakery and throughout the day at He Said She Said, Cibo, St Louis and so many more. There is the convenience of a local greengrocer, newsagent and Post Office. Be spoilt for choice with all the restaurants with outdoor and delivery eating options. Venture only a little further to Unley Road or enjoy the Goodwood vibe with the Capri Theatre and alternative shopping.

Exuding warmth and quirky personality, the home is perfect for singles, couples, downsizers or the young family. With so much new and done, simply move in and make it yours.
