Some homes carry a kind of warmth that simply can't be built new - and this C1880 row cottage at the city's leafy fringe is exactly that. Two bedrooms, a rear studio, and a Tuscan-inspired courtyard that will have you rethinking what character really means.
Both bedrooms open the footprint with built-in robes, beautifully modernised while holding tight to the heritage that runs through every room. Pine floorboards, 3m ceilings, ornate archways, and that particular essence that only comes with age - it's all here, perfectly preserved.
The open lounge is made to conjure cosiness, while the stone-topped kitchen flows through French doors to a sun-drenched courtyard with a distinctly Tuscan feel. Whether you're entertaining a crowd or enjoying a quiet Sunday, inside and out work equally well.
The clawfoot tub adds another layer of period charm to the bathroom, and the carpeted rear studio rounds out the floorplan as a second living zone or dedicated home office - flexible, private, and surprisingly generous for its usually petite postcode.
Zoned to Parkside Primary and Glenunga International High School, secured with a private laneway and alarm system, and just minutes from the city fringe - this is Parkside at its most quintessential.
