Adelaide SA 5000

(Please ensure you bring a mask with you if you wish to inspect this property.)

It is quite exceptional to find a house in the CBD with such a large rear space providing a perfect blank canvas opportunity for a multi level addition above secure garaging (STCC).

The cottage is also within the City of Adelaide's historic zone and eligible to access the Restoration Incentive Scheme (RIS) which provides financial support for conservation work associated with the restoration of the original faade, timber fretwork and facia boards so there's scope to choose your own colourscheme when you become the new owner and have the council's RIS contribute to the costs associated with the repair work.

Providing an incredible opportunity to acquire a character laden home on 200 sqm with three bedrooms, 2021 brand new white kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops and island bench, family living room, off street carparking and/or rear garden, all within walking distance of the CBD, the Central Market, public transport, shops, supermarkets and restaurants, it will attract a myriad of buyers including families, professional couples, downsizers and investors.

Surprisingly large and with desirable Victorian era features including gorgeous stained glass and leadlight, original tessellated tile veranda, high ceilings, stunning marble fireplaces, elaborate ceiling roses and cornices and beautiful original Baltic pine floorboards, this home is packed to the rafters with potential to renovate to your heart's desire and reap the rewards.

Its versatile floorplan includes a blend of formal and informal living spaces with up to three bedrooms and a private back garden with potential for side by side off street carparking accessed via Vincent Place.

Behind a pretty front traditional faade and tessellated tiled veranda, the four panel front door is surrounded by original leadlight dating back more than a century.

Once inside, three bedrooms, a large bathroom and separate laundry all lead off the long arched hallway and open via a stained glass door at the end of the passage into a gleaming white kitchen and light filled living room at the rear.

The living room has a wall of glass windows and a set of doors opening into the back yard which is currently disposed as side by side off street parking for two cars. A double roller door at the rear of the property opens onto Vincent Place.

It is quite exceptional to find a house in the CBD with such a large rear space providing a perfect blank canvas opportunity for a multi level addition above secure garaging (STCC). The side gate can be locked for security but enables access down one side of the property for additional convenience.

Of course it is highly desirable just the way it is and perfect for families, professional couples or downsizers who want to include an alfresco brick paved dining area, provision for off street carparking and/or a private rear garden.
