There is a rare and particular happiness to be found in a townhouse that sits plum in the beating heart of Norwood yet feels entirely removed from the world.
Your arrival at 2/5 Alfred Street is greeted by an unexpected charm as you enter an exclusive group where the air is scented by lemon trees and the gardens are personally tendered with a pride of place. Tucked away on a whisper-quiet lane just one street back from the grand estates of Osmond Terrace this residence is a secret clearing in the centre of the city where the energy of the Parade is your backyard yet the atmosphere at home remains one of total hidden comfort.
To live here is to embrace a lifestyle of chic simplicity. Large windows flood each space with light while feature Edison globe lights cast a moody glow that balances the crisp modern palette. The kitchen retains its original charm offering a functional and nostalgic heart to the home that feels perfectly at peace with its contemporary surroundings.
The journey through the home reveals architectural textures such as the timber-paneled staircase which provides a tactile nod to a sophisticated alpine ski lodge. Beneath these stairs a clever study nook offers a private corner for work or correspondence while the updated laundry and guest toilet have been finished with precision and neatness.
The upper level has been treated to a comprehensive revival featuring brand-new carpets and a fresh coat of paint leading to a fully renovated designer bathroom with a frameless shower and sleek vanity. The three bedrooms are each spoilt with views of both sky and treetop elevated to a height that puts you in a place above the clouds.
These rooms are bathed in natural light while the balconies on either side of the home serve as the true soul of the residence. These elevated terraces are the perfect space where a glass of chilled wine or a morning tea is a necessity as you watch the sun sink behind the horizon and the city lights twinkle over the Norwood canopy.
The magic of Alfred Street is found in the strength of its community and its unbeatable location. Directly across the way sits the lush Community Garden which serves as a vibrant green extension of your front yard.
Whether it is walking the dog along the elm-lined majesty of Osmond Terrace catching a bus for a six-minute commute to the CBD or enjoying a spontaneous dinner at Parade icons like 400 Gradi and the Robin Hood Hotel everything is within reach. Being part of an owner-occupied group of only four dwellings creates a sense of security and genuine friendship seldom found elsewhere.
This property is a sanctuary that offers a front-row seat to the very best of Norwood, and is now avaliable for you to make your own.
