Bowden has a habit of taking something with a past, giving it a sharp new edge, and letting it live a very good second life. Number 8 on Thirteenth Street fits the brief perfectly.
Behind a picture-perfect cottage frontage on one of Bowden's widest, quietest streets, this home delivers exactly what its postcode promises. Character where it counts. Modern comfort where it matters.
Polished hardwood floors, exposed brick, tall ceilings, spacious bedrooms and abundant natural light define the timeless c.1890 original section - now refreshed with custom stone, new carpet and updated window treatments.
Then the house shifts gears. The rear extension is all about ease and flow, grounded by blackbutt floors and a kitchen with quality appliances and a casual meals zone at its feet.
Bi-fold doors peel the back wall away and life spills outdoors. A big, undercover entertaining zone framed by landscaped gardens. A proper lawn that still feels rare this close to the city. It is low-maintenance, but never boring.
And the location? Quiet, wide and refreshingly local. One of Bowden's best-kept streets with easy parking and zero attitude. Parfitt Square sits right across the road with its BBQs and upgraded playground, while the cafes, breweries and buzz of the Bowden precinct are all an easy wander away. Schools, transport, North Adelaide shopping, it is all stitched in neatly.
Five minutes to Adelaide Oval. Eight to the Adelaide CBD. A short ride to the Torrens Riverbank. History intact. Lifestyle upgraded. Exactly how Bowden likes it.
