42 Coglin Street

Brompton SA 5007

Set in a quiet neighbourhood on a no-through road, this home is a true inner-city retreat. Beautifully restored with a tranquil, leafy and private garden, the current owners have created a wonderful, liveable home over the years with its own unique expression.
From the exquisite House of Hackney wallpapered walls to the handmade Italian tiles, you will fall in love with the elegance of this stunning residence.


The large master bedroom comprises BIRs, a modern in built dresser with a large bevelled mirror and stunning French style casement windows overlooking a leafy garden. Two extra bedrooms, both with BIRs and cedar casement windows provide plenty of extra room for children or guests.
Recently installed ducted A/C flows throughout the home for ease of heating and cooling, as well as a cosy wood burning heater with an antique cast iron mantlepiece and marble hearth which is perfect for winter ambience.
Custom built bookshelves in the lounge area will display a wealth of books and all your favourite things, whilst handmade gilded mirrors add a touch of old world luxury to the space.
There are large Velux glass skylights to provide plenty of natural light in the living areas all year round and at night they bring the stars and the moon into your home.


The open plan kitchen and dining area are a cooks delight with ample bench space for meal preparation. Featuring a Smeg gas 900mm stove with fan forced oven and Miele range hood, the cook can serve their guests on the large timber breakfast bar overlooking the landscaped garden and private yard.
The kitchen is also equipped with a dishwasher, large stainless double sink and plenty of cupboard storage.

The large bathroom is light filled and spacious with a double sized enclosed glass shower, new vanity, bath and Velux glass skylight.


Throughout the year you can enjoy the very quiet and leafy rear yard; there are families of local birds to meet and wonderful evenings to be enjoyed sitting on the deck with friends or swinging in a hammock reading a book. Two sets of large French doors open onto the rear yard to admire well established trees, including a magnificent 100 year old olive tree that sits majestically in the centre. Beautiful evergreen box hedging and mature orange and fig trees lend a Mediterranean atmosphere to the garden. A large hardwood deck and a red brick paved area is perfect for entertaining guests with thoughtful fold-away outdoor seating built in.
The garden is maintained by an irrigation system making watering effortless.
But perhaps one of the greatest assets of this home is the surprise you receive when you walk through the rear secure gate. Awaiting on the other side is a quiet park which sits at the end of a very quiet cul de sac....this hidden gem is invaluable for a family with children who need extra playing room or somewhere to walk your furry family members.


Secure, walk-in storage cupboards line the southern side of the property, all with painted concrete floors, lighting and power. There is plenty of shelving ideal for storing all manner of things or to house a second fridge, store bicycles or use as a workshop.
They have been beautifully clad in timber slats to match the adjacent Studio.
The 4.7x 6m Studio, insulated with a painted concrete floor, power and lighting, is ripe for conversion into a teenagers retreat, artists space or self-contained AirBnB to generate income.
One thing is for sure, this property has no lack of storage space or extra room which is very rare for an inner-city dwelling.

Being a no through road on a quiet street, parking is not a problem. PERMIT PARKING is offered to the occupants 24/7 for 2 cars out the front of the home.

This gorgeous home is literally only 10 minutes walk to either cosmopolitan Plant 4 in Bowden or Queen St cafes in Croydon.
Commuting to the city can be a breeze now by bike, accessing a separated bikeway on Coglin St, taking you safely into town along the picturesque Torrens River Linear Park.

42 Coglin St is a superb lifestyle property, which ticks all the boxes. It is a home that has been lovingly restored with exceptional attention to detail.
Homes like this one are rarely seen and never last long on the market.
