Auction Location: On site

AUCTION Saturday 13th April at 10:30am, on site (Unless sold prior)

There are some rare parcels of real estate that have a prized position which elevates them beyond simply being a home and make them a peaceful sanctuary for those fortunate enough to live there. This much-loved property is being offered to the market for the first time in 25 years, situated in an extremely tightly-held cul-de-sac of only 5 homes, all positioned on large plots of land with wide frontages and adjoining peaceful Meadowbank Reserve. East-facing towards the Adelaide foothills, it shines in beautiful morning sunlight to the tune of many species of birds that make this tranquil pocket their home amongst the native trees.

Superbly built in 1965, with double brick construction, Basket Range Sandstone facade and the tuck-pointing that was so iconic of quality homes of its era. This spacious and light home offers up to five bedrooms all on one level with solid timber floorboards throughout, 2 bathrooms and under-cover parking for 2 cars. A large 869sqm allotment and 27.5m frontage make this a wonderful home for families but also for down-sizers and investors alike, with scope to update wet areas to add value.

The back yard has an incredible orchard of established organic fruit trees, including cherry, avocado, pear, apple, plum, orange, mango and apricot, which have been lovingly tended to over many years. It also comes with a large swim-spa under a spacious outdoor entertaining alfresco and 3kW solar electrical system.

Zoned for the brilliant Netherby Kindergarten, Highgate Primary School (and close to un-zoned Mitcham Primary School), and for Unley High School, which was recently granted the International Baccalaureate (IB) program. Close to Burnside Village and Mitcham Square shopping precincts, Urrbrae House, Carrick Hill, nature walks through the Waite Arboretum and nearby walking trails, the Adelaide University Waite campus and CSIRO.

This is an outstanding opportunity to own a home that offers a lifestyle far beyond what most properties so close to the CBD can.
