SOLD BY JASON MILLS
Step beyond the traditional facade and the home's original character unfolds beautifully. Timber floors, high ceilings and sash windows bring warmth and authenticity, while the formal lounge at the front retains its original fireplace and offers an elegant retreat away from the main living spaces. It's a home where the old hasn't simply been preserved; it's been given room to shine.
At the rear, the mood shifts dramatically. A soaring cathedral ceiling, full-height glazing and polished concrete floors define the contemporary extension, flooding the space with natural light and creating a spectacular everyday living zone. A fireplace brings warmth and intimacy when the weather cools, while French doors open wide to the covered alfresco area, allowing indoors and out to become one generous, versatile space for long lunches, dinner parties and relaxed weekends at home. A brand-new, large-capacity ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning system, ensures the home remains comfortable throughout the seasons.
The kitchen sits confidently at the centre of it all. A beautiful skylight draws light from above, while two-tone cabinetry, stone benchtops, excellent storage and a generous breakfast bar deliver a refined but highly functional workspace overlooking the dining area. Whether it's coffee before the morning rush or a kitchen full of friends on Saturday night, it's designed for the way people actually live.
Four bedrooms are positioned across the ground floor, including a generous master suite with walk-through robe and private ensuite. An additional upstairs bedroom adds welcome flexibility for guests, teenagers or extended family, while a separate office at the rear provides a dedicated space to work from home without encroaching on everyday living.
Even the practicalities have been thoughtfully resolved. A double garage provides the rare luxury of secure off-street parking, while the home's compact, easy-care backyard keeps maintenance to a minimum without compromising on outdoor entertaining. The covered alfresco creates a natural space for relaxed gatherings, and a gated laneway leads to Richard's Park, approximately a two-minute stroll away, with its playground and generous open space, offering an ideal extension of the home's outdoor lifestyle for families.
And that's really where this address comes into its own. Walk to The Parade for morning coffee, dinner, drinks or a movie; catch a game at Norwood Oval; wander to the Magill Road precinct or enjoy having Norwood Primary School close by. The CBD is minutes away, yet Vernon Street itself feels quietly removed from the action.
Beautifully historic, confidently contemporary and unmistakably Norwood, this is a home designed for those who want character without compromise, effortless modern living and a lifestyle that extends well beyond the front gate.
