About this property
River Torrens Retreat—Between the CBD & Parklands
Discover a modern haven in the heart of Gilberton, where leafy parklands meet city energy. This bright, stylish retreat invites you to slow down and savour the moment — from morning coffee on the sunlit balcony to cosy evenings in the open-plan living space. With a sleek kitchen, BBQ, warm textures, and thoughtful touches throughout, it’s the perfect blend of comfort, connection, and effortless Adelaide charm.
Step inside and feel instantly at ease in this modern Gilberton hideaway — a place where sunlight filters through wide windows, natural textures meet clean modern lines, and every detail feels considered. The living area is calm and inviting, with a leather sofa and a large TV and entertainment unit making it easy to unwind after a day exploring Adelaide’s parklands and cafés. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need — a gas cooktop, oven, dishwasher, full-size fridge, and coffee machine — while the four-seater dining table offers a comfortable spot for conversation or remote work. Slide open the doors to your private balcony, a leafy escape with outdoor seating and a small gas BBQ — ideal for laid-back al fresco dining or simply soaking up the afternoon sun. Both bedrooms are serene sanctuaries, dressed in fresh linen and natural tones. Each includes a queen bed, soft bedside lighting, and mirrored built-in wardrobes for a sense of calm and space. The bathroom is crisp and contemporary, featuring a walk-in shower, vanity, and washing machine for added convenience. Whether you’re here for a weekend escape, business stay, or extended visit, you’ll find a peaceful base perfectly positioned between city buzz and parkland calm.
