Was this once Mel Gibson's pad?

We just sold this charming one bedroom apartment in Thornber Street Unley Park. It is situated upstairs in a heritage listed mansion, which was divided into flats to save it from the demolition guys.

Not only does it have a pool, outbuildings and a rambling 4000 square metre shared garden - there are chickens which provide a constant supply of fresh eggs. The apartment is held by way of a company title which differs from the more common strata and community titles. The owner doesn't have a title in any real estate, but instead has a right to occupy a defined area in the company owned building by virtue of owning shares in the company.

Another interesting piece of history is that this is the building where Mel Gibson and Robyn Moore lived as tenants in the late 1970's soon after filming the movie Mad Max. Robyn was a dental nurse and Mel was an unknown actor with the South Australian theatre company!
