The Velvet Cottage
An ENTIRE 1 bedroom cottage ALL to yourself on Vincent Street, nestled between the leafy parklands of South Terrace and the vibrant Adelaide Central Markets. Perfect for the weekender, business travellers or holiday makers alike, the cottage comes fully furnished with a private backyard deck, modern kitchen, and character-filled interiors. Just minutes to cafes, restaurants, the tram, and the best of Adelaide's CBD, you’ll have the city at your doorstep while enjoying cosy, quiet charm.
This charming city-fringe cottage features 1 bedroom, 1 beautifully renovated bathroom and a bright open-plan kitchen and dining area. With fast WiFi, thoughtful heating throughout, and even a wine fridge, you can simply arrive and enjoy a comfortable, stylish stay.
Enter through the chic black gates and into a private hallway that welcomes you with warm timber floors and tasteful décor. The first door on the right leads to the inviting living room, where a cosy two-seater lounge and decorative armchair sit under vibrant artwork. A flat-screen TV and heating add extra comfort, while the character fireplace adds charm (note: it's decorative only).
Next, the tranquil bedroom offers a restful retreat with a plush queen bed, full-length mirror, hanging space, TV, and a stylish décor chair. For your comfort, both a fan and heater are provided, making it perfect no matter the season.
The hallway flows into the heart of the home — the open-plan kitchen and dining area. Enjoy meals around the four-seater bench-style dining table, and cook with ease using the gas stove, oven, microwave, toaster, kettle, and exhaust fan. A small fridge and separate wine fridge keep all your essentials chilled, while a washing machine is also tucked neatly into the space. Heating ensures this room stays warm and inviting.
Just beyond the kitchen is a convenient storage nook for cleaning essentials, leading to the freshly renovated bathroom. Here you’ll find a modern vanity, toilet, and a sleek shower – all sparkling clean and designed for comfort.
Step outside into your private backyard oasis. A lovely timber deck features a dining table, perfect for a morning coffee or an evening wine. There’s also an off-street parking space accessible via the rear lane — a rare gem this close to the city. This thoughtfully styled cottage is your peaceful city escape, close to everything yet tucked away in a quiet street.

Great little house. Very clean. Everything provided and super close to restaurants, supermarket & St Andrew’s Hospital. A little inconvenient with roadworks happening immediately outside the house but unfortunate we happened to book right when work was in progress. Recommend this accommodation.
