3 Botanic Street, Hackney, SA 5069

A stroll from the Botanic Gardens that lends the street its name, this beautifully remodelled villa combines all the authentic heritage detailing we love with a striking contemporary extension to deliver up to five bedrooms across a floorplan built for both grand entertaining and everyday family life. Behind a repointed and ultra-secure facade, the generous rooms of the original home take shape under 3.5m ceilings, culminating in an elegant master complete with a modern couple's ensuite. Where the extension takes hold, high ceilings and heated polished concrete create a surprisingly spectacular continuation of such a grand character home. Its open-plan social heart is anchored by a sunlit studio and designer kitchen that threads it all together, Corian benchtops meeting quality Miele and Bosch appliances in a space built to take casual daily flow and full-scale entertaining in its stride. Stacking doors slide back to reveal an entertainer's dream, where a heated plunge pool sits beside both bench seating and alfresco dining, bridged by a composite deck designed for lounging in the sunshine. Valuable rear access conceals double garaging and yet another surprise addition, where an air-conditioned office or teen retreat comes complete with a bathroom and underground cellar. Positioned within walking distance of the East End's celebrated culture, with the CBD and Adelaide Oval's AFL action just a stroll away through the scenic gardens, this villa has been beautifully reborn to offer inner-city living with the rare room to breathe. Held by the same family for over 18 years, it's a scarce chance to secure a home so completely and confidently evolved...
