44 Gilbert Street

Adelaide SA 5000

The 2001 Architectural built home is perfect as a city residence for busy executives, or for those looking to maybe downsize and enjoy all the benefits that city living offers.

Or...perhaps you're still working and looking for that perfect blend of living and working from home.

Or...do you have the desire to really get the property working financially for you? Because there's just another self contained studio at the rear!

Ideal for interstate guests, air bnb, or even a long term rental (please note that the Vendor is not making any representations regarding future returns, but will be pleased to provide past history and nature of occupancy).

Under the roof of the main residence on the ground floor is a vibrant lounge and dining area with industrial influences. It's well serviced by the classic black and white kitchen, with its dark grey granite benchtops and integrated appliances (fridge and dishwasher). Along with the Kleenmaid Oven, AEG gas cooktop and Neff Microwave, this is the perfect place for the host to cook up a storm for their guests, whilst serving the canapes and the cocktails around the island bench.

Upstairs is luxe dark carpeting offering accommodation in the form of 1-2 bedrooms (one room is currently utilised as an office/lounge, which overlooks the courtyard. This large space could easily become a bedroom, or kept as a study, or a combination of both, perhaps). This lovely light space has plenty of built ins and its North facing windows engulf the sun.

The other room is currently disposed as the master bedroom, and it's equipped with plenty of cupboard storage as well as a walk in wardrobe. It offers a delightful private balcony which would be a great spot to enjoy one's morning coffee and the morning sun, and to just watch the world go by on the street below.

There is also a full sized bathroom located here, with a bath as well as separate shower.

The attractively landscaped courtyard is simply glorious. With its coloured walls consistent with the Meditteranean influences throughout, the striking Bouganvillea is a stark and dramatic contrast to help one manifest one's next adventure to Tuscany. And one can only imagine the entertaining opportunities as the weather gets warmer- cue the festoon lights and the cocktails!
The established hedges and mop top trees means that this space is delightfully low maintenance, whilst still providing a stunning spectacle between the main residence and its second apartment. Night lighting transforms it to a magical private entertaining area.

There is a separate entrance located here for the rear studio apartment, which is upstairs and positioned over the secured garaging (for 2 vehicles) at the rear (easily accessible from the laneway).

The rear apartment, known as "Studio 44" is completely and delightfully self contained, and has been most recently used to generate additional income for the current owner.

Light and bright, there's a black and white bathroom with terrazzo floor, a fully equipped kitchenette in the same colour scheme, and a luxurious studio sized bedroom. It's been carefully designed to also accommodate a study area which overlooks the rear lane, whilst also having plenty of wardrobe space. There's the bonus of a balcony for the occupant/s to engulf the sun's rays from the North.

The location of this unique residence is unsurpassed. An easy walk to the local IGA, Prohibition Liquor Co, Hello Stranger, The Gilbert St Hotel, The Central Market, Chinatown and too many others to name. Walk into the CBD in minutes and sample all the delights Adelaide City has to offer. Shopping, schools, transport options, all are at one's fingertips.

And with such a flexible and unique floorplan, this cleverly designed residence ticks all the boxes for utilising and maximising every square inch of space, whilst not compromising its aesthetic appeal. There will never be another one like this!
