DISTINCTIVE C.1890 RESIDENCE WITH ENVIABLE MODERN FAMILY LIVING
BEST OFFERS BY TUESDAY, 31ST MARCH BY 2PM (USP)
Built in C.1890 and set on approximately 526sqm in one of Adelaide’s tightly held inner city pockets, this beautifully restored character residence with a north-facing extension has been thoughtfully designed for modern family living. Positioned in quiet, leafy Gilberton just moments from the Torrens Linear Park and only minutes from the CBD, the home offers a desirable lifestyle opportunity close to leading schools, Walkerville Terrace shopping and popular local cafés.
Landscaped gardens, veggie patches and rose arbours frame the original sandstone façade, while the traditional verandah with decorative lacework provides a welcoming introduction to the home’s defining character.
Inside, polished timber floorboards, high ceilings and a grand central hallway with feature archway set the tone. Plantation shutters to the front rooms and decorative fireplaces throughout add a sense of refinement. A light-filled formal lounge with bespoke built in cabinetry and shelving provides a comfortable space to relax or entertain guests.
At the rear of the home, an expansive north-facing open plan living, dining and kitchen area forms the central gathering space for daily life. A Euro fireplace provides a warm focal point during cooler months while the overall space remains bright and open.
The kitchen balances practicality with timeless design, featuring crisp white cabinetry, a generous central island with stone benchtop and a freestanding gas cooker. A horizontal window draws natural light across the workspace while offering a pleasant outlook beyond. Abundant overhead and under bench storage is complemented by a walk-in pantry with removable shelving.
Hardwood bifold doors with phantom fly screens extend the living space to the rear garden where lush lawn and a gazebo with timber deck creates an excellent space for outdoor entertaining and children’s play.
The main bedroom is generously proportioned and highly practical, offering built in robes as well as a spacious walk-in robe. Concealed beneath is a unique cellar with LED lighting, while the private ensuite beyond includes an oversized walk-in shower. Additional accommodation offers flexibility for families at every stage, each featuring curtains and blinds and bespoke storage.
Designed for everyday functionality, the main bathroom includes a freestanding bathtub, separate glass shower and generous vanity. Adjacent is a spacious laundry with extensive cabinetry, bench space, indoor clothesline and direct access to the outdoor clothesline.
Enjoy a premium location just moments from parklands, local shopping and everyday conveniences, with easy access to the CBD and a selection of highly regarded schools nearby.
