76 Stanley Street,
North Adelaide 5006, South Australia

Carefree cottage charm and chic lifestyle base. Live a life less ordinary in historically charming North Adelaide! This picture-perfect, 2 bedroom character Row Cottage (c1880) delivers contemporary grace and historic space on a beautiful tree lined boulevard in the very heart of this exclusive City-fringe precinct just steps from Melbourne Street.

Set behind handsome rendered brick and Victorian cast iron fencing and entry gate, and embraced by a classically graceful, bluestone facade with front verandah featuring iron lacework trim, the cottage's leadlight entrance reveals meticulously presented, single-level interiors merging period detail with modern enhancements.

Crowned by high ceilings with glossy Baltic pine floors underfoot, the home's heritage is immediately evident. Set at the front, the sitting room with original open fireplace book-ended by built-in cupboards, is a tranquil living space kept comfortable year round by the split-system air conditioner.

The updated kitchen (with a second split-system air conditioner) is illuminated by two uniquely decorative leadlight windows, features classic white cabinetry, and the island bench, stainless steel, elevated electric oven, grill, induction cooktop and rangehood, all provide culinary ease. From here, elegant arched walls introduce the dining room where double French doors open out to the very private, North-facing paved courtyard - providing a glorious sunny spot for alfresco moments, sunset aperitifs, and even room for a Weber Q.

A pair of double bedrooms are fitted with tall built-in robes, and the large modern bathroom flaunts a vanity with generous storage, plenty of bench space, a frameless glass walk-in shower, w.c. and laundry facilities.

Treasured by the owners for the past 24 years, the property also offers an off-street, single car park which is accessed from the rear lane, through an auto roller door into the back courtyard.

Sure to captivate owner-occupiers as a wonderful, low maintenance lock-up-and leave City-fringe base, this property is also an excellent investment and has enjoyed success as a highly-sought after airbnb.

The delights of Melbourne Street and the local Kentish Arms Hotel are on the doorstep. Just moments to North Adelaide Village's vibrant cafe culture, trendy restaurants, gourmet food stores, bakeries, shops and Piccadilly Cinema with its stunning art deco bar. Surrounded by parklands, it's an easy stroll to all the City attractions including Botanic Gardens, Zoo and Adelaide Oval ... or catch the free City-loop bus.

With village vibes and all the perks, soak up the lifestyle and savour the surroundings, this is an exceptional entry into a boutique base by the City with easy access to everything you could want and more!
