Auction Location: on site.

You hoped it would turn up but after searching for 18 months you’re over it! Just when you least expect it, when you’ve decided to abandon the quest for your heritage meets modern dream with more house and less land, and settle for a new build.

Forget it, it’s here. A character extended bungalow that’s modestly ostentatious and as with most regal addresses, it’s in the best location. Unley Park is a superior address not to be taken lightly. Famed for the calibre & class of its avenues, location close to the CBD with its renowned Universities and colleges and close access to premier schools and colleges including Scotch College, Cabra, Walford, and zoned for Unley High School and Primary with transport corridors to the celebrated Adelaide hills and metro beaches, it may be elite but it’s well worth it and this one is a discreet surprise.

Steps from Unley Road, your soon to be shopping and lifestyle haven, you’ll be excused for passing it by without a glimpse. Subtly set behind double, remote, gated entry, with high brush fencing and video intercom pedestrian access, you’ll be wowed, when on authentication, you step into a refined architectural, modern garden with sculpted greenery and a sense of calm. Wide & wrapped a verandah on this north facing allotment of 541 sqm approx provides for “Tea on the Terrace” or fun and games for a “Tribe of terrors”. Marine paint on verandah providing non slip surface. So much a family home and yet compact and manageable, it has nine main rooms, with unlimited flexibility over 330sqm built, it could even be a down sizer, seeing is believing.

Lock up and leave. It has you covered with under cover on-site parking for three vehicles in line, or could accommodate your playthings, boat and van as double fenced it caters for further parks or secure areas for pets or young children, safe undercover play areas for those rainy days, bike track or a perfect backyard cricket pitch on hardy irrigated soft leaf buffalo lawn.

Snuggle up at night in front of one of three original fireplaces in the impressive formal lounge (or 5th bedroom) elegant, sitting/dining room or 2nd bedroom. Retained 1925 era elements take you back in time but it’s been upgraded, renovated and extended to ensure you have the finer things in life.

A parents retreat or private apartment is at the rear of the home with walk in robe and ensuite. Ideal for a granny flat for extended or for blended families with older children or teens. It could be a B&B or for country grandkids on Exeat.

The kitchen is modern with composite, stone waterfall end and extended bench overhang to seat six. Clever feature LED ribbon, backlights the mirror splash-back, reflecting the over bench light well, spilling light into the hub of this special home. High gloss white cabinetry with Blum special hardware creates a more than generous abundance of cupboards. Blanco double commercial look sink with pura tap and swivel pull out spray, Bosch dishwasher and Delonghi induction cook top.

Add simple, yet glamorous S header, block out curtains through family area, crisp white shutters, statement lighting includes LED downlights and glamorous, plush pile haze colour carpets and muted antique, timber look floors, it’s an endless list of elements contributing to the ambience of this very classy home.

The large kitchen, living extension, retains the high ceilings with a twist on contemporary showing how mix and match modernism and heritage sit side by side in seamless success.

French doors fling wide to an amazing alfresco covered entertaining zone which could seat 30 for a banquet, overlooking the David Burnett designed, landscaped garden, Mature Magnolia Teddy Bear, box and Lilly Pilly hedging, stunning feature crepe Myrtle, ornament olives, Cypress Pines, and an artwork of espaliered Pierre de Ronsard roses. Deciduous Forest pansy in front garden provides shade in summer and lets the winter sun shine through to the sitting room, yellow autumnal leaves. It’s low on maintenance & water consumption with full automated Rainbird irrigation. Borrowed landscape of complementary crimson spires and crepe myrtles in the neighbouring property and towering gums framing your own private pocket of Unley Park. Relax in the commodious alfresco entertainment zone. Gas outlet provides option for a super chef, so dream up your own outdoor domain. Cool down under a commercial wall mounted fan. Such vision, you’ll agree, with provision installed for enclosing the area with remote zip trac blinds to create an all season, protected living space.

A lap pool could be incorporated and you’ll find like most buyers, you’d like to create elements of your own, style, colour, reconfigure.
