If there were ever the perfect opportunity to take a piece of North Adelaide history and make it your own, this c1880 heritage cottage is it on the highly sought after doorstep of buzzing O’Connell Street.

With its symmetrical footprint comes up to four equally large bedrooms – three if you want to use one as an extra living space. Work from home? Another room at the rear will oblige.

Its flexibility is matched by the charm of its bluestone facade, high ceilings, leadlight and ornate fireplaces.

Bundles of natural light shine a spot not only on its freshly painted interior, but the obvious potential to enhance this neatly presented home – adding value in the process.

There is no rush because the things that matter are in fine working order, including the solid timber kitchen with a dishwasher, gas cooking, loads of storage and a connection to the adjacent living zone.

Knowing full well you value your spare time, the rear courtyard is wonderfully easy to maintain and offers the bonus of a covered place to relax in the warmer months.

It’s ‘Mad March’ and this astute buy is a jiffy away from the city’s east end and even closer to Adelaide Oval and the beautiful banks of the Torrens. Perfect, indeed.
