As soon as you step inside this grand, and beautifully preserved, 1910-built home, the rat race (including the sounds of Brighton Road) is replaced with the spacious freedom and old-world charm that simply soothes the soul on the doorstep of the sandy shores of Glenelg.

Don't be fooled by the address, because the ingenuous (and rather expensive) decision to soundproof every door and leadlight-laden window was a masterstroke not to be underestimated - it's so quiet, that it will simply shock you.

Featuring intricately decorated 3.5-metre-high ceilings, polished pine floors, re-furbished timber mantles and functional fireplaces; the original home is a striking showcase of everything we all love about the period home.

The original home's alluring looks are matched by the functionality and flexibility of a floor plan that delivers two double bedrooms - including a master with hidden access to your ensuite - and two expansive living rooms; one could be a fifth bedroom and both were born for nights by a crackling fire.

Of course, any home worthy of a growing family must have an extension - this time, you have the luxury of a wing with two bedrooms that will serve the kids so well.

The brand new two-pack kitchen - boasting a 900mm stainless steel oven/gas cooktop and a handy study nook - will serve you very well, too; particularly when guests come over for a summer lunch in a rear yard blessed with a pergola, double carport, double garage/workshop and enviable rear lane car access.

And it all stands within walking distance to the vibrant beachside fun of Jetty Road and the prized zone of Brighton High School. Perfect.

More reasons why we love this home:

- Flexible floor plan - offering the option for 5-bedrooms
- 5.2KW (27 panels) solar system for reduced energy bills
- Undercover parking for up to four cars (including boat or caravan clearance to carport)
- Ducted gas heating and evaporative cooling throughout
- Remote entry to double garage and rear gates
- Soft-close cabinetry and loads of cupboard and bench space to kitchen
- Could be converted for business/accommodation
- Floor-to-ceiling built-in robes to master, plus storage/walk-in robe to bedroom two
- Beautifully landscaped gardens to front and rear
- Ceiling fans to carport - perfect for conversion to outdoor entertaining space
- Foxtel provisions
- And so much more.
