Cosmopolitan living meets character charm on Charles.

Auction 10.30am Saturday 9th March

Looking for a home that brings the ultimate in balance? Chic yet grounded, this freestanding 1880 single fronted bluestone cottage on a low maintenance 301m2 allotment effortlessly fuses original integrity with a contemporary lifestyle in city fringe Forestville.

Offering two bedrooms, two living spaces and 1.5 bathrooms, enjoy classic features including large bedrooms, high ceilings, timber floors, grand fireplaces, and that charming cottage façade.

Behind a timeless white picket fence, porch and stone façade, enter the central hallway onto polished timber floors and take in a luxurious long hallway. To your left, two large bedrooms provide very comfortable sleeping quarters, with an A/C and character fireplace for the first, extensive built-in robes for the second, and plantation shutters to both.

Down the hall, the first lounge has that WOW-factor with a grand fireplace, French doors and picture windows.

Head through to the kitchen/dining, a fluid living space that's equal parts homely and surprisingly spacious. A refreshed kitchen includes a subway tiled splashback, quality stainless steel appliances including a gas cooktop and electric oven, and plenty of storage.

A second lounge takes shape between a character ceiling rose, more French doors and more plantation shutters, with wonderful flow to the west-facing deck, your scene for slow weekends and summer nights.

Protected under a pergola and enclosed, enjoy utter privacy to dine and recline, with an adjacent office adding to your floorplan practicality.

Below, a glorious garden is wrapped in good neighbour hedging, with a well-sized lawn and enough garden beds to keep your pets and any green thumbs happy.

Polished yet so warm and welcoming, this fabulous home is ready to provide its new inhabitants with a wonderful lifestyle in Forestville.

Embrace a plethora of café options within walking distance, from Dear Daisy and Our Boy Roy to Sublime Café, and Goodwood Road hotspots including Trouble and Strife, The Goody, Good Gilbert and the Capri Theatre.

Stay active with nearby facilities including Unley Swimming Centre, local tennis courts and numerous ovals and Forestville Reserve, and settle in to enjoy a fulfilling existence on Charles Street.
