Blending timeless cottage charm with contemporary family living, 79 Penzance Street delivers a rare sense of flexibility, privacy, and garden-wrapped tranquility just moments from Adelaide's most loved coastline. Thoughtfully extended and beautifully balanced, this home unfolds as a series of considered spaces - each designed to adapt, connect, and retreat with effortless grace.
Centred around a sunlit courtyard, the residence is intelligently arranged across two distinct wings, offering exceptional versatility for modern family life. The original cottage forms one wing, where leadlight details, timber floors, and a classic fireplace honour its heritage. This can be utilised for a short-stay accommodation, functioning with a sense of independence that speaks to the home's inherent flexibility. A traditional verandah frontage and the separation provided by the central courtyard further enhance privacy between the two wings. Two generous bedrooms are complemented by a character-rich living room and a fully-tiled main bathroom, while a highly versatile laundry - complete with sink, storage, and rangehood, this space offers future potential as a work-from-home zone or even a secondary kitchen, ideal for Airbnb use.
Across the courtyard, the contemporary extension introduces light-filled open-plan living and dining, anchored by a well-appointed kitchen. Here, French doors open to a paved, undercover alfresco, creating a refined setting for year-round entertaining before flowing into the expansive and deeply private rear garden - where lawns, veggie patches, and established greenery form a sanctuary-like backdrop. Privately positioned within this wing, the master suite is a true retreat, complete with walk-in robe and ensuite, plus peaceful garden outlooks - a space designed to restore and unwind.
Moments from the shoreline, the café culture of Broadway, and the coastal vibrancy of Glenelg, this address places lifestyle at the forefront. With esteemed schooling nearby, excellent transport connections, and an easy city commute, 79 Penzance Street presents a compelling blend of character, versatility, and coastal refinement - a home that feels both timeless and perfectly attuned to modern life.
