55 Sheoak Road, Crafers West SA 5152

OPEN CANCELLED - UNDER CONTRACT

This A-frame seeks a style rewrite under Crafers' wooded cover.

Take the scenic turn from Stirling barely a bird call from Belair National Park and you could easily miss this three-bedroom, 1980s built cottage. But settled amongst some seriously stylish treehouse mansions is your chance to polish this diamond in the rough...

And several peaceful minutes from the Freeway is where you'll find a chalet-style snug in need of renewal, be it as a cosy hillside family home or a project worth tenanting.

A home with bare, unadulterated potential - isn't that the best kind?

From the outside it's an A+ for charm and appeal; a complementary A-frame dual carport pulls up at the end of the gravel drive where extensive stone retaining walls and a natural landscape serves you privacy - and solace - from the city some 20 minutes away.

While inside is a doer-upper's dream. The layout works, its entertainer's deck and upper level balconies capitalise on its bushland surrounds, and with the cost of building new skyrocketing, this could be better than a blueprint...

Open plan living, dining and a basic kitchen leaves the focus outdoors or beside the combustion fire, and the original central bathroom services the home giving direct access to the master; the only ground floor boudoir.

Upstairs, two loft-style bedrooms with pitch adds to its treehouse feel, each owning a private balcony, study capacity and inbuilt storage.

More utility storage sits beneath the house, as an assortment of exotic and native trees, even wildlife fills your manageable, 550sqm (approx.) allotment.

In a peaceful pocket that puts Heathfield High School on your radar, and the knowledge that the inner south's prestigious schools - Scotch, Concordia, Mercedes or Seymour - are no stretch from home.

With serenity, adventure and the scope to rediscover style, consider Sheoak ready...
