2 Whinham St, Fitzroy is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House and was built in 1880. The property has a land size of 522m2 and floor size of 202m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in December 2016.
Set behind a finely preserved bluestone faade, this C.1880 villa unfolds with quiet confidence on a generous north-facing allotment, moments from Prospect Road and the parklands.
A home of enduring character, where original proportions are beautifully retained, with soaring ceilings, polished timber floors and leadlight glazing forming a refined counterpoint to a considered, full scale reinvention.
Four substantial bedrooms line the traditional hall, each generous in scale and beautifully resolved, while a versatile front sitting room offers flexibility as a fifth bedroom or secondary living space.
To the rear, the home transitions with intent. A light-filled open-plan addition anchors daily living, centred around a design-led kitchen where dark joinery, stone surfaces and integrated appliances are balanced by warm timber detailing and a walk-in pantry of genuine scale.
Living and dining extend seamlessly to a wraparound deck and Vergola-covered terrace a natural extension of the home, designed for year-round entertaining.
Beyond, the north-facing garden offers both space and privacy, with established greenery, open lawn and a sense of breathing room rarely found this close to the city.
The result is a residence that respects its origins while embracing a more contemporary way of living, a home of substance. Quietly positioned within one of Fitzroy's most tightly held pockets, moments from Prospect and North Adelaide's established dining and retail precincts.
