Romance and Charm
Presenting with all the romance of the era, this beautiful sandstone villa is the classic home offering all the charm and style we adore in North Adelaide. So beautiful, fall in love and move in, if desired then perfecting the dream over time. Cited as an excellent example of the 1880s symmetrically fronted residence in this historic enclave, the lucky home owners can simultaneously enjoy a thoroughly contemporary lifestyle minutes from the activity of O’Connell Street and walking distance to the City. Set privately behind the brush fence, catch a glimpse of the villa front, rendered quoins on sandstone, the bull-nosed verandah with decorative cast iron, all very seductive in one of Adelaide’s most desirable suburbs.
Entering the home the attractive façade is similarly replicated within. Large original rooms boast high ceilings, tall skirtings and beautiful traditional elements. The hall of generous dimensions is designed impressively for a formal entry. The beautiful sitting room with ornate fireplace and over mantle entreats to be enjoyed every day of the year with wonderful flooding light through double north-facing windows. The outlook is to the pretty front garden, sunny in winter and filtered in summer. Comprising of four large bedrooms, bedrooms one and two have built-in robes. All bedrooms share a generous family bathroom with double vanity and spa bath. To the rear of the home a second bathroom is located very conveniently.
To the rear of the home the kitchen overlooks an open-plan family room and meals area. A Jag kitchen features a central bench, bespoke cabinetry, stainless steel double oven and gas hotplates. The work space extends into the adjacent laundry and could be easily updated to a butler’s pantry. Similarly for the whole house, there is potential for reconfiguring offered by the current floorplan. A gleaming timber floor flows through the informal area and French doors allow a pleasant escape to the rear garden filled with hedges and fruit trees.
Be seduced by this fabulous home situated so enviably with everything on offer. Just minutes from the city and convenient to shopping, restaurants and cafes, leave the car and walk to Adelaide Oval. Pop over to Perryman’s Bakery, enjoy the secure playground and openness of the Parklands at the Lefevre Terrace end of the street. Children can walk to North Adelaide Primary just along the street. Flirt with spontaneity, embrace the opportunity and make this home yours to live well, enjoy much and simply love.
