147 Kermode Street, North Adelaide, SA 5006

BEST OFFERS BY TUESDAY 6 OCTOBER AT 11AM (UNLESS SOLD PRIOR).

A rare opportunity to secure an historic single fronted sandstone terrace with an exceptional position just steps from the iconic grounds of Adelaide Oval. Embraced by a tranquil private garden, its elegant and captivating interior has been beautifully extended to create a haven of peace in this vibrant and bustling lifestyle precinct.

Nestled behind a high wall and north facing courtyard garden, the house has retained its picturesque Victorian architectural details, with a pretty lace bound veranda, hand painted glass surrounds the front door and balcony outside and resplendent decorative embellishment inside.

Overlooking the glorious north facing courtyard garden, formal living and a study/dining room are linked, providing a calm space in which to soak up the winter sun, or form one large reception room for guests.

From the arched hallway past a grand staircase, contemporary open plan living delivers quiet luxury. Warmed by a gas fire, informal living steps down to the all-white kitchen with a long central island around which to gather, parquetry floors and informal dining beyond.

Full height windows and French doors cleverly capture light from every aspect, and gaze over and open out to a private side driveway entrance, rear wisteria bound dining terrace and easy care landscaped garden.

Upstairs, the large master suite boasts its own north facing balcony, walk-in robe and ensuite. Two generous bedrooms that share a bathroom include the rear bedroom with views across Adelaide oval towards the city.

Of very special mention is the cellar. Whilst there is room for storage and wine, the current owners have created one of the most enchanting and whimsical spaces straight out of the pages of Narnia, that will capture the heart and imagination of all ages.

The unique position of this property cannot be understated. Surrounded by some of Adelaide's most prestigious and historically significant properties, first class football, cricket and tennis are literally on the doorstep, whilst the CBD, North Adelaide Golf Course, Torrens River precinct, Festival Centre, cultural and arts hubs are a leisurely stroll away.
