Sitting proudly on some 836sqm spanning from one of Unley's most prestigious streets to the prized lane at its rear, this C1900 sandstone charmer emerges on the market for the first time since the 1960's as one of the purest homes of its kind, destined to relive its glory days and extend its timeless footprint into the 21st century.
Behind its enduring return-verandah facade is a classic plan of four main rooms, each as grandly proportioned as the next and connected to a wide, arched hall showcasing the home's impossibly high ceilings.
Peel back the old Lino flooring to reveal Baltic pine boards that have hardly seen the light of day, will glisten under a polish, and confirm any pressing matters here are largely cosmetic.
Call your architect (if you haven't already) because the pull of replacing the rear lean-to with a bold, ultra-modern addition is as strong as the pull of this blue-chip suburb that places cosmopolitan Unley and King William Road, esteemed schools, the boundless southern parklands and the city beyond within arms reach.
This is the one you don't let go.
