3 Bella Vista Avenue, Clapham, SA 5062

It's full gleam ahead for this renovated Art Deco home sited on an easy-care 705m2 block in a peaceful Jacaranda-lined street with gorgeous hills views and sea glimpses.

Relaxing with a glass of wine on the north-facing veranda, a splash of blue on the horizon, the birds singing in the trees; it's hard to believe you're only minutes to shops, cafes and cinemas at Mitcham Shopping Centre as well as a huge choice of public and private schools; also a breezy 10-minute commute to the city by train when services resume in a few months time.

Not only has the 1945 home been stylishly updated, the floor plan has also been tweaked to create a lovely natural flow between the formal lounge and open-plan family spaces. Here the stunning 2-year old Jag kitchen - the laundry is also Jag - is the hub of family life and a stage for feasts with friends. Featuring beautiful Caesar Stone bench tops, stainless steel appliances and the latest in pull-out spray taps; it's a very inclusive workspace with a clear line of sight through all the living spaces and out to the backyard.

Expanses of glass encourage a life spent outdoors with the beautiful hills providing an idyllic backdrop for summer barbecues under the pergola. Kids and pets will love to play on the tiered lawns and there are rich pickings of mulberries, passionfruit and lemons at certain times of the year.

Come winter, nothing beats a roaring log fire in the lounge room's beautiful Art Deco fireplace that has been pumping out cosy comforts for well over sixty years.

With a sunny frontal aspect, the master bedroom features spacious mirror-fronted built-ins and enjoys good separation from the other two double bedrooms. It is also practically en suite to the delectable on-trend bathroom with its deep bath and tantalising taupe decor, both located together in a small hallway off the lounge.

And if you need more space, there are council approved plans (just granted) for stylish additions that would bring the total number of bedrooms to four, together with a second bathroom, music room and new family spaces opening to alfresco entertaining under the main roof. It is also envisioned that the double carport be converted into an auto garage with a store at the rear.

A stunning home as is, with exciting scope to enlarge later down the track. See it this weekend!
