17 Montpelier Street

Parkside SA 5063

Rather than tack on something jarring, custom builder Sarico ensured the vast open-rear addition paid timeless homage to the cottage's C1890s origins.

And so the dramatic dark Baltic pine floors and impossibly high ceilings that greet you don't end until this light-drenched home spills effortlessly through French doors to the crowd-pleasing Eclipse Louvres vergola at its sunny rear.

The idea is that it's hard to know where original ends and new begins. Mission accomplished in a home that pairs its classical looks with the modern comforts of a bill-busting solar system, zoned ducted a/c and slick, fully-tiled bathrooms. Ensuite included.

The undoubted shining star: a custom shaker-style kitchen with thick stone benchtops, integrated Miele appliances, butler's pantry and an expansive island/breakfast bar that glows under a pair of Velux skylights.

Whether it's the ornate fireplaces, light-dappling plantation shutters or the strip lighting that puts your favourite pair of Christian Louboutins on display in the master's walk-in robe; the beauty lives in the details here.

And here couldn't be better placed; a leafy, quiet street lined in like-minded character homes, all close enough to the city it feels like you can just reach out and grab an impromptu visit to the Central Market. Magic.
