Positioned on a substantial corner block along a serene east-side cul-de-sac, an easy walk to Norwood International High and Magill Village, 12 Bennett Crescent is a sandstone-fronted lowset with polished timber floorboards and potential for an even brighter future should you modernise further or even reconfigure the layout to create a luxe master retreat and enhance the indoor/outdoor connection.
The current layout comprises a carpeted combined lounge/dining area, separate tiled kitchen with adjacent laundry, 4 bedrooms (or make that 3 and a second formal dining room), and a stylish main bathroom with a glass enclosed shower and the WC next door. There's a covered verandah running across the back of the house, a single side carport and standalone double garage.
Each of the 4 beds has timber flooring underfoot, 1 with a wall of timber robes as well, and the lounge sports a retro-cool custom timber corner display/storage unit that will appeal to modernist-lovers. Functional but not overly fancy, opening the door for an easy upgrade with a reskin, the kitchen is a generous space with tiled splashbacks, ample storage/prep space and backyard views. The living/sleeping spaces all have big picture windows to capture welcome natural light.
There's really nothing to do here if you want to move right in or rent out straight away. But big thinkers might get their pencils out and start imagining how 2 adjacent beds could become one marvellous master retreat with a WIR and ensuite, and the living/dining area could open out directly onto the rear verandah (subject to planning consent). The mind boggles with possibilities!
From this tranquil location you can walk pretty much everywhere for everyday essentials including groceries, schooling (primary to tertiary, state and private) and buses to The Parade's retail precinct or on into town. Love her as is or buy with a view to value-adding over time. All moves are good moves!
