This is a one of a kind residential conversion that is not to be missed!
Once a group of neighbourhood shopfronts hidden in St Marys, it is now a stunning residence.
The home itself is a combination of highlights, the most notable is the master suite - an expansive retreat, complete with ensuite, walk in robe and private courtyard. Cavernous ceilings and excellent natural light make it a perfect place to wake up in the morning, spend an afternoon relaxing, or just an evening away from it all.
For someone looking to work from home, the master suite may also be the perfect home office or showroom, with separate street access and a perfect branding opportunity (stcc).
The industrial design influence is strong in the open plan living area - painted concrete flooring and mixed materials in fixtures and fittings are a brilliant blend, while a modern kitchen is the centrepiece of the room that overlooks the expansive dining, lounge and outdoor decking/entertaining area. The "one of a kind" light fittings, floor coverings and overall design are just a few of the must see elements of the room.
The abundance of natural light is impressive as you move from room to room, and bedrooms 2 and 3 are no exception. The original shopfront windows are in brilliant guise in a residential setting, effectively providing floor to ceiling glass and a vibrancy near impossible to recreate.
The personality of the home extends outside where concrete and timber decking combine to offer a stunning setting day or night - adjacent to the open plan living it is the perfect place for entertaining.
It is simply easy to fall in love with the aesthetics of the home, even easier with the knowledge it has been built to last. The conversion began in 2009 and incorporated brand new plumbing, wiring, roofing and guttering to ensure minimal maintenance in the years to come.
Modern conveniences are also in abundance - a double width carport provides secure undercover parking while a further two car spaces are available off street.
No less than three huge parks are within a 5 min walk as well as the Pasadena shopping centre, Tonsley precinct and Flinders Hospital and university just a short drive away, and of course only 8km from the Adelaide CBD.
A quaint courtyard at the rear of the home provides another peaceful getaway, as well as access to a toolshed and chook pen for those so inclined.
