Radiant from every angle, this C.1880s symmetrical cottage has been expertly rewarded with a full-scale 2025 transformation and addition, forging a lifestyle design of modern finesse on the doorstep of Goodwood's thriving village fringe.
Light drifts through every room, feature skylights punctuate high square-set ceilings, and the warmth of pale timber floors, custom joinery, and neutral tiling reinforce the home's endearing yet contemporary new identity.
The result? A standout entertainer: practical where it counts with cutting edge designer accents, geared for those who crave Goodwood's coveted city-fringe buzz without sacrificing the privilege of genuine family breathing space.
Framed by new arrival fencing, aggregate concrete perimeters, verandah tiling and simple yet effective landscaping, life in this breathtaking three-bedroom evolution has never looked so luminous.
All three plush, carpeted bedrooms covet the home's original footprint; the primary suite emphasised by a decorative fireplace and a fully tiled luxe ensuite.
The ultimate living end captures every outdoor moment through a trilogy of sliding glass doors: stoke the firepit beneath a sky full of stars, dress the festive table beneath the skylit alfresco, or watch the action unfold from the sweeping open plan kitchen, swathed in marble-veined benchtops.
And where the kitchen morphs into the adjoining laundry room, you can let it double as a butler's dream.
Set in one of Adelaide's most lifestyle-rich pockets, within the prized Glenunga International High School zone, just 400m from Goodwood Primary, and mere moments from trams, cafés, markets, and the city, the luxury buyer will want for absolutely nothing.
Cottage charm transformed on a family-sized 587m2 allotment is a truly rare combination – one that buyers relentlessly pursue in this elite locale – making 87 Albert a remodel not to be missed.
