28 Baker Street, Birkenhead, SA 5015

Petra Mells is proud to present this dream home that redefines family living in a friendly neighbourhood, located just minutes from the seaside suburb of Semaphore.

Extensively renovated and extended in 2023, this c1910 villa combines modern style with historical charm and includes a rumpus room/studio with a nice big shed and rear lane access on a low-maintenance, 436sqm (approx) allotment.

With sustainable living, energy saving and smart home technology being top of mind, this stunning home encapsulates all of that beautifully; double glazed cedar windows, extra insulation added underfloor and to external walls, solar with battery storage, established veggie patches and fruit trees, gas fire with ducting into bedrooms, DC ceiling fans and smart LED downlights, dimmable through Google, enhances the energy efficiency of the home.  

Offering a striking central hallway with 12ft ceilings and laminated timber floors, three generous bedrooms all with ceiling fans and ceiling roses, offer plenty of space to retreat to at the end of the day. The master bedroom is palatial and features an ornate fireplace with power and gas connection, stunning ensuite and generous walk in robe. 

The extension to the rear of the home offers the open plan layout that we all desire. Beautifully appointed kitchen with stone benchtops, quality appliances and a butlers pantry and light filled laundry. Entertaining will be a breeze in the spacious dining and living with gas log fire, huge cedar sliding stacker door that seamlessly leads to the paved outdoor entertaining with louvred pergola.
