Just as the sandstone villa will forever stand the style test of time, this one somehow raises the bar on the doorstep of the CBD and Duthy Street.
You can thank the current owners - the ones with a rare eye for style, the foresight to extend on a block with rear lane access, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
And so it is that its pristinely preserved fireplaces, leadlight, sandstone and 3.3-metre-high ceilings have never looked so good in a home with a flawlessness that defies its 1900 origins.
To stain the timber floors in such a dark hue was just one of the many masterstrokes.
The contrast from dark to bright white is match by the smoothest transition from original to new - from the 3-bedroom original home to a dynamic open-plan extension...
If the kitchen's Caesarstone-smothered island - two-pack cabinetry in white - isn't a reason to hug the current owners with gleeful gratitude, nothing is.
A brand new bathroom - headlined by full-height stone tiling and high-end fittings - is no exception.
And the black frames of the north-facing picture windows/doors that lead eyes and feet outside are a striking statement in their own right.
Outside, expertly landscaped gardens, a cubby, alfresco entertaining area, and carport lead to that rear lane and the realisation that a park and bicycle trail start just metres away.
You've got it made.
