Auction Sat, 4th May - 10am (usp)
From the moment you see this C1900 symmetrical cottage glow with pride on its prized corner piece of tightly-held Hawthorn is the moment you sense something pretty special waits patiently at its rear; an inspired addition that oozes every bit of Pauline Hurren's architectural nous.
Rather than tack on something completely contrasting to the original cottage, Pauline paid the utmost respect by making the open-plan extension look and feel like it has always been there.
Astutely designed to face due north, the addition inhales bundles of natural light, gives a subtle wink to the 'Hamptons', draws your eye to the stone feature wall/fireplace, makes the provincial style kitchen the conversation starter and implores you to step through French doors and onto its partnering deck.
With a vintage-style Lecanche enamel oven, Carrara marble benchtops, integrated Liebherr fridge, Miele dishwasher and bundles of storage, that kitchen is nothing short of a supremely functional work of art in a home that allocates travertine to its gorgeous wet areas.
The main bedroom ensures one of those bathrooms is yours alone in an original home with four main rooms and a study that marks the transition to Pauline's creation by leaving the original exterior stone wall exposed.
A stroll from Mitcham Square and either a short drive or pedal from Scotch and Mercedes Colleges, Kingswood Oval, Unley High School, cosmopolitan Unley Road and the CBD itself; this is a special home in a pretty special locale. Don't let it go.
