A 12-minute walk. That's it between you and Rundle Street's buzz, with the prestigious St. Peter's College grounds over your shoulder, the Botanic Gardens ahead, the university precinct a short walk away, and the city in the palm of your hands. Talk about fringe benefits. Today, the 3-bedroom freestanding villa - vibrant in white against its leafy streetscape and restored to far better than former glory - combines history, charm, and modern living beautifully for the astute investor, professional, or young family. From the tessellated tiled bullnose verandah, through the leadlight entrance, central hallway with ornate arch, and 3 double bedrooms upon entry, the home's gleaming renewal allows its timber floorboards, 3.5m* ceilings, and ceiling roses to shine… Bedrooms 2, 3, the living room, and ensuing new kitchen bathe in the northerly sun, the spacious central living room fronted by a rustic open fire and comforted by a split system. The casual meals area conceals a cellar; the adjoining shaker-style kitchen is wrapped in crisp sage-tiled splash backs against waterfall Caesarstone benchtops and white, soft-closing joinery that includes a pull-out pantry. Designed to incorporate a bijou laundry, the new fully tiled bathroom is a clever, chic, and fitting finale to the villa's rebirth against a big backyard, unfathomable this close to town… And it comes to you through glazed stacker doors for nights in that enjoy a paved alfresco pergola, a sprawl of irrigated lawns and bordering ornamentals, with rear lane access to steer the car safely behind backyard double gates. On the city's historic north-eastern edge, moments to Norwood Parade, Prince Alfred College, and the Mad March flamboyance that brings Adelaide alive, discover the city's prettiest new perk… More reasons it's special: - Stunningly renovated, freestanding c1908 Edwardian villa with sandstone façade - 438sqm (approx) including rear-laneway^ - 3.5m* ceilings to main rooms - New shaker style kitchen with waterfall Caesarstone tops - New fully tiled bathroom/laundry - Under floor cellar to casual meals - Auto irrigation to newly landscaped front & rear gardens - Adjacent to prestigious St. Peters College - Minutes to Prince Alfred College - Zoned to coveted Adelaide & Adelaide Botanic High Schools - Walk to the university precinct - Bus access via Hackney Road or North Terrace - Valuable and rare off-street parking via rear-lane - Located in a tightly held and an irreplaceable pocket of prestigious character homes Specifications Title: Torrens Titled Year built: c1908 Land size: 438sqm (approx) including rear-laneway^ Council: City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters Council rates: $1,470.31pa (approx) SA Water & Sewer supply: $194pq (approx) ESL: $161.35pa (approx) *Measurements approx. ^Refer certificate of title and site plan for clarity All information provided including, but not limited to, the property's land size, floorplan, floor size, building age and general property description has been obtained from sources deemed reliable.
