5 Mizpah Avenue, Unley, SA 5061

Passionate renovators with a fresh vision saw the potential in this 1905 sandstone symmetrical cottage and today its been totally transformed into an inviting home.

Step behind the classic picket fence and discover the harmony that exists between the cottage and the fabulous new section of the home.

Distinctive architectural characteristics of the era feature prominently with polished timber floors, pretty leadlight windows lofty ornate ceilings, picture rails and fireplaces with decorative mantles.

Three huge double sized bedrooms, two with built-in robes and the master bedroom offers French doors leading to the north facing courtyard garden. Bedroom 3 offers access to the substantial attic which is a large area with shelving for loads of storage.

The formal sitting room is located in the original section of the home and this space could be utilised as an extra bedroom or dining room if preferred.

Reverse cycle split inverter air conditioning system with two units ensures comfortable temperatures all year round for the original section of the home.

The new section of the home is radiant with natural sunlight filtering through floor to ceiling windows and French doors.

A relaxed contemporary style is on offer with an expansive designer kitchen, casual dining and family room. Neutral tones with the kitchen cabinetry and an abundance of storage space is prominent. Tall jarrah benchtops, Miele dishwasher, electric Chef oven and a gas Bosch cooktop with a wok burner.

The extension was cleverly created to capitalise on the natural energy from the sun and provide ambient warmth during the winter. This aspect is really enjoyed in the family room so the sun heats the polished concrete flooring although a Masport gas log fire keeps the area lovely and cosy during the cooler evenings.

Glamorous 5 star hotel style fully tiled bathroom has a double vanity and large shower alcove. The grey water from the bath can be utilised directly to irrigate the lawns. Water collected in a bucket from the shower can be emptied straight into the bath -save your back. Energy efficient and green!

A great use of space in the tidy and compact laundry, again with ample storage space. The second bathroom is accessed from the laundry.

Interactive indoor-outdoor entertaining extends from the family room to the vine covered paved area. The low maintenance courtyard garden of 445m2 is very neatly landscaped so weekend hours can be spent relaxing rather than weeding and pruning. An enviable lifestyle in today's busy world.

A service courtyard offers a cleverly contained storage area behind locking roller doors and also provides extra space for the secure storage of bikes and the like.

This great home is genuinely located between the close proximity of cosmopolitan King William and just a stone's throw to the Unley Shopping Centre. Another fabulous bonus to complete the picture.
