Reimagined so perfectly it's hard to know where the original bungalow ends and its vast extension begins, Wisteria House evolves like a dream and saves its best for last on a 992sqm plot with a pool, studio, four-car garage and prized rear access.
The open-plan kitchen, powder room, underfloor heated ensuite and bill-busting solar system - all added by its current owners - ensure the story is complete for this beguiling 1920s 4-bedroom home with living zones at its bookends.
It begins with a stately front lounge featuring impossibly high ceilings, brick fireplace, chandelier and plantation shutters that send dappled lights across its timber floors.
All bedrooms are a beautiful size, none bigger than the primary suite - with modern bathroom, dressing room and idyllic garden views - that breaks away into its own light-filled wing.
The extension ensured two vast living zones orbit a stone-topped kitchen with Miele dishwasher, Bosch cooktop, dual Neff appliances, walk-in pantry, breakfast bar and a windowed splashback.
The spill to the timber-decked alfresco pavilion is as instinctive as it is to throw the bathers on and dive straight into the oversized salt-chlorinated pool with that classic kidney shape and crazy paved surrounds.
That studio gives artists, tinkerers or anyone working from home an air-conditioned, productive haven with a view to pool and landscaped garden.
Come via Giles Street, leave in the sports car you have stowed in that rear four-car garage or go for a stroll and you'll hit The Parade, Burnside Village, Dulwich's cafes or the CBD quicker than you can say 'Wisteria House it is then'.
