29 Anderson Road, Bridgewater, SA 5155

It will be love at first sight when you discover this totally captivating c.1920 'weatherboard' home, ideally positioned on a sumptuously light-filled, north-facing and very gently sloping allotment of some 2,630 sqm (or almost 2/3 of an acre), with huge street frontage and driveway access to the rear of the property.

The original character of this picture-perfect cottage with its classic exterior, adorned with original windows and finished in white and lemon, is a clue to the cosy style that lies within.

As you step inside from beneath the wide and all-so spacious wrap-around verandah you are welcomed by the exquisite, large living room, featuring ornate ceiling roses, original interior doors and wood-fired combustion stove that distributes even heat throughout the home. The gorgeous timber floors, finished in lavish tones reminiscent of rich, dark molasses maintain an indulgent, warm atmosphere.

The classic 'Country Style' theme continues through to both of the delightful secondary bedrooms, each with its own special outlook. Bedroom two is good-sized, suiting double or queen bed and comes with freestanding robes. Bedroom three is perfect for a single bed and is also ideal as a study or even a nursery.

Expanses of new hardwood timber floors lead from the living room to the heart of the home, where you'll discover there is a much more modern and sophisticated aspect to this home than first meets the eye.

Seeing its potential to become a perfect, modern home, creating a seamless look from the old to the new, was a priority for the current owners. Sympathetically and thoughtfully re-imagined by an architect, and now extended and renovated throughout, this section of the home is a rich blend of yesteryear warmth and charm combined with today's modern comfort and style.

The master bedroom is very spacious and adjoins a new en-suite bathroom, tastefully designed and expertly executed to provide space, comfort and an intimate outlook to the garden. Across the short hallway is the new main bathroom, with laundry facility cleverly incorporated behind bi-fold doors.

A stunning open plan kitchen with enormous walk-in pantry is the perfect balance of sleek modern styling with classic country tones of silver, white and blue and overlooks the light and airy dining room that features full-height north-facing windows that reach to the top of the lofty raked ceiling. The dining room opens with cafe doors to a brilliant 'Alfresco' entertaining area, setting the scene for the largest of gatherings with family and friends.

The spacious, lawned yard, providing plenty of space for children and four legged friends to play, also lends itself to the hand of the keen gardener who will quickly realise it's full potential by capitalising on its existing structure and lovely features.

This is a special place for your family to thrive. The house is within easy walking distance to Aldgate Primary and Hills Montessori schools and is situated within the ever-popular Heathfield High School zone.
