In true Tusmore fashion, the C1930s Tudor that’s been so kind to one family for more than 50 years emerges with the optimism to match its heart-warming past on an 854sqm (approx) parcel with the scope for a contemporary extension and a zoned ticket to Marryatville High and Linden Park Primary Schools.

Striking that quintessential gabled first impression from a peaceful, tree-lined Lynington Street, this timeless 4-bedroom home is as strong as ever on the brink of Burnside Village and Tusmore Park.

The character hallmarks of its era are all there, some in plain sight – think lofty decorative ceilings, prominent architraves, leadlight and sash windows – others waiting to be freed from their slumber.

We aren’t exactly sure if it’s Jarrah or pine under those colourful vintage carpets. Finding out will be half the fun as you take this light-filled trip-back-in-time to the 21st century. The bill busting 3.2KW solar system says you’re already on your way.

Make no mistake; there is no hurry to do anything at all to this ultra-comfy home with a flexible floorplan of casual and formal rooms, a 1970s bedroom/home office addition and a huge solid brick garage with 3-phase power and concrete floors.

If you do choose to impart an architectural open-plan addition onto this ducted temperature controlled home, don’t discount incorporating the garage into your plans.

For now, enjoy the spacious, centrally placed eat-in kitchen, two charming formal rooms that can be closed off from one another, custom solid timber storage at every turn, ample under-cover parking and a boundless back yard with room for a pool. What’s not to be optimistic about?
