Call it serendipity, but here’s an opportunity to step in and add the finishing touches to a renovation project, enviably located within strolling proximity of cafes, restaurants, shops and SA’s favourite metropolitan beaches.

Sited on a North-facing 647m² block with valuable rear access, this circa 1910 return-veranda villa is a work in progress, with plans already approved for family additions headlined by a stunning directional kitchen with a walk-in pantry and that longed-for master retreat with ensuite and walk-in robe.

At the front, you already get a stylish insight into just how fantastic this home could be, with the entrance hall, study and acting master bedroom already restored to jaw-dropping effect.

As things stand, the floorplan affords 3-4 bedrooms, a combined bathroom/laundry, spacious walk-in store, living room and functional kitchen/dine, which could be destined for more free-roaming relaxation by opening it up to the hall.

Slide open the patio doors at the rear and you’re rewarded with a glass-roofed veranda that is perfect for summer entertaining, and a lush, shade-dappled lawn framed by freshly-clipped hedges the perfect spot for a pool perhaps?

Of course, the direction you take will depend on your endgame. Liberate the floorboards and upgrade the kitchen and bathroom to attract a better class of tenant, get cracking on those rubber-stamped additions for the family home of your dreams, or bowl it over to build a pair of money-spinning maisonettes just like the ones next door, (subject as always to the necessary approvals).

But whatever you decide, it’s good to know that you simply can’t lose. For nothing can equal this brilliant opportunity on the doorstep of Henley Square’s trendy dining scene, Grange Sailing Club, Grange Primary, and so much more.

Bonus features include:
*Security alarm
*Instantaneous gas hot water
*Negotiable ducted air conditioning system (purchased but never installed)
*Garden shed
*Single iron garage with attached store/studio and rear laneway access
*Gorgeous established gardens
