Woodards House

A Heritage Landmark in the Heart of Adelaide
Woodards House is more than just a building; it is a living piece of Adelaide’s rich history. Built in the 1920s, this beautifully preserved heritage site reflects the architectural elegance of its era, with classic facades, intricate detailing, and a timeless charm that stands proudly amidst the city’s modern skyline. Its heritage significance is not only in its structure but also in what it represents: Adelaide’s commitment to preserving its cultural and architectural identity while embracing growth and innovation.

Set right in the vibrant hub of the city, Woodards House offers the perfect balance of history and modern convenience. Located just off King William Street, one of Adelaide’s most iconic thoroughfares, the building is surrounded by cafés, restaurants, and shops, creating a lively and welcoming environment for students and visitors alike. Excellent public transport connections, ample parking options, and the central business district right at its doorstep make the location highly accessible. Here, the tranquillity of heritage architecture seamlessly blends with the energy of city life, offering an inspiring atmosphere for both study and social
