With its sandstone-inspired façade, charming gables and a prized Kensington Park address, 17 Toowong Avenue brings a little character to a beautifully adaptable family footprint. Beyond the gated frontage, the home's two living zones offer young couples, growing households and downsizers the freedom to spread out. A sunlit sitting room offers a peaceful retreat near the entrance, while the main bedroom sits further along the hall, enjoying built-in robes close to the ground-floor bathroom.
The tempo lifts towards the rear, where a soaring ceiling and exposed timber beam lend the open-plan lounge a lovely sense of volume. The recently renovated kitchen keeps the cook in the conversation, offering generous bench space, crisp cabinetry and modern appliances, while the adjacent dining area suits casual meals or company. Glass doors open from both sides of this social domain, drawing fresh air through the home and making outdoor dining feel like a natural extension of the interior.
A pitched verandah wraps along the side before opening into a covered entertaining area overlooking manicured lawns, with Ziptrak blinds offering protection when the weather turns. Upstairs, two bright bedrooms with wardrobe storage share their own bathroom, creating valuable separation from the main-level for kids, guests or work-from-home pursuits. A separate laundry, understairs storage and zone ducted climate control take care of the practicalities, leaving more time to enjoy that lifestyle both at home and further afield.
Outside the front gate, Kensington Park puts much of Adelaide's sought-after eastside drawcards into play. Leafy reserves and local parks offer a rejuvenating change of pace, while quality public and private schools help keep family routines stress-free. Magill Road's cafés bring for a morning caffeine fix or quick lunch catch-up, and cosmopolitan pull of The Parade delivers its vibrant mix of restaurants, boutiques and weekend entertainment the moment the mood strikes, while Adelaide CBD is less than 10-minutes away by car or bus, keeping the city firmly in the picture.
