Last Listing description (October 2023)

Striking a charming figure from its wide, tree-lined street in one of Adelaide's most tightly-held suburbs; this extended symmetrical sandstone villa is beautiful, boundless proof that the little details make all the difference on its expansive parcel with a pool and prized rear access.

From its lovingly preserved original features to the expansive Rebecca Ryan-designed rear addition that sympathises with the villa's C1910 origins, those details piece together a home of undoubted freedom, form and function.

The list of periodic improvements is so long it reads like a novel, ensuring everything from the ducted R/C to the 17KW solar system run like clockwork in this timeless home with an ultra-modern floorplan of multiple living zone and up to five bedrooms.

With granite benchtops, quality stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar to bring everyone together for causal mid-week meals, the kitchen epitomises that functionality at the head of a family room with soaring coffered ceilings and an instant connection to the rear alfresco pavilion.

The master wing - featuring an ensuite, home office and walk-in robe - also connects to the outside world through a set of French doors, framing the lush greenery of a rear yard with fruit trees, raised veggie patches, large lawned area, that summer-ready pool and a glimpse of the Adelaide Hills in the distance.

A home that feels so removed from the city's pulse is in fact less than 10 minutes' drive from The Parade and 15 from the East End, not to mention moments from the Linear Park, paving the way for a lifestyle that's simply second to none. Now you're home.
