9 College Avenue, Bellevue Heights SA 5050

9 College Avenue has been home to one family and is a fine example of superior build quality! With an Architectural influence, the home is all solid brick and built on concrete foundation on both levels.
For the owners in 1975, their home was designed and built just for them and to take every advantage of views to the lights, sea & amazing sunsets! The land measures 998sqm, it's the perfect size and with a fabulous backyard setting - all useable, very private and with beautifully established gardens.

Please study the floorplan - the split-level design separates bedrooms and living areas to create that feeling of independent living across two levels. Especially for the buyer needing versatile living-space instead of bedrooms, it could be perfect.
There are two huge bedrooms, two bathrooms and two living areas - the downstairs games room could certainly be converted into a third bedroom if needed, and it has the potential to be self-contained too!

You just know when you are living in a well-built home - you can sense and feel it. Inside is peacefully quiet and with a certain ambience and character all-of-its-own. And you are living with Views!
The home is sited beautifully with a wide and open frontage, and where you can enjoy both front and backyards. A concrete driveway provides easy entry into a double garage under-main roof. You can easily park two more cars on the flat in front of the garage doors - one is a manual lift and the other is remote. The garage has 3.3m ceilings with potential to create mezzanine storage - there is also a hatch to a sneaky storage area and stairway access up to the back porch.
From the garage a concrete patio brings you up to the portico entry and front door. The patio turns on itself with glass sliding doors to an open-air terrace and around to the front of the home with a superb outdoor living area under-main roof. It's all funky tile on concrete and through triple arches ... love those views!

The formal entry hall opens to a gallery style library or intimate sitting nook - it could be the ideal spot for a piano.
The main living area is superb. Exposed structural timbers and high raked ceilings are impressive! A wall of window brings in natural light, and this combined living and dining is extended through to the balcony terrace. A wall of panelled Meranti timber frame display shelves & built-in cabinetry and gives this space a mid-century appeal!
The kitchen received a previous upgrade. Granite stone tops and glass splashbacks look great; there is an open island and a spot for the breakfast table, a large walk-in pantry, excellent cupboard & soft-close drawer storage. There is an electric cooktop, adjacent raised oven, a nook for the microwave, while the wet area with dishwasher looks out to the backyard gardens.
Like a spacious and flowing apartment, upstairs is practical and easy to live in. The main bedroom feels private - it's a very good size with an ensuite & walk-in robe and sliding doors that open to the back porch. The hallway also serves to zone the upstairs guest toilet with vanity, large laundry, linen storage and provides direct access to the backyard environment.

An exposed brick stairwell introduces the downstairs domain - the return staircase is a feature in itself! The second bedroom is large enough for a desk and lounge, there are two robes - could a partition wall create two smaller rooms if required? The adjacent bathroom is complete with a bath, shower, toilet and good storage - and like the ensuite, presents in original perfect condition.
The billiards-games room is that versatile living space. It has a corner bar and access to the under-house storage which has very real potential to be the ultimate cellar! This room could easily become a third bedroom and may have the potential to be self-contained. For the young adult, couple or extended family ... it could be ideal. It is certainly perfect for guest stays! Large windows and a sliding door welcome natural light and you can even see the sea.

The backyard environment is a delight. Shaded by a canopy of established ornamentals - it's lush, green and very private. There is an open lawn area, secure fencing, perimeter gardens, two sheds both with concrete floors and a paved garden pergola.
Access from the garage is handy and flawless concrete pathways that span the length of the home also provide ramp access on one side to and from the front yard.

The position within Bellevue Heights is a beauty!
College Avenue is part of a secluded enclave of quality homes that enjoy a peaceful and private location - there is that feeling of disconnect, and yet it's all so convenient to the beach and city.
The Sturt Gorge walking and bike trails are at the end of the street ... What a Place to Live.
