Nestled within a hide-away pocket of exclusive Glenelg East, amongst a storybook streetscape of elegant family homes, arrive through an avenue of leafy trees to a ruby brick bungalow ageless, graceful, perfect all over and absolutely just the one youve been searching for
Epitomizing all that is sought of multi-age family living, the home combines comforting traditional style with contemporary celebration of space as activity zones transition fluently. Formal sitting and banquet dinner rooms are positioned separately from a brilliantly light casual living core toward the rear (second living and dining, plus kitchen), yet remain unified by rich timbers, soft cream and deep heritage hues in just the right place.
A restful retreat, against a backdrop of claret, the principal bedroom suite is sprawling and features a private, fully-tiled bathroom, ornamental fireplace and lengthy walk-in-wardrobe. Two additional bedrooms cater wonderfully for children with glossy polished floors just made for train sets and block building, and splashes of cheerful colour adorning the walls. Streamlined and traditionally styled, the main bathroom includes a centrepiece claw foot tub and patterned border tiles.
Accessible through a bank of wide glass doors, the sheltered rear yard is compact, low maintenance, and fabulously suited to entertaining all-season - with a stylish covered patio ensuring your family and friends are always protected from the elements.
Completed by a double length carport, ducted air conditioning and alarm security, this remarkable residence is mere steps away from the city-to-bay tram, and not a whole lot further from always-amazing Jetty Road.
Come discover life by the bay, and you find yourself being persuaded to stay.
