8 Airlie Avenue, Prospect, SA 5082

If your heart's set on acquiring a quintessentially South Australian character dwelling that's been modernised to offer 21st Century comfort and functionality, without compromising its classic looks, you've found your perfect match in 8 Airlie Avenue – a thoughtfully renovated and extended double-fronted sandstone villa on a leafy thoroughfare brimming with heritage homes.

An inspired design team clearly steered the reimagining of this elegant property because the stunning extension is not only invisible from the street, retaining the villa's charm, but the connection between old and new is seamless thanks to the continuation of lofty 3.6m ceilings and solid timber flooring.

With a robust four-square frontage delivering 4 bold bedrooms, all with open fireplaces, branching off a central hall with decorative archway, including the master with customised WIR and full-height tiled bathroom, as well as a sparkling family bathroom with its own marble vanity and a relaxing bath complete customary grandeur.

On the extension's lower level, original dark-stained pine floorboards are exchanged for the rich tones of oak, while natural light pours across the lounge through a big bay window with bench seating. Embracing one breathtaking entertaining space, the adjacent dining area opens onto a covered alfresco patio with sweeping built-in BBQ kitchenette, while the home's gourmet chef's zone has had no expense spared in its creation with sleek stone benchtops, moulded cabinetry, and selection of high-end European appliances.

Backyard bliss is achieved with established Magnolias, lush lawns, and blue-sky views inviting memory-making kid and pet-friendly play, while a tiptoe upstairs sees a plush-carpeted teen/guest retreat with spacious lounge, well-sized bedroom, and crisp modern bathroom. Together with a long-list of inclusions and meticulously refurbed care, 8 Airlie Avenue is a flawless residence of character-inspired brilliance.

From this prestige location, Prospect's village-like vibes are easily reached, including hip bars, tasty dining spots, the cinema, boutique fashion outlets and big-name supermarkets. Likewise, it's an effortless amble around the corner to catch a bus to Blackfriars and on into town. If you want it all, you can have it here!
