Behind a picturesque white picket fence and neat manicured gardens at 1 Edward Street, Evandale, lies this fully renovated 3-bedroom sandstone return verandah villa. Beautifully updated and extended in 2018/19, it combines original character with contemporary comfort in one of Adelaide's most desirable blue-chip locations.
Step inside to lofty 3.2m ceilings, eye-catching feature pendant lighting and a bright, airy atmosphere. The semi open-plan living and dining areas flow effortlessly into a superbly appointed modern kitchen and casual meals zone. Cook and entertain in style with sleek stone benchtops, a generous island, crisp white soft-closing cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a convenient wine cellar beneath. Blonde timber floating floors and elegant lead lighting in the wide entranceway add refined original touches, while striking character fireplaces feature throughout.
The three generous bedrooms are all light-filled and carpeted, with the large master offering garden views and built-in robes. Bedrooms two and three also enjoy built-in robes and large windows. The stylish main bathroom features a stone-topped floating vanity, freestanding bathtub perfect for long soaks, separate shower, and a conveniently separate toilet. A practical family-friendly laundry and mudroom extension provides generous storage and everyday ease.
Outside, a sun-bathed red-brick alfresco and paved patio sit just off the kitchen - ideal for weekend barbecues or twilight dinners. The huge pitched carport (with roller door and direct side-street access) offers secure space for two cars or additional undercover entertaining, kept private behind tall fencing. A handy garden shed and low-maintenance manicured gardens (complete with pop-up irrigation and timed drippers) finish the package perfectly. Ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning ensures year-round comfort.
