23 Swaine Avenue, Rose Park, SA 5067

Found in one of the most tightly held and sought after city-fringe pockets, this C1900 Sandstone Villa has been refined to the point of perfection with an elegant remodel and a Pauline Hurren architectural extension.

Framed by secure front fencing, cottage rose gardens, a federation front porch and classic bullnose verandah, the beautiful streetscape accurately reflects the interior charm that follows…

Open fireplaces and decorative plasterwork add a delicate touch of character to four generous bedrooms under the original structure, cleverly updated to bestow the deserving masters a large walk-in robe and couple's ensuite.

Soaking up all the north-facing light under lofty ceilings, open plan living grants quarters for you to unwind and entertain with ease - anchored by a Smeg-appointed provincial style kitchen, adjoining dining and stained-glass bench seat that circles back to that divine turn-of-the-century character once again.

Capable of hosting Christmas lunch for the entire extended family, the pitched pergola with retractable blinds is poised to both enjoy the sunshine or keep out the winter breeze – a lovely space to host or just savour your summer BBQ dinners alfresco-style.

Providing plenty of space for both your family vehicles, hobby pursuits and storage, both the carport and garage are accessible behind roller doors from the rear lane - also offering stair access to a loft and insulated workshop.

Creating an admirable marriage of classic, contemporary and city-fringe status – this beautiful home has it all in spades…
