There are homes that simply feel special from the moment you arrive, and this beautifully restored bluestone villa is one of them. Set behind a brush fence and framed by standard roses, the approach alone hints at the care and craftsmanship that defines the entire property. What unfolds beyond the front door is a home that honours its 1880s origins while delivering every comfort expected of modern living.
Inside, the original residence is rich with character, including soaring ceilings, timber floors underfoot, and original fireplace surrounds anchoring each room with quiet elegance. Four generous bedrooms and a refined sitting room offer flexibility for family life, guests or work- from-home spaces, all wrapped in the warmth and charm that only a home of this era can provide.
Then, as you move through, the home opens up in the most striking way. A contemporary rear extension introduces a completely different, yet perfectly complementary, experience. It is light- filled and designed for connection. Burnished concrete floors with underfloor heating, a lofty skillion roof and walls of glass create a space that feels both grounded and uplifting, seamlessly linking
indoors to the alfresco area beyond.
At the centre, the kitchen is as beautiful as it is functional. The oversized American Oak island bench invites gathering, while clean white cabinetry and a well-appointed butler's pantry ensure everything is in its place. It's a space that effortlessly supports everything from busy mornings to long, relaxed evenings with family and friends.
Outside, the home continues to give. A generous alfresco area with outdoor kitchen, ceiling fans, specialised lighting that creates the perfect setting for entertaining, while the landscaped gardens offer space to play, grow and unwind. Lawn, vegetable beds, and established planting are all thoughtfully arranged and fully irrigated, making it easy to enjoy without the burden of constant
upkeep.
Set on a corner allotment with valuable side access to a double carport and a large powered shed, this is a home that balances beauty with practicality. And with Goodwood's cafés, shops, parks and transport links all just moments away, the lifestyle on offer is as compelling as the home itself.
