10 Henry Street, Croydon, SA, 5008, Australia

So much more than its character stone faade implies, this 1910 symmetrical villa reveals a captivating 2017 renovation and extension steeped in landscaped serenity barely a block from the vintage and coffee capital of Queen Street.

Behind lineal electric gates and silver birches, finesse launches this 4-bedroom home to impressive new heights, and it's clear the minute you cross the new stained-glass threshold.

The double-glazed 100sqm rear addition holds your gaze as it throws wall-to-wall garden impact down the character hallway and under the ultra-modern finale's dizzying 4.4m ceiling peak.

High on this remodelled 4-bedroom home's hit list along with a purpose-built study - was storage. As a growing family or couple keen to expand or entertain, the lifestyle payback is boundless.

The 4m stone-topped kitchen island boasts 18 front drawers and end-to-end rear storage; and making the kitchen's minimalism appear like a monochromatic illusion, foldaway doors reveal double Miele ovens and an ingenious butler's wing and galley laundry underbelly with family-essential drying rails.

Built-in robes line 3 of the 4 leading double bedrooms; the main suite beaming daylight into its minimalist ensuite with a Velux skylight - the first to indulge in underfloor heating.

As a coercive centrepiece, the fully tiled main bathroom's freestanding tub conceals the separate WC and glass-free shower as your soles are treated to hydronic warmth.

Heated floors continue into the open plan, insisting on bare feet and T-shirts all winter long; the zone's epic stretch lets you configure it as you like under glorious clerestory windows and bespoke pulley-style pendants.

Your exit to outdoor calm is via the engineered, steel-framed pergola with a retractable shade sail as timber decking weaves among deep, low-lying gardens layered to low-care perfection under the Manchurian pear's canopy.

Wander the Japanese-inspired 'wave' garden, then prove how the huge wood oven serves piping hot pizza in less than a minute; the rear garage beautifully clad in blow-torched repurposed timber - has 3-phase power just like the home.

On course for Sunday brunch or a browse at Tinker Tailor, Willow Blend, and Billy's Table, a stroll to the supermarket, and a minute's dash to the Croydon train just 2 stops from the CBD, if you thought living couldn't get better on this hip city-fringe, it just did.
