At first, all is what it seems in this charming version of the sandstone-fronted 1930s bungalow its three bedrooms, hall and formal lounge.
Robust timber architraves, lofty decorative ceilings and the odd fireplace all sing like the day they were built, and prove that there is no work to be done in a home that has belonged to the one family for decades.
And then it appears...
Suddenly, an expansive 2007-built extension opens everything right up to unveil one of the biggest rear yards you will see in a city-fringe suburb.
The extension - boasting style that is sympathetic to the original home and a spacious overlooking kitchen - is BIG. But the rear yard of your 1022 square-metre-block is BIGGER.
In fact, start imagining what a tennis court and pool would look like, because there's plenty of room, and some left over. Or you could just leave it as is and bask in the boundless grassed areas that will host the best backyard cricket you will ever see.
Of course, with a block this size, there's obvious potential for a lucrative redevelopment or sub-division (STCC). That's if you can handle messing with history and a home with so much to give already.
More reasons why we love this home:
- Perfectly positioned opposite Torrensville Primary School
- 3KW solar system for reduced energy bills
- Huge carport with electronic entry and enough space for four small cars
- Paved alfresco entertaining area and large storage shed to rear yard
- Ducted refrigerated cooling and gas heating throughout
- Second toilet and shower to extension
- Stainless steel appliances and built-in dishwasher to kitchen
- Plenty of storage options, including built-in robes
- Walking distance to Linear Park Trail to the city and the sea
- Close to Kings Reserve and just 10-minutes' drive from Henley Beach
- And much more.
