Situated on what has to be Norwood's finest treelined boulevard, this historic symmetrical sandstone villa has been given a sensational architectural makeover that unites enchanting heritage elements with relaxed contemporary luxury. Wow-factor living and entertaining zones, beautifully curated interiors, and an outstanding lifestyle location make this the perfect family home. Built in 1863, the house bears all the hallmarks of early South Australian Victorian design, with the picturesque façade including paned windows, patterned sandstone quoins, slate roof and concave wrap-around veranda. Inside, a long central hallway with polished boards and a high pressed metal ceiling reaches towards extended open plan living. Three spacious bedrooms include built-in robes, with the chic master bedroom adorned with a vintage French basket chandelier and fireplace. Through a walk-in robe is a designer ensuite with under floor heating, that cleverly incorporates an original external wall into its high-end contemporary design. Upstairs, a versatile fourth bedroom with an ensuite is perfect for teens or guests, or as a kids' retreat or creative space. The indulgent, main bathroom boasts heated floors, a luxuriant stone soaking tub, and an iridescent blade wall concealing the shower and WC. A guest powder room incorporates an original stone wall beautifully offset by contemporary elements including a concrete floor, and designer tiles and fittings. Sub-floor heated polished concrete floors also underpin the spectacular open plan living extension. Living zones are cleverly delineated but linked to form the ultimate expanse for everyday family enjoyment and flexible entertaining. Old red brick walls, long arched vintage windows, double glazed steel doors and windows, and soaring ceilings provide an eclectic, almost industrial chic vibe. As functional as it is cool, the designer kitchen sits beside casual meals, and hosts a range of European appliances, a hidden storage cupboard, a wrap-around Caesarstone countertop and a servery window to outside. A secret door conceals a walk-in pantry with a fridge, sink and filtered and sparkling water tap and adjacent sundrenched laundry with external access. Additional storage space can be found in the large original cellar Antique sliding doors reveal a second living room with French doors that spill out to a secluded paved courtyard. In addition, a large home office with a built-in workstation and cabinetry provides a private space in which to work from home or be creative. Expansive casual living extends through steel bifolds to the outdoor living areas, creating one large entertaining space. Outside is a glorious private tree lined sanctuary in which to relax or entertain. At its centre, a wisteria clad dining pavilion with remote controlled heater, ceiling fan and speakers. To one side, a lush lawn and veranda with a place to perch for a morning cuppa. To the other, extended sandstone paving creates a large and versatile entertaining area with a fabulous outdoor fireplace for warmth and ambience. To the rear, a concealed garden shed, utility area and valuable rear lane access. With nothing left to do, this very special character home is the perfect blend of old and new, with a vibrant lifestyle position near to high end boutiques, destination shopping, restaurants, cafes, schools, parks and the city.
