Move here and you’ll soon be a regular at Joe’s kiosk, sipping your latte in the morning sun after a dip in the ocean or a gentle stroll along the beach. The leisurely walk home takes all of two minutes or six from the buzz of Henley Square, with its perpetual holiday atmosphere and vibrant mix of cafes serving palate pleasers from around the world.

Home is a cute-as single-fronted cottage tucked away behind a high street wall where you’ll fall in love with polished timber floors, pretty leadlight, open fireplaces and an infusion of north-facing light.

First up, there’s a lovely large lounge with an adorable mini wood-burning stove, all charm and affability; followed by two double bedrooms. Sleep in the one with built-ins and use the other as a study or guest room, with a lovely large combined bathroom/laundry to meet all your washing needs!

Skylights bring in extra sunshine to the long hallway, making it a perfect gallery space. Beyond, a simple laminate kitchen with European stainless steel appliances and a high timber-capped privacy bar overlooks the terracotta-tiled family room, so you’ll always be part of the fun.

Whether relaxing or entertaining, you’ll love this inclusive open-plan space, with its easy access to the cellar and french doors opening to paved courtyard privacy and a deep shade-cloth covered pergola for long leisurely barbecues out of the glare of the sun or under the stars.

Complete with ducted evaporative cooling and under-cover parking at the end of a shared driveway; this pearl of a seaside home, just steps from Adelaide’s most vibrant beach culture, offers its lucky new owner a seriously ‘cool’ change. We wish we had more like it!

This stand-alone strata-titled home is very lovable and is only being sold to finalise an estate.
