Beautifully positioned in the heart of Maylands, this captivating sandstone villa offers an exceptional blend of period character, generous family accommodation and relaxed contemporary living, all embraced by beautifully established gardens.
Behind its handsome sandstone façade and traditional picket fence, the home reveals a wonderfully inviting interior, where the elegance and craftsmanship of its original architecture have been thoughtfully preserved and complemented by a striking extension designed for modern family life.
The original villa is rich in character, with soaring ceilings, ornate fireplaces, decorative cornices, polished timber floors and traditional timber shutters creating an atmosphere of warmth and understated refinement.
A gracious central entrance introduces the beautifully proportioned principal rooms, including generous bedrooms and an elegant formal sitting room, providing a welcome sense of space and separation from the more informal family living areas.
At the rear of the residence, a remarkable transformation unfolds.
A magnificent open-plan kitchen and family room forms the heart of the home, distinguished by its soaring cathedral ceiling, exposed white timber trusses, beautifully solid textured walls and an abundance of natural light.
The thoughtfully appointed kitchen combines timeless country styling with everyday practicality, featuring timber benchtops, marble finishes, generous cabinetry and a substantial central island. Overlooking the dining and living areas, it is a welcoming space equally suited to quiet family mornings and entertaining on a larger scale.
French doors open to the delightful rear gardens, where extensive brick paving, a vine-covered pergola and established greenery create a series of intimate outdoor spaces for dining, entertaining and relaxation.
Beyond, an inviting expanse of lawn is framed by mature trees, flowering garden beds and productive fruit trees, providing a peaceful and private setting for children to play and families to enjoy throughout the seasons.
The accommodation is further enhanced by a charming upper-level loft bedroom, a versatile fourth bedroom, a beautifully appointed family bathroom, separate laundry and the delightful addition of a traditional cellar.
Practical conveniences include valuable off-street parking, a substantial covered carport and additional storage.
The location is equally appealing.
Set within the leafy, tightly held surrounds of Maylands, the home enjoys the charm and tranquillity of one of Adelaide's most desirable inner-eastern neighbourhoods. Beautiful local reserves, including nearby Maurice Clayton Reserve, complement the convenience of excellent shopping, cafés, schools and the vibrant attractions of The Parade and surrounding eastern suburbs.
With the Adelaide city centre only a short distance away, this is an address offering the rare combination of established residential charm and exceptional everyday convenience.
