Extended, preserved and periodically upgraded by its loving and long-standing owners, this charismatic 3-bedroom family home on an enviable 755sqm block has aged like a fine wine in a city fringe suburb that is deservedly growing in demand with every passing day.
You might not see it, but just know that the beautifully presented front façade of this 1915-built charmer is bound by the strongest bluestone - a hint that enviable period charm awaits inside.
With polished pine floors, lofty ceilings, hall arch, and colourful leadlight, the original home - featuring three double sized bedrooms and a light-filled formal lounge - boasts all the timeless hallmarks of a character villa.
But times have changed, and that's exactly why the open-plan extension at the rear takes a humble home and turns it into a bonafide modern-day crowd pleaser.
With a gargantuan island/breakfast bar and enough space for the largest of dining tables, the extension is an official entertainer's hub, with the potential to extend the fun even further...without compromising the feeling of freedom the backyard already affords.
In fact, so enviably sized is your rear yard that, between the entertaining pergola and the huge garage/shed at the rear boundary, sits 25 metres of land to extend into. Suddenly the options are endless.
And it all sits within walking distance from Adelaide United's Hindmarsh Stadium, the Entertainment Centre, Adelaide Oval, a range of quality schools and, of course, the CBD itself. Welcome to West Hindmarsh.
