Succumb to the charm of a heritage family home preserved to perfection There's something enchanting about 27 Park Rd, Kensington Park - perhaps that something is so hard to pinpoint because there is simply too much to love, too much to adore.Through meticulous preservation, this heritage-listed bluestone villa pays perfect homage to its charming 1860's origins without losing sight of contemporary desires - it's simply the perfect combination of 'now' and 'then'.The captivation starts from the street - expertly manicured gardens unravel as you gravitate towards the front door perched under a return veranda laced in the foliage of a century-old wisteria.Once inside, it's officially love at first sight...Expanses of Baltic pine, pristine white walls and the highest decorative ceilings frame the hallway in understated elegance - a sign of things to come...The journey to the rear reveals a music/lounge room, library room and a master bedroom (with ensuite) - each blessed with open fireplaces, bay windows and bundles of space.Delve deeper and you'll stumble across one of the undoubted gems of the property - a classic claw-bath takes centre-stage in a double-access bathroom boasting Kohler fittings, timber floors, stone tiles and stunning leadlight.Natural light drenches a neighbouring sunroom/atrium - the gateway to 2 more large bedrooms and a formal lounge & dining room of royal proportions.Hidden away subtly, yet proudly, is a cellar fit for a most enviable wine collection.The attraction finally reaches its pinnacle courtesy of a light-filled conservatory and its adjoining kitchen at the rear of the property - a space where the natural environment reintroduces itself with authority.The kitchen oozes class - South Australian hand-made timber cabinetry plays host to stunning black granite bench tops and every Miele appliance the heart desires.Enchanted yet?
