Welcome to 3 Ritchie Terrace, a charming 3-bedroom, 1926 built solid brick bungalow located in the heart of Marleston; offering the perfect haven for small families to land bank, or the blank canvas for the astute developer. This 780.44m2 (approx) gem is strategically positioned, striking the ideal balance between city living and coastal lifestyle.
As you step off the large porch on entry and through the front door, you're greeted by an inviting open plan living and dining area.

An outdoor shed adds a touch of practicality, offering convenient storage solutions for your outdoor essentials.
The stand-out feature is the generously sized rear backyard, the block being a blank canvas with incredible potential for redevelopment, renovation, extension, new construction, or potential multi-development dwellings (subject to council and state approvals). Thanks to its flexible footprint and large 780.44m2 (approx) block , imagination is the only limit!

As the kids get older, the need for a great school is met, being zoned to Adelaide Botanic High School.
The property is surrounded by homes of similar bungalow vintage, along a tree-lined shady street and located in a prime position opposite the Westside Bikeway and walking trail. A 24/7 gym is within a short walking distance, and it's a 10-minute drive to Adelaide Airport, less than 3km to the CBD, and a short walk to the West Torrens dog park and Weigall Oval Sporting Facility.
