The location is brilliant. Flinders University, Flinders Hospital and the brand new Flinders Train Station is just a nature walk away, and the exciting Tonsley Innovation Precinct is close by, while your choice of shopping which includes the Pasadena shopping complex, Westfield Marion and Blackwood Village are all just a short drive. You can be at Brighton beach in 12 minutes and the city in 20 minutes by car or 22 minutes by train ... what a lucky place to live!
Set well back from the street this home was built in 1973, a solid brick construction and has been positioned purposefully to have a north facing frontage. As you enter via the front porch take a moment to turn around and look off into the distance towards beautiful greenery, sitting out here at any time of day would be absolute bliss.
The upstairs floorplan flows effortlessly to create fantastic living spaces and bedrooms as well. Upgraded over time and most recently with brand new laminate blackbutt flooring in the lounge area, raked angled ceilings are a timeless feature in the family room.
The modern kitchen features granite benchtops, Miele appliances including electric induction cooktop, rangehood, raised oven and grill. There's also good bench space, cupboard and drawer storage, an Asko dishwasher and a handy breakfast bar.
All bedrooms include brand new fresh carpets and built-in cupboard storage. The main bedroom has an ensuite while rooms two and three connect well to the main bathroom and there is ideally a separate toilet too. The main bathroom, ensuite and laundry have been all been upgraded, and floor to ceiling tiles feature in all.
The downstairs fully self-contained Studio Unit is an absolute beauty! It really is a completely separate home where a resident can live independently and come and go as they please ... it would certainly appeal the lucky teenager or visiting loved ones. Completely insulated with its very own kitchen, lounge, laundry, bedroom with built-in cupboards and updated bathroom. The carpets are also new.
The home is sited such that you can use the entire 2,170 square metres, with different outlooks in every direction. The outdoor entertainment areas embrace further distant treetop views.
Two separate driveways lead to different sections of your home. The top driveway leads through to a carport while the grand palm trees along the lower driveway takes you through to another single carport adjacent the Granny Flat. There is also a garage underneath the home, workshop/storage room and cellar.
There is plenty of room for off-street parking and you can't help but admire the stone retaining walls which segregate the driveways and the yard itself. Imagine recreating all of this again today!
Some extra features on this home and land include - ducted evaporative cooling throughout the upper level, sliding door front windows onto the front balcony, hallway cupboard storage and skylight, solar hot water, two rainwater tanks, front lawn irrigation and pop-up sprinklers, a backyard shed on a concrete slab and a side gate leading through to a quiet reserve/playground.
11 Bellevue Drive is a unique buying opportunity in more ways than one. A wonderful family home, a versatile downstairs Studio Unit and in this position this half-acre allotment is a prime piece of Real Estate ... Go for it and make it yours!
