Tucked quietly into a peaceful pocket of its petite city-fringe suburb, this symmetrical Bluestone abode pairs its time-honoured c1900 charm with an inspired architectural rear addition that makes beautiful use of a uniquely shaped parcel on the doorstep of Goodwood's emerging bar and cafe scene.
Four equally spacious main rooms make up an original cottage headlined by its soaring pressed metal ceilings, pine floors, colourful leadlight and the choice between a fourth bedroom or extra living zone, all flowing to a light-filled, far-reaching open-plan addition with a starring kitchen and effortless spill outdoors.
The result is a solar-powered, Tesla battery-backed home that will welcome growing families and downsizers with the same gusto, just six minutes from Adelaide's CBD. Settle in.
Open the Door to:
⁃ A c1900 symmetrical bluestone cottage reimagined with rare finesse on a uniquely shaped 434sqm allotment
⁃ Four generous original rooms at the front, giving the floorplan genuine flexibility as a three-bedroom home with a second sitting room, or four bedrooms when life calls for more
⁃ An architectural rear extension with skylights, garden views and a gas log fire
⁃ A bespoke Alby Turner kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops, matte black accents, breakfast bar, walk-in pantry, integrated dishwasher and a 900mm Belling vintage-style cooker
⁃ A main bedroom with a walk-in robe and sleek ensuite wrapped in floor-to-ceiling tiling and provincial styling
⁃ Two additional bedrooms with pressed metal ceilings, plantation shutters and built-in robes
⁃ A luxe main bathroom with black hex floor tiles, subway wall tiling, frameless shower, bath and Caesarstone-topped vanity
⁃ Baltic pine, engineered timber and soft carpets underfoot
⁃ Decked outdoor zones that create two clear moments to entertain; one spilling directly from the living room and another tucked into the manicured rear garden
⁃ Side-by-side off-street parking for two cars between an automatic gate and secure garage
⁃ A 6.6kW solar system, Tesla battery, two ducted reverse-cycle systems, gas instant hot water, LED lighting and monitored security
⁃ Automatic watering to the front and rear gardens
Close the Door on:
⁃ Compromising between character and comfort. This one keeps the c1900 soul and adds the rear extension, ensuite, storage, solar and battery to match modern life
⁃ A floorplan that locks buyers into one version of living. Three bedrooms and a sitting room, or four bedrooms, keeps the home flexible
⁃ Running a beautiful old home like it still belongs to 1900. Solar, Tesla battery, ducted climate control, security and instant gas hot water bring it firmly forward
Forestville puts the best of the inner south on a short leash, with Goodwood Road's cafes, small bars, grocers and eateries close by, King William Road moments beyond, and tram, train and bus links making the CBD, coast and universities easy from every angle. With St Thomas School, Goodwood Primary and the Adelaide Showground precinct all nearby, it's a rare city-fringe pocket that feels connected, established and quietly complete.
