12 Hilda Terrace, Hawthorn, SA 5062

Bursting with original features, this quintessential Art Deco home on 715sqm is peacefully tucked away in a gorgeous Jacaranda-lined street while only a hop, skip and jump to trendy King William Road, Heywood Park and a selection of excellent local schools.

Offered in immaculate condition with four double bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms, it is all set for immediate family occupation, while still offering exciting potential for further minor upgrades and future additions.

The deep entry porch is the gateway to the character-infused interior where dazzling leadlight, exquisite Art Deco ceilings and freshly polished Kauri Pine floors sustain a quality vintage vibe.

Ceiling heights enlarge the well-proportioned rooms and diffuse light from the home's double sash windows. During the day, a continuously changing geometry of light and shadow dances through the leaded double entry doors and the sliding versions that separate the handsome formal rooms, where a gas fire churns out heat from a robust fireplace. Delicate chandeliers enhance the elegance of these spaces, while the hallway's confection of brass and pressed amber glass recalls the forties era of fashion.

Past a huge bank of storage and the main bathroom is a fun and well-preserved time capsule in yellow and sea green, with a shower over the bath. A shower room is also provided off a large laundry at the rear.

Here too is the contemporary modern white kitchen, featuring plenty of storage including a double-sided bar with a dishwasher, an appliance hutch, large in-cupboard pantry and Kleenmaid/St George cooking appliances. Laminate timber-look flooring flows through to the adjacent breakfast area overlooking the backyard while, off to one side, is a fourth bedroom that is ideal as a cosy family room or study.

Outside, the generous backyard offers extended living and entertaining options beneath an all-weather pergola and, beyond, a mature Camphor Laurel provides valuable shade; with mass plantings of strappy, water-wise foliage plants supplying definition to a generous area of lawn.

Complete with heating and cooling, a monitored security system, attached auto garage with remote-operated alarm, garden shed; dripper watering, rainwater storage and a freshly coordinated colour scheme, this special family home is a rare find. Just move in and enjoy!
