Impeccably edited for lifestyle with the utmost lock-and-leave security, this standalone bluestone cottage is a play on striking contrasts a late 1800s outer shell paired with quiet designer confidence within.
Its petite masculinity and cosmopolitan edge carry a uniquely Parisian undertone; and from the moment the gate shuts behind you, the city disappears.
Formerly a barrister's office, its c.2024 remodel has recast the cottage as an urban two-bedroom retreat - and one of Adelaide's most compelling escape plans.
Glimpses of courtyard greenery are captured front and back. From entry, citrus and espaliered jasmine greet your arrival; beyond the rear dining zone, French doors spill open for a Pol Roger with friends against the privately hedged and paved terrace.
Look up - and soaring high rises are the only hint you're in the heart of the city.
Led by two large bedrooms, each space is readily adaptable for the retiree, professional or downsizer - bedroom two is currently customised as a decadent dressing room.
Oak hardwood floors float throughout, quality custom joinery delivers eye-catching storage, and the sleek open plan kitchen and combined laundry/bathroom are equally high calibre.
The large sitting room hosts a library wall and outdoor connection through light-filling French doors and here, the city's history comes along to complement its masterful redesign.
No car? There's no need for one when you can bike, walk, or hail a bus everywhere from this well-connected pocket. Cross leafy Whitmore Square for dumplings in Chinatown, or an Asian-Fusion dining discovery at Lantern by Nu, virtually next door.
A world-away haven it is, in the city's most vibrant urban pocket.
