Charm of Yesteryear with Convenience of Modern Amenities.

A delightful, well-built and meticulously maintained 1920′s bungalow home of solid double brick construction. Extremely well situated on a spacious 1105 m2 allotment (over 1/4 acre) in the historic precinct of the town with just a short walk to the main street, Woodside Primary school and public transport.

The charm and character of this home is immediately evident upon entry with lofty 9’6″ ceilings, central hallway with ornate archway, polished jarrah flooring, red pine skirting boards and doors, picture rails, leadlight windows in the bathroom, wide, shady verandah and enchanting separate original brick laundry.

All rooms are generously sized and one of the three bedrooms has a fireplace which is operational (currently capped). The living room has a two-way servery and storage cupboards with original shield doors to the kitchen. There is a 2.5hp Daiken reverse cycle split system offering instant heating and cooling as well as a Nectre slow combustion heater with fan which has been built into the original glazed brick open fireplace.

The rooms are tastefully decorated with heritage colours, quality curtains and carpet. There are solid brass light fittings with etched glass orbs as well as heritage light switches throughout the home.

The sparkling heritage-style bathroom offers a shower over the bath, pedestal vanity, heat/light/fan unit, toilet, lighting over the mirror and ornate tiling. Two original twin-door timber storage cupboards line the passage to the bathroom.

The galley kitchen (fitted in 2000) is well-appointed with a Ceran cooktop, Smeg oven built into the original wood stove alcove and Mistral extractor fan. It also has a full and a half sink and ample under-bench and wall-mounted cupboards.

The enclosed rear verandah is bright and airy and boasts Willunga slate flooring.

For outdoor living and entertaining there is an excellent undercover 5m x 3m elevated pergola which overlooks the garden.

The back yard is open, spacious and very adaptable with mature liquid amber and silver birch trees which provide glorious autumn colour. The front garden offers stone-lined garden beds with fragrant olde-world roses and cottage plantings, as well as maple, silver birch, weeping cherry, silk tassell and loquat trees. A magnificent display of flowering wisteria along the driveway fence is enjoyed every spring.

Further improvements include a picket fence and restored heritage gates, paved driveway, lock-up single garage with swing doors, light and power. There is also a modern 6m x 9m colourbond shed with sliding doors, concrete floor, generous lighting and power. A three module rainwater tank is adjacent. A two-car length carport with heritage features adjoins the residence.

All in all, a wonderful family offering with a very adaptable floor plan for expansion if required. This delightful property offers heart and soul and all the charm of yesteryear with the convenience of modern amenities – all in a fabulous location in the historic core of Woodside.
