This newly renovated family home has captured national attention this week for its traditional sandstone front masking the modern makeover inside.

Located in Trinity Gardens, South Australia, this family home was the most viewed listing on realestate.com.au this week.

Selling agent Steve Alexander said the current owners have produced a home that incorporates “artist flair, building know-how and enthusiasm for interior design”.

“The vibrant and eclectic mix of old and new is perfectly reflected in their design choices, merging the original character of this 1925 built home with a 2021 extension and renovation,” Alexander said.

“This home has to be seen in person to truly appreciate its unique and distinctive features.”

The single story home has four large bedrooms, the main with a walk in robe and ensuite with underfloor heating.

“The home's modern family bathroom services the remainder of the home and is a work of art in itself,” Alexander said.

“Adjacent to the rear living space is the home's clever study area, expansive chef's kitchen with open shelving, island bench, butler's pantry and quality appliances.”

The extension at the back of the home has high ceilings, timber floors, glass stacker doors, a fireplace and an abundance of natural light.

“Stepping out onto the gorgeous rear deck and pergola with pull-down retractable blinds, decorative pendant lighting and a separate outdoor kitchen with built-in bbq and overhead all-weather canopy,” Alexander said.

“The garden is generous and includes a side by side fully lined garage and office which sits amongst the fully mature and established garden.”

Located just a 12 minute drive from the Adelaide City Centre, Trinity Gardens is a sought after location for families.
