59 Elizabeth Street

Known affectionately as 'the house with the beautiful garden' by the locals, the delights of this beautifully renovated, semi-detached three-bedroom cottage in Norwood are not limited to the facade. A rustic brick pathway curves its way through a tapestry of foliage from the white picket fence gate towards a pretty, tessellated-style tiled verandah with an iconic 1900s paneled front door. Beyond the sturdy jarrah front doorstep lies a grand hallway of freshly polished baltic floorboards spanning almost the entire length of the original house. Your eyes will be drawn to the ornate woodwork archway as you wander past two airy master-size bedrooms with 12-foot ceilings, one with walk-in robe as well as direct access to the large, sparkling white two-way bathroom. Double doors open onto a third bedroom or formal lounge area boasting an exquisite tiled fireplace. The hallway delivers you to the very heart of the home, a stunning, generously proportioned open plan extension encompassing the kitchen, dining and family areas. You will adore living, cooking and entertaining friends and loved ones in this gorgeous light-filled space. But the best is still to come.... Imposing glass doors overlook a 'secret' garden that is the pride and joy of the garden designer owner which has been lovingly curated as a restful and enchanting retreat, offering a touch of paradise while enjoying dinner or an evening wine, entertaining friends, or simply pottering, savouring the peace these delightful surroundings bring. Fully underpinned before renovations began, this property has been thoughtfully restored throughout, marrying the past and present in perfect harmony. The leafy tree-lined Elizabeth Street address is within walking distance of all the buzz of The Parade, the quaint Dulwich Village, Victoria Park, the East End of the city and at Fringe time, 'The Garden of Unearthly Delights'. This gem of a property is one of those rare finds you'll simply fall in love with!
