The symmetrical, sandstone-fronted villa that gives such a beautiful nod to its 1890s origins takes an architectural turn to the 21st century in this generous, clever and designer-curated collision of now and then.
That's just minutes by foot from bike paths, ovals, dog parks, Japanese gardens and green expanses to the front door of a 4-bedroom home that puts a premium on family freedom and enviable entertaining, inside and out.
Completed in just 2013, that open-plan architectural addition more than nearly doubled the original footprint of a villa headlined by a repointed facade, lofty pressed metal ceilings, polished pine floors, fireplaces, bundles of natural light, a long hall, and big bedrooms.
Designed to cross ventilate and cool itself passively through louvres and high, north-facing hopper windows, the extension is bright in more ways than one and steps smoothly out to an alfresco pavilion with its own kitchen and cafe blinds.
A clear vision co-created by its long-standing owners and Hosking Interior Design, the decision to allocate generous dimensions to the spaces that matter most was simply a masterstroke.
With a sea of Corian stone, an endless island, two ovens, induction cooktop, walk-in pantry and storage galore, the kitchen is a stroke of classy, culinary ingenuity at the head of open-plan living framed in bamboo floors and those soaring raked ceilings.
Your finest drops will find a cool, dry place to mature in a cellar with a glass door and the dimensions to match the main bathroom above it; where a freestanding tub and heated floors mimic the sleek style, space and supreme functionality of the master's ensuite.
Just a stroll from the CBD, the daily commute to work has never been easier in a home that's so hard to ignore on the deceptively quiet edges of Hyde Park, Unley and those Parklands. This is the one.
