House

Character Cottage with Modern Comfort
Pretty as a picture on arrival with its stunning freestone façade, bullnose verandah with tessellated tiling, and a bed of roses ready to spring into bloom, 154 Drayton Street boasts all the classic characteristics of Adelaide's beloved single-fronted cottages, and while the interior also hosts a wealth of original features – from fireplaces to timber floorboards – it has also been thoughtfully renovated and extended to ensure its residents have every contemporary comfort at their fingertips.

A familiar footprint for this iconic style sees 3 bedrooms, each with an open fireplace, branching one after the other off an arched hallway that opens into a stylishly updated modern kitchen/meals area with an adjacent living room. The entire back end has been artfully reimagined with the new kitchen sporting a
suite of stainless-steel mod cons, including a gas cooker and statement rangehood, the updated bathroom offering a tub, shower, WC and twin vanity – with a second WC in the next door laundry, and the living room opening through French-style double glass doors onto a rear verandah, the mirror image
of the one out front and overlooking a grassy yard and the double carport.

Bowden ticks all the boxes for buyers looking for that ideal west-side lifestyle: sensational city convenience, a neighbourly community vibe, awesome local amenities, and a short drive to the seaside for cooling summer dips! With its excellent proximity to city-bound public transport, safe bike routes into
town, local playgrounds and schooling, and vibrant modern social precincts brimming with bars, restaurants, cafes and fabulous fresh produce – 154 Drayton Street will surpass all your expectations.
