In a suburb that offers one beautiful character home after another, this double-fronted bluestone cottage will be sure to leave a lasting impression. Jam-packed with features and all wrapped up in the highly sought after catchment for Glenunga International High School.

Sitting pretty and securely behind a white picket fence, the charming bluestone facade of this circa 1890 symmetrical cottage is a worthy introduction to the stylish, light-filled interior that lies within.

Character features, such as soaring decorative ceilings and ornate fireplaces are perfectly preserved and cleverly blended with modern updates, including plantation shutters throughout.

A long central hallway adorned with timber flooring leads you past four double bedrooms, the master well-equipped with walk-in robe and ensuite, and all with ducted reverse cycle air conditioning for year round comfort.

Delve deeper to discover your entertaining mecca; where cooking, dining and living come together seamlessly in a glorious light-filled extension, opening out to a picturesque garden - making entertaining a breeze and offering a party capacity of upwards of 100.

In keeping with the charming character of the home, the wet areas feature traditional tessellated tiles and the main bathroom is headlined by a classic, freestanding clawfoot bathtub to fill with bubbles and sink into after a busy day.

For the families; as well as providing a lovely lush green backdrop, the North facing rear yard offers plenty of space for children and pets to play and soak up the afternoon sun. You are also surrounded by great schooling options from early learning, right through to high school.

For the foodies; a short stroll to the end of the street finds you at Goodwood Road where you are spoiled for choice with great places to eat for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner and dessert. The boutique shopping and cafe culture of King William and Unley Road is also just minutes away.

A charming character home, set on a 589m2 block, fit for a growing family, in a fantastic neighbourhood - this home really is all the joys under the sun wrapped up into one!
