An epitome of character living harmoniously blended with modern features

Nestled in the heart of Goodwood, this stunning stone cottage is a perfect blend of historic charm and modern luxury. Recently extended on a generous 766 sqm allotment, this home offers prime inner-city living in one of Adelaide's most coveted locations.

With the CBD just a 5-minute drive away, and just a short walk to both bus and tram stops, commuting is a breeze.

The guest bedroom option comes with an adjacent 2-way full bathroom, while a separate powder room caters for guests. The master bedroom suite is a haven of tranquility, with French doors opening onto a paved internal courtyard. Here, an intelligent Vergola shade system allows you to enjoy a morning coffee or on peaceful summer nights, or close the roof for protection in any weather. The master suite also features a walk-in robe and a large ensuite with a luxury rain shower head and his and hers vanity.
