Effortlessly uniting timeless character with a polished modern edge, this impeccably refurbed c.1860s bluestone cottage redefines low-maintenance living in the most desirable city-fringe setting. Behind its storybook façade lies a home spilling with warmth and style, where on-trend floating timber floors, ambient LED downlights, and ducted AC strike the perfect balance of comfort and class to its timeless footings. <br/><br/>Stepping off Sydenham's iconic thoroughfare, discover a beautifully bright open-plan living and dining zone, anchored by a crisp modern kitchen that lets you cook with company or let loved ones gather and graze to fun-filled vino-inspired evenings. A sunny courtyard out back invites a slice of Vitamin D to your morning coffee routines, while the spacious double carport can equally double as an all-season alfresco space. <br/><br/>Back inside, 2 plush-carpeted bedrooms fitted with ceiling fans and BIRs promise restful retreats or a sweet home office for the hybrid professional, and serviced by a sparkling modern bathroom completing the revitalised yet practical interior. With lock-and-leave simplicity and modern feature comfort, there's nothing this understated stunner doesn't deliver. <br/>And when it comes to location, few can compete. Just a short stroll lands you on The Parade for an unbeatable café, dining, and boutique shopping experience, while local pubs and amenities are even closer (Louie's Deli, The Alma, Bath & Maid Hotels, One Sneaky Cheetah, Messina Gelato to name but a few). With the buzz of Rundle Street and the East End a quick wander away, your weekends can swing from lazy brunches to festival fever without ever needing the car. <br/><br/>FEATURES WE LOVE <br/>• Beautifully restored + refurbed c.1860s bluestone cottage seamlessly blending old-world charm with modern feature <br/>• Light-filled open-plan entertaining connecting the lounge, dining + stone-topped kitchen into one designer social hub <br/>• Ambient LED downlights, ducted AC + warm floating timber floors marrying character bones with a stylish modern aesthetic <br/>• 2 generous bedrooms, both enjoying plush carpets, ceiling fans + BIRs <br/>• Sparkling modern bathroom featuring full-height tiling, fresh finishes + adjoining Euro-style laundry <br/>• Low maintenance patio/courtyard, no-mow pet-friendly turf <br/>• Secure double garage with rear lane access <br/><br/>LOCATION <br/>• Exclusive inner-east location putting you walking distance to a litany of local cafés, pubs + popular casual restaurants <br/>• Around the corner from ALDI for easy access to all your shopping essentials <br/>• A brisk walk from the Parade Norwood's thriving cosmopolitan hub for more stellar culinary options, fashion boutiques + weekend entertainment <br/>• An astonishing 1.5km stroll to the East Terrace Parklands, where the iconic Rundle Street precinct + Rundle Mall shopping awaits <br/><br/>Disclaimer: As much as we aimed to have all details represented within this advertisement be true and correct, it is the buyer/ purchaser's responsibility to complete the correct due diligence while viewing and purchasing the property throughout the active campaign. <br/>Norwood RLA 278530 <br/><br/>Property Details:<br/>Council | NORWOOD PAYNEHAM & ST PETERS<br/>Zone | SB - Suburban Business<br/>House | 211sqm(Approx.)<br/>Built | 1860<br/>Council Rates | $1431.79 pa<br/>Water | $185.55 pq<br/>ESL | $144.35 pa
