A stunning c.1925 sandstone bungalow already thoughtfully extended and refurbished, 9 Somerset captures the soul of a classic character home while delivering the space, light, and functionality modern families crave. Set in one of the inner south's most tightly held, tree-lined pockets, this is a timeless residence where original charm and contemporary comfort come together across a beautifully kept parcel in the heart of Cumberland Park.
Beyond the proud sandstone façade, manicured gardens, and wide porch entry, a grand entry introduces a home rich in warmth and proportion. A lofty formal lounge and three generous bedrooms sit beneath soaring ceilings, while refreshed hybrid floors guide you through to the light-filled heart of the home. Here, open-plan living and dining unfold around a striking stone-topped kitchen crafted for connection, conversation, and everyday ease.
This is a space designed to bring people together. Sweeping bench tops, sleek appliances, and a walk-in pantry keep busy mornings and mid-week meals running smoothly, while uninterrupted sightlines and seamless indoor-outdoor flow make entertaining a joy. Wide doors extend the living zone to an expansive alfresco overlooking sun-soaked lawns and established trees, creating a north-facing backyard primed for long lunches, relaxed evenings, and year-round hosting.
Instantly liveable and thoughtfully enhanced, the home also delivers exceptional flexibility. A stylish modern family bathroom, ducted evaporative cooling, split-system units throughout, and bill-busting solar ensure comfort is covered, while a separate outdoor studio or home office adds inspiring versatility for remote work, creative pursuits, or impressive teenage retreat.
Completing the picture is a generous 659sqm allotment with scope to further extend down the track should the need ever arise (STCC), paired with a location that's hard to beat. Public and private schooling sits close by, cafés and shops are moments away, King William Road's boutique dining and retail is just 5-minutes from home, and Adelaide CBD lies a breezy 4km away. Character, convenience, and lifestyle harmony-this is inner-south living at its finest.
