3 Melbourne Street, Glenelg North, SA 5045

Here is a rare find ? a hundred year old stone fronted villa, beautifully and lovingly restored and upgraded by the current owners. With leadlight windows at the front door and polished timber floor boards, it is clear from the outset that this is a fine old home. There are magnificent 3.3m high ceilings decorated with ornate roses and picture rails to greet us upon entering, and these flow on effortlessly throughout the main body of the home.

There are three bedrooms. Bedrooms 1 and 2 both have fireplaces and the Master Bedroom has a ceiling fan as well. The third bedroom has striking French doors to the outdoors all follow the heritage style with cornices and high skirting boards.

A large, light and bright living room offers room to move. Equipped with a heat exchange open fire place for climatic control, it too has French doors and hopper windows to open up for the evening sea breeze.

A heritage tiled bathroom provides well for the wet area amenities, offering a generously deep bath and a skylight overhead to brighten the space. A sunroom contains the washing machine in a space saving cupboard, tidily hidden from view, whilst allowing French doors to lead out to an entertaining deck on the verandah. You can open the louvre windows up in the evenings and feel the calming sea breeze.

The kitchen is bright and well-sized, with a ceiling fan and down lighting. There is plenty of cupboard space, plus room for more, and a dining area with a pretty view. Servery windows open out 180° to the covered, raised outdoor living deck.

Sit back and enjoy the gentle waft of the ocean on this magical deck overlooking a verdant tropical garden, the perfect place to entertain when family and friends drop over. A good size shed / man cave completes the outdoor picture.
