Gather yourself, pick your jaw up from the ground and peer through the portholes of this one-of-a-kind C1956 home to see ‘modernist’ like few can across wider Adelaide, let alone the highly sought-after suburb it calls its own.

Painstakingly built one stone at a time by the only family that’s ever known it, this generous abode takes the silhouette of a Palm Springs classic and wraps it in earthy, Australiana tones and textures.

The extensive stonework, those round windows, its distinct double entry door, crazy-paved patio and low-pitched roof conspire to forge a first impression that scoffs at boring and stops passersby in their tracks.

The uniquely configured interior – which was extended along the way to include a semi self-contained rear retreat that could be divided into additional bedrooms – does its best work in the street-facing sitting room and adjacent kitchen.

With green laminate benchtops, custom cabinetry and glazed tiled splashbacks, the 1970s kitchen is so nostalgically vintage it will take a courageous soul to ever remove and replace it.

Parquetry hardwood floors, high ceilings and a feature brick fireplace only strengthen the quirky appeal of this solidly built home with a boundless backyard, extensive shedding, under-cover parking, and lovingly curated gardens.

A step back in time doesn’t mean you’re far from the modern conveniences you crave; whether it’s local schools , sporting ovals/reserves, Firle Plaza, The Parade and the CBD beyond. What a beauty.
