Full of character and charm, this striking single-fronted 1880s bluestone villa presents an exceptional opportunity in one of Adelaide's most tightly held city-fringe locales. Perfectly positioned just steps from the buzzing café culture of Goodwood Road and minutes from the CBD, this charming home offers the ideal blend of heritage detail and modern-day convenience.
Beyond the storybook façade, the home immediately captivates with its hallmark period features: soaring ceilings, original solid timber floors, intricate leadlighting, and ornate fireplaces that whisper stories of a bygone era.
A long, light-filled hallway guides you through the original front portion of the home, where two generously proportioned bedrooms await, each thoughtfully appointed with built-in robes and ceiling fans, blending classic character with modern comfort. A charming formal lounge provides a peaceful retreat, perfect for relaxed evenings or intimate conversations.
Toward the rear, the home opens into a bright and airy open-plan living, dining, and kitchen zone, a space designed for connection, ease, and entertaining. The contemporary kitchen impresses with gas cooking, stainless steel appliances, abundant storage, and a stylish breakfast bar, offering both functionality and flair for everyday living.
Glass sliding doors reveal a spacious timber deck, seamlessly connecting the indoors to a private, leafy rear garden. Framed by greenery and bathed in northern sun, this outdoor haven is perfect for weekend gatherings, peaceful morning rituals, or letting children and pets explore in secure surrounds.
Tastefully updated throughout, the home's low-maintenance layout suits a variety of buyers-from professionals and creatives to downsizers or investors looking for a property rich in soul and smart in design.
Within walking distance to tram stops, the Wayville Farmers Market, excellent local schools, and some of Adelaide's best cafés and boutiques, is a home where lifestyle leads the way.
