169 Marian Road, Firle, SA 5070

Retaining many original features of this classic post war home design is this red brick and Mt Gambier limestone constructed family home. Positioned in a great central location just a short walk to the Firle shopping complex and close to many other handy facilities, and situated on a 900 sqm (approx) allotment, the home can genuinely be described as a rare example of its type. Built to last for generations, these homes are quite hard to find now, and this example with its elegant rounded "corners" and Art Deco influences will make a fabulous restoration project for those so inclined, but is perfectly comfortable to live in meanwhile.

Featuring the tall ceilings and large rooms that characterise these homes, this property has the added bonus of a large family room extension, along with a second kitchen (built in the true Italian tradition). An air conditioned lined garage makes a great outdoor entertaining area for family entertaining for those big occasions where the family room may not be quite large enough. A quality timber kitchen was added a few years ago and is the true heart of the home, and is adjacent to family sized formal dining and lounge rooms, both with elegant art deco influenced decorative ceilings. The master bedroom also boasts this ornate ceiling work, and together with its rounded design makes for a unique high character experience. The home is nicely secured via a large metal gate and a lock up roller door in front of the spacious and enclosed carport, and several minor sheds behind the lined and air conditioned garage are still redolent with the aromas from when Papa made his famous wine and sauces. It doesn't take much imagination to see future families enjoying this lovely home for many years to come, maybe yours is next in line?
