22 Lansdowne Terrace, Walkerville, SA 5081

Circa 1890’s Charm with the spaciousness of a four bedroom family home
Walkerville still retains its village feel. The people are friendly. On an early morning walk you pass with a polite good morning. The avenues are wide and lined with Jacarandas, Cedars and colourful Oleanders. You still know your neighbours by first name and meet at the gate for a chat. I should know I’ve lived in Walkerville for over 25 years.

Walkerville is approximately 6 kilometers to North Terrace. The Torrens Linear Park is at the eastern end of Lansdowne Terrace and from there you can walk or ride to the city and Adelaide University.
Many of Adelaide’s best private and public schools are only minutes away by car. You can enjoy shopping in Melbourne Street, a coffee at the Stephen Terrace bakery and the city is your local shopping centre.

22 Lansdowne Terrace is a classic cottage which over the last 120 years or so has changed and expanded to meet the needs of the families who have lived there.
Overlooking a small park where generations of children have flown kites and played French cricket.
The cottage oozes charm with its brick quoins, sandstone façade, bay window, and bull nose verandah with tesselated terra cotta tile base. The double fronted cottage façade is however deceptive. The central hall with polished pine floor boards leads past two double bedrooms to a formal sitting room with ornate open fire place and a small wine cellar. A wide arch opens up the adjoining formal dining room which has been used as a fifth bedroom. A more recent rear addition features a family room with a casual dining area, a Blackwood kitchen, a huge third bedroom and fourth bedroom or study.
The large rear entertaining area wraps around the cottage and adjoins the undercover parking which readily accommodates four cars or 50 family and friends when entertaining.
The colourful rear garden attracts native birds including honey eaters and even the occasional duck.
The gazebo to the side of the garden is a relaxed meditative area where you can read a favourite book. In the rear corner of the garden is a workshop and an undercover area for the boat or trailer.

Special features include parquetry flooring in the family / dining area, evaporative air conditioning, gas heating, remote control garage door and insulation throughout.
