This four bedroom executive residence, beautifully sited in the most serene and refined of landscaped gardens, stands out as one of the most immaculately presented properties we have had the privilege of offering to quality home seekers.

The meticulous planning and execution of the renovation and extension of this character home have seen lavish amounts of money and discerning taste bestowed upon it, producing an embracing ambience of warmth, balanced space and refined elegance.

The culmination of these painstaking works is a most comfortable and versatile family home, capable of accommodating the needs of the active executive family or maybe those retiring from a larger family estate desiring a home with warmth, character and amenity in this blue chip, near city location but without the burdens of large, high maintenance grounds.

The wide entrance hall with double arches and stained glass features are a promise of beautiful things to follow from the character sandstone faade of the home with its wide, welcoming return veranda and substantial wrought iron front fence.

The gracious formal lounge features a character fireplace, plush window treatments and soothing views to the front yard, graced with the beauty of one of Adelaides oldest Crepe Myrtle trees.

A modern extension lined with solid blackbutt flooring accommodates the grand kitchen/ meals area adjoining a delightful family room. The family room features bespoke built-in wall cabinetry with storage, bookshelves and a central Jetmaster fireplace to provide a cosy focal point for your family on cold winter nights.

Avid chefs will appreciate the finer detail of the spectacular gourmet kitchen that also enjoys an alluring view of the manicured rear gardens, framed perfectly by an elegant bay window.

Expanses of rich black granite provide a durable work surface, while mirrored splash backs add a rich backdrop to the backlit display cabinets.
Quality Miele, Smeg and Qasair appliances will make light work of food production for family and friends.

Entertaining in style or private relaxation are equally enhanced by a tranquil, north facing French Provincial courtyard, protected from the elements by a limestone wall backdrop and a quality pergola in toughened glass and commercial aluminium.

The courtyard integrates with the delightful gardens of the rear yard, overseen by an inviting gazebo, ideal for relaxing with your favourite drop as the sun sets on a warm Adelaide evening.

Flexible sleeping accommodation is provided by four double bedrooms. The spacious master bedroom suite is graced by a feature gas fire place, a designer walk in robe and a glamorous, light filled ensuite featuring rich granite tiling, under floor heating, double basins in natural stone and a large glass shower alcove. A separate external door leads to a private tranquil courtyard area.
