Once a C1890 stone-fronted villa with classic proportions and century-old charm, what now stands at 5 Opey Avenue is a bold and beautiful reinvention - rewired, replumbed and architecturally reimagined to celebrate its past while stepping completely, confidently into the present.
A striking fusion of eras, the original facade gives little away - behind it, a sweeping extension unfolds around a 75-year-old olive tree, where light, air, and flow take centre stage in a showstopping open-plan design unlike anything else in Hyde Park.
Here, every inch has been considered. From the restored architraves and grand ceilings to the meticulously integrated modern conveniences - think video intercom, alarm system, CCTV and a fully enclosed perimeter - creating a private sanctuary in one of Adelaide’s most cosmopolitan postcodes.
Park behind the electric sliding gate and covered carport before taking a leisurely stroll through Metro Shopping Centre, meeting friends for a Friday spritz at Dolly, or browsing boutiques along King William Road - all just steps from your door.
Inside, up to four bedrooms promise versatility and scale, headlined by a lavish master suite with walk-in robe and a couple's ensuite finished in Villeroy & Boch, gold tapware and marble tiling - a luxurious retreat that whispers indulgence.
Polished pine floors guide you through generous proportions and warm sandstone curves, leading to the heart of the home: a chef’s kitchen with shaker cabinetry, integrated appliances and stone island concealing a pop-up scotch bar - perfectly paired with the custom wine room and Vintec champagne fridge.
Entertain effortlessly beneath Italian chandeliers and the soft glow of a gas fireplace, with Bowers & Wilkins sound system setting the mood. When summer arrives, the party moves outside to the solar-heated pool, alfresco pavilion and barn-style pool room - equally suited to Pilates as it is to poolside prosecco.
This isn’t just a villa renovation - it’s a reinvention with soul, sophistication and a distinctly South Australian sensibility, redefining what it means to live luxuriously in Hyde Park…
