Property Description
Listed on 4 Dec 2025
An extraordinary and generational opportunity, 16 Flinders Street presents a grand 1915 Edwardian sandstone villa of exceptional scale and character on approximately 975m² in one of Adelaide's most tightly held inner-city pockets. Retaining magnificent period detail throughout — including soaring ceilings with ornate, hand-painted pressed-metal patterns, multiple marble fireplaces, exquisite leadlight, and intricate timber fretwork — this landmark residence offers a rare platform to create one of Adelaide's most significant private homes. Owned by the same family for more than 50 years and once home to the Consulate of Malaysia, the property is currently disposed as two separate dwellings but is ready to be reimagined and restored to its original glory as a single statement villa of substantial proportions. The striking façade, wrapped in a return verandah with decorative posts and balustrading, showcases classic Edwardian craftsmanship. Other features include the front room's oeil-de-boeuf window, the home's hipped Dutch-gable roof and feature gables, all elevating the property's architectural pedigree. Inside, the floorplan offers remarkable flexibility, with up to five bedrooms, multiple living zones, dual kitchens, three bathrooms, a vast dry cellar, extensive verandahs and a double carport — providing the scale and structure required for luxury modern living. Grand formal rooms with pressed-metal ceilings and fireplaces anchor the home, while generous rear family spaces open to the deep, established grounds, offering ample room for future landscaping, extension or pool design, subject to the normal approvals. There is also valuable rear access to the home from Little Wakefield Street. This is an unparalleled chance to secure a blue-chip landholding moments from the East End, Norwood Parade, Rundle Street dining, and Adelaide's finest schools. Opportunities of this calibre, size and architectural distinction are seldom offered — and almost never in this coveted location. 16 Flinders Street, Kent Town — a once-in-a-generation canvas for one of Adelaide's future showpiece residences.
