Dulwich SA 5065

* Re-released due to contract failure *The enduring grace of a Victorian-era villa meets an inspired rear reimagining with a dreamy poolside exclamation mark, making it the beautifully resolved 5-bedroomed reason to call its sleepy Dulwich no-through road your 'forever' within a fleeting stroll of Victoria Park and the CBD. Rather than sanding its past away, the immaculate original villa proudly shows off its arched hallway, custom leadlight 'Watson' doors, 14-foot ceilings, decorative fireplaces and tessellated hearths, Baltic pine floors, intricate ceiling roses, designer linen lighting, Fornasetti feature wallpaper and a procession of grand rooms. Marked by a custom steel framed door, the transition from villa to open-plan extension to burnished concrete pavilion runs in one stylish, crowd-pleasing sweep past a dark and moody kitchen, Venetian-plastered bathroom and underground cellar before settling in for the poolside summers of your life. A grand home that finally got the ending it deserved. You're only just getting started.
