Savvy renovations create a charming combination of decorative heritage detail, and modern functionality in this beautifully presented Torrens titled maisonette on a generous 365m2 block. A rare offering, this is one of only a few maisonettes this size in Kilkenny. It has full construction approval to turn it into a three-bedroom, two-bathroom property while still having yard space to spare.
The flowing floorplan comprises a formal lounge upon entry, a spacious eat-in kitchen, two oversize bedrooms, the main with custom-built, floor-to-ceiling robes, and a freshly renovated, retro-style bathroom with a separate bath and shower and separate toilet. A built-in laundry room with lots of storage and a study space at the rear complete the layout.
The home has been thoughtfully renovated to seamlessly blend contemporary inclusions with 1920s heritage features, including a restored cast iron fascia gas fireplace, soaring 3.2-metre ceilings with ornate ceiling roses, and polished pine floors. The modern kitchen, with beautiful Caesarstone benchtops, is fully equipped with a gas stove, under-bench oven, and dishwasher. A full walk-in pantry provides plenty of kitchen storage.
Parking is not a problem, with space for two cars in the carport and two more in the drive. Gated side access allows you to securely park a caravan, boat, or trailer. Additional features include skylights that let in an abundance of natural light, feature pendant lighting, gas hot water, cooking, and heating, reverse cycle air conditioning, and ample storage, including a garden shed.
From the attractive street frontage, with its cottage-style garden, picket fence, and cute porch, to the lush yet easy-care gardens at the back, you know this is a home that has been cherished. The Mediterranean-inspired pergola, with beautiful draping bougainvillea, is the perfect spot to entertain friends or sit back and relax with a coffee while you watch the kids run around on the lawn. Established fruit trees, including fig, lemon, mandarin, mulberry, feijoa, passionfruit and olives, as well as raised garden beds, provide a cornucopia of homegrown produce.
Ideally located in a quiet, friendly street and offering a great lifestyle, this property is close to a selection of quality schools, Arndale shops, the Queen Street café strip, and the renowned MJ McInerny Reserve. You're also a short walk to the train station that will see you in the city in just 8 minutes, or you could take an enjoyable 20-minute bike ride to the CBD along the Greenway bike lane, through Bowden and the popular Plant4 precinct. Halfway between the city and the beach, you're well-placed to enjoy everything Adelaide offers.
