In the blue-ribbon eastern pocket of Kensington Gardens, this solid brick family home sits proudly on a substantial, fullyfenced 808sqm corner allotment fronting Magill Road - a rare offering for those ready to renovate, restore and add their own value in one of Adelaide's most tightly-held locales and only steps from a favoured local cafe.
Inside, original character and mid-century charm merges with subtle modern features. Warm hardwood floorboards run throughout, while ceilings dressed with decorative roses and ornate cornices appear in the generous lounge room that flows to a separate dining zone with direct access to the rear yard.
Ducted reverse-cycle comfort and scattered skylights carry through approximately 215sqm of internal living, while lofty 2.7m high ceilings lend each room an airy, light-filled ambience.
The kitchen is a Blue affair, wrapping around the cook with glass-fronted cabinetry, integrated wine storage and generous bench space. A 900mm 6-burner Smeg gas stove and stainless rangehood anchor the space, while a Euromaid dishwasher, a Puratap filtered tap and a double sink beneath the window keep everyday life easy - solid bones and generous in size with every scope to reimagine to your taste.
Accommodation is wonderfully flexible, with up to six generous bedrooms - most with built-in storage - and all commodious in size. Two of the bedrooms enjoy their own private ensuites: one boasts an attached retreat, wardrobe space or study nook, while the other is accessible only from the outside and appeals to buyers seeking a great self-contained granny flat.
The central family bathroom is tiled floor-to-ceiling and finished with a jetted spa bath, a mosaic feature strip and warming heat lamps.
Outside, the substantial allotment is a blank canvas awaiting your customisation - a lone Frangipani tree sets a simple scene while a brick-paved driveway, secure perimeter fencing and an automatic gate across the driveway provides seamless access to one of two carports. The second carport is secured via a roller door and accessible from Mahar Street.
Located in a prime position on Magill Road with cafes, shops, schools and eateries at your doorstep, plus easy access to the Adelaide Hills and desirable zoned for sought-after schooling, opportunities of this scale are a genuine rarity. Renovators, investors and growing families alike are invited to seize it!
