Stone Fronted Character Charm With Rewarding Possibilities

Open Inspection // Saturday 16th May 11:30am // Auction commencing 12pm *Price Guide - The property is being offered by way of public auction. No price guide will be given under the vendors' instruction, however recent sales data will be provided upon request via email and at the open inspections* A conventional two-bedroom home that turns up the charm without touching a thing - and this well-preserved museum piece on a near 700m2 (approx) canvas is every bit as exciting as its evolving inner-western address. If it's original or vintage, it's here and ripe for progress - be it a full-scale redevelopment or a respectful evolution. Beyond the ornate pillars and stone-clad façade, the large lobby greets the double entry doors of the comfortable lounge room, complete with a gas heater. To the left, both the generous first and second bedrooms converge on the original terrazzo bathroom. The central kitchen and adjacent dining room showcase a blend of two eras - the cook's wing hosting a cast iron Metters stove against mid-century cabinetry. To finish, the versatile utility/mudroom meets the laundry and separate toilet in a home that has barely deviated from its day-one design. 1950's glory has its merits: solid construction, sunlit sash windows, vintage wall sconces and high ceilings. Trades will embrace the single garage with a pit; rear doors providing drive-through access to an iron shed. The deep allotment, home to fruit trees and vegetable beds, is ready to lay the foundations for something more (STPC.) An incredible - and incredibly rare - opportunity for the nostalgic buyer, investor or astute developer willing to release this time-locked charm's rewarding potential. Features to Expect: Stone-fronted 2-bedroom conventional home, circa 1952 Drive-through single garage, with pit Charming entry lobby Generous leading lounge room featuring a gas heater Easy-care flooring throughout Retro 1950's bathroom with terrazzo floors Original kitchen with a gas cooker and a feature Metters stove Rear original laundry and separate WC Neat and level backyard with an iron shed Ducted reverse cycle air conditioning Painted 6 years ago Gas instant hot water service Zoning for Woodville High School 8km from the CBD. 5008 | Croydon Park in Focus: The glory days still exist in some pockets of Croydon Park - and this rarity is one of them. And as the inner-west quietly evolves, savvy buyers are standing by for a piece of 'Park' suburb appeal, conveniently close to the city and the coveted Prospect precinct. Zoned for Challa Gardens Primary School, the nearest transit point, Torrens Road, leads straight to North Adelaide. Armada Arndale at Kilkenny expands the retail options, while bus and train links keep the city in reach. For the young family buyer or investor, it's a suburb in an exciting transition - yet still in touch. *We make no representation or warranty as to the accuracy, reliability or completeness of the information relating to the property.
