Halfway along a quiet cul-de-sac with a playground at the end that doubles as your shortcut to Newton Village, 1 Spartan Crescent is a double brick 2-storey family home with a spacious and versatile layout that, with some creative design thinking, could be modernised and personalised to your taste (STCC).
As is, you can move straight in or rent this place out, but many will be keen to capitalise on the super location and get a makeover started ASAP - perhaps retaining some of the classic late 70's features, like the exposed internal brickwork and solid timber ceiling beams, while switching to a more contemporary flooring product and redoing the 2 retro-tiled full bathrooms and all-timber kitchen.
A family-friendly floorplan currently separates the social from the sleeping zones, so your starti point is solid if you do want to bring this beauty well into the 21st Century! Downstairs is primarily about living, dining and cooking with the original kitchen/meals area, along with a large lounge and a separate rumpus with a wet bar - all opening onto outdoor entertaining spaces that spill into a grassy backyard. Along with a powder room next to the laundry, there's a surprise space connected to the kitchen and entry foyer, which could be an extra bedroom, study or home business base.
For now, the official accommodations are above, with 3 of the 4 bedrooms able to captu Athelstone's famed gully breezes through openings onto an arched street-facing balcony. By far the largest, the master has a WIR, built-in dresser and an ensuite which, like the full family bathroom on the landing, is original in every way!
Whether you do nothing or renovate (STCC), you can't go wrong moving to a location only 10km from town and from which you can easily walk to a vibrant local shopping centre filled with eateries a speciality stores, early schooling options, parks and city-bound buses.
