Last Listing description (August 2021)

Magnificent lofty and ornate ceilings, original timber floors and character fireplaces throughout all combine to make this a gem that's easy to fall for-either to move in or as a gorgeous blank canvas ripe for new ideas and renovations.

This beautiful sandstone fronted 1915 symmetrical cottage with its welcoming wide verandah featuring tessellated tiles invites you inside to experience living within the Adelaide City fringe of sought-after Forestville. You'll love living on this tree-lined street that offers easy access to so much from the eclectic cafes and restaurants of Goodwood and King William Roads to the atmosphere of the Wayville Show Grounds' farmers' market.

A fabulous home, it elicits those feelings reminiscent of a bygone era with traditional Baltic timber flooring into the hallway and beyond. There is so much potential for you to add your own personal touches and restore this beauty to its original splendour. Boasting a wide central hallway, three bedrooms plus study, two bathrooms and additional powder room, formal lounge with fireplace, enormous living room with fireplace and separate entrance with an adjacent kitchen. The spacious rear verandah/alfresco entertaining area overlooking an attractive cottage garden is the perfect place for family and friends to gather. Off street parking is catered for with the double auto roller door carport. Ducted reverse cycle air conditioning throughout allows the home to be comfortable throughout all seasons.

Ask yourself, is there a better location? Set in the leafy streets of Forestville, only 3kms from the CBD and a short stroll to various public transport options including the local tram into town or down to the fabulous beaches of Glenelg makes getting out about for the social activities or for work an absolute breeze.
Zoned to Adelaide High School, Adelaide Botanic High School, and close to premium private colleges, only a short stroll to the tram, bus, Unley Swimming Centre, and plus Ashford Hospital.
Indeed, a stunning property with potential plus – an opportunity that comes once in a lifetime!!

Your Personal Inspection is Strongly Recommended!!
