11 DUMBARTON AVENUE, Edwardstown, SA 5039

Built around 1924 this beautifully maintained bungalow has retained its lovely character whilst providing a sympathetically designed and superbly built extension, to accommodate family living. Located on a corner allotment, there is easy access from the side street as well as Dumbarton Avenue.
A brick paved path curves to the front verandah which shelters an original screen and solid front door. Appealing polished Baltic pine floorboards, high ceilings, deep skirting boards, picture rails and open fireplaces are just some of the original features.
The floor plan is versatile and rooms can be used in various ways. Currently there are 4 bedrooms, one with built in robes and the main with a walk in robe/storage room. All these rooms are large and the main bedroom has a sliding door to the verandah and garden.
There are 2 fireplaces, one in the front bedroom and the second in the central sitting room.
The lounge doorway opens to the stunning extension. This is an exciting construction called Eco-block. Using a clever combination of concrete and insulation it enables the heat to be retained in winter and the coolness in summer, thereby providing savings for the owner.
The classy kitchen with solid jarrah bench tops, display cabinets, European appliances, fantastic storage space and its own scullery has been custom designed and made and the adjacent meals area can accommodate a particularly large table.
The open plan airconditioned nature of this area is a boon for families and a sliding door opens to the north facing back verandah.
Two bathroom facilities are separated by a central vanity basin - one with toilet and an original claw foot bath with shower over and the other with shower and toilet. The laundry is adjacent and provides cupboard and bench space and a laundry chute, so the wet areas are grouped together
It is a great back yard with colourful garden beds and areas of lawn, an extensive undercover area, double garage with light and power and an airconditioned, fully lined and insulated home office or teen retreat. A feature of this lovely secure yard is the magnificent grape vine, approximately 70 years old, which bears an abundance of succulent, sweet grapes year after year.
From this address you can walk to transport, shops and school and you are only a few minutes from the city. This is great value!
