55 Commercial Road, Hyde Park, SA 5061

'Hatherley'

Substantial Hyde Park hideaway (circa 1865), sited on a large botanic, private, and discreet land holding of some 1,490 square metres (approx.), and situated at the very whisper-quiet section of Commercial Road.

It would be difficult to find a residence that offers so much anonymity, privacy, and tranquillity, so close to the peerless and spontaneous lifestyle attractions that King William Road, Hyde Park, does offer.

As you proceed down the driveway, you will immediately be taken by the manicured bounding gardens, until you reach the impressive residence, and encompassing sun-drenched gardens.

The original well-preserved historic residence (circa 1865), has over time, been afforded sympathetic and substantial additions, including numerous formal living areas, as well as light-filled casual living zones, offering great flexibility and functionality for the large and growing family, or visiting guests.

Extensive accommodation, including six large bedrooms (five bathrooms in total), four of which are ideally situated upstairs, enjoying delightful, elevated garden outlooks.  A central bathroom services the upstairs bedrooms.

The remaining two bedrooms are downstairs, and include a palatial master bedroom, with his and hers walk-in dressing rooms, and adjoining ensuite bathroom.

The second, equally as large second master bedroom (on the lower level), also enjoys an ensuite bathroom, study, and private retreat, which overlooks and opens to the delightful gardens.  This bedroom wing would be ideal for visiting guests.

Gracious formal rooms, including formal lounge (with gas fireplace), with the adjacent bay-windowed formal dining room (also with gas fireplace), takes full advantage of this beautiful private sanctuary.

A large portion of the residence is dedicated to the north-westerly orientated casual living areas, with the casual dining, and large family kitchen, opening to a private easterly-facing courtyard, which allows the morning sun to intrude.

The adjacent main bay-windowed casual living area, with open fireplace, is voluminous and overlooks and opens by French doors, to the beautiful gardens.

A further adjacent TV room presents yet another generous children's entertaining area.

'Hatherley', would be one of the best-kept residential secrets in the city fringe, presenting a private lifestyle oasis, that is so very spontaneous to numerous fashionable shopping and retail precincts, including King William Road, Unley Shopping Centre, and Mitcham Square Shopping Centre, to mention a few.

Iconic Heywood Park and Orphanage Park are only a short stroll away, and for that matter, it's not too much further to the CBD, via the South Park Lands.

Numerous nearby schooling options, including walking distance to Walford Anglican Girls School, St Thomas School, and only a short drive to Scotch College, Concordia College, and Highgate Primary School.  Private school buses are also available through the area.

Consider the current costs to reproduce/build over 500 square metres (approx.), of living and accommodation over two levels, then re-creating 1,490 square metres (approx.) of stunning landscaped grounds, and finally trying to find the land itself!, particularly, such a private sanctuary allotment like 55 Commercial Road, Hyde Park.

Excellent four-car garaging, ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, alarm system, full reticulation watering system, and excellent security.
