16 Thorpe St, Torrens Park is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces and was built in 1960. The property has a land size of 1005m2 and floor size of 232m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in May 2023.
So inconspicuous you'll miss Thorpe Street if you don't go looking for it, we can't think of a better setting for this architectural two-storey home that subtly channels 'Palm Springs' - and puts the likes of Scotch College and Mitcham Square in the palm of its hand.
Set back from a verge - and the boundary of its expansive parcel - there's a rare tranquility about this white, bright and airy home that strikes an imposing north-facing figure from the street, entertains in style at its rear and oozes those universally adored mid-century vibes.
The family room is the key to it all; connecting the tree-lined front aspect to a rear alfresco pavilion with its very own outdoor kitchen and cafe blinds - the party starter in a rear yard made for garden parties and more than ready for that pool you've always wanted (STPC).
If you want multiple living zones, a stylishly updated galley kitchen, off-street parking for a fleet and a master bedroom with its own ensuite and walk-in robe, the search ends with a home that feels like a world away, less than 15 minutes from the CBD. Special? Sure is.
