Boasting a sunny north-facing rear aspect, this generous full stone home on 975m2 has a sense of comfort and liveability that has clearly been layered over time.
Our vendors are only the second family to have owned it since it was built in 1910.
In eight years of living here, they have replaced the roof, put in top quality insulation, polished the floorboards, repainted, renovated the bathroom and fitted out the cellar, now a shining repository for 1000 bottles of your best vintage!
The location is fantastic, with cafes, specialty food shops and buses around the corner on Duthy Street, yet just far enough away so you don't hear the traffic.
You can also walk to the buzz of Unley Road and there are plenty of good schools in the area including St John's Lutheran and an early learning centre at Unley Park.
Whether your style is contemporary or conventional, you'll find plenty to inspire in this gorgeous old home's lovely wide hallway and handsomely-proportioned rooms that dazzle with jewelled leadlight, high Victorian ceilings, beautiful original fireplaces and, of course, those highly-prized polished timber floors.
Spread out, relax and entertain in three separate living areas.
There's a lovely big lounge, equally suited to formal dining, with a butler's pantry that can be set up as a bar.
Just steps away, a large eat-in kitchen offers modern appliances and a fantastic walk-in pantry while, at the rear, a glass-wrapped family room featuring ceramic tiling is extended by a sizeable vestibule with trap-door access to the cellar and a fan-forced slow combustion stove that heats the whole back area.
Each has french doors leading outside to the gorgeous gardens surrounding the home and, in the case of the kitchen, to a sensational entertaining pergola with mains gas for carefree barbecuing.
Four double bedrooms include the lovely master featuring a spacious dressing room with his and hers timber built-ins and ensuite access to the full family bathroom, with marble tiling and underfloor heating for that extra touch of luxury.
French doors open to a wide side garden, (about a double driveway width), suggesting potential for a private ensuite STCC.
On the other side of the house, another bedroom has direct access to the auto tandem carport, lending itself to use as a home office and there is a second toilet off the family room at the rear, also accessible from the large lawned backyard where children will love to play.
Complete with ducted evaporative cooling and gas heating, ceiling fans, temperature-controlled instant gas hot water, security alarm and video intercom; this wonderful family home is all easy-living charm.
It's one you won't want to miss!
