The real luxury at 42A Marden Road is the combination of having room for family life to spread out with the River Torrens practically on the doorstep. Built in 2012, this polished contemporary residence makes clever use of its deceptively spacious footprint, giving you a peaceful retreat at the front, a separate lounge in the middle and a sun-splashed social heart at the rear. Right from the secure gated entry, there's a surprisingly generous sense of privacy for an address so closely connected to the city.
The master bedroom claims the first quiet corner, complete with picture windows, a walk-in robe and private ensuite, while the central lounge opens to its own courtyard for a welcome change of atmosphere. Two more bedrooms sit near the family bathroom, complete with a separate shower, bath and WC delivering a thoughtful arrangement that lets everyone find their own rhythm, as well as making light-work of the morning rush.
At the rear, the kitchen earns its place as the household gathering point, with extensive benchtops, stainless appliances and an island bench that gives everyone somewhere to perch while dinner comes together. The living and dining carry the conversation towards glass doors, where the covered timber-decked alfresco makes weekend hosting a tempting ritual. Sunny lawn stretches beyond, with vegetable beds ready for planting, leaving enough outdoors to let kids play or pets roam without a demanding maintenance schedule.
Ducted air conditioning, solar power and secure garaging make the practical side just as appealing whether you're a professional couple or young family trading more lifestyle for less upkeep. But the postcode might be the finest inclusion of all. The River Torrens trails sit directly behind this sought-after pocket, inviting afternoon walks or a weekend ride through leafy scenery. Marden Shopping Centre is around the corner, while Walkerville, Prospect and The Parade offer an unmatched circuit of cafés, retail and restaurants. All this, with Adelaide CBD still an astonishingly 10-minutes from your door.
