With a century of character, 726sqm of prime inner-south land, and a postcode that never goes out of style, 52 West Parkway makes a compelling case for reinvention.
Set behind the timeless appeal of its C1926 sandstone façade, this classic bungalow has the bones, the block, and the blue-chip address to turn a little imagination into something extraordinary.
And there's plenty to work with. High ceilings and generous proportions bring all the hallmarks of its era, while a flexible footprint lays the groundwork for whatever comes next.
A formal front lounge settles around a gas heater, three bedrooms branch from the central hallway, and a family bathroom and sit-in kitchen keep the essentials covered.
Beyond, a rear mudroom, combined laundry, and versatile fourth bedroom offer further flexibility, with every space presenting another opportunity to rethink, refine, or completely reconfigure.
But the real gamechanger is waiting outside.
Stretching across a fully fenced rear yard that catches the afternoon sun, the substantial allotment opens the door to ambitions well beyond the existing footprint. Extend out, open up, drop in a pool, or create an alfresco entertaining zone that makes summer something to celebrate there's room to dream big and the scale to back it up (STCC).
And while the possibilities are impressive, the position is practically priceless. Mortlock Park and Playground put green space on your doorstep, Local Crowd and Bond & Lane have your morning coffee sorted, and Pasadena Foodland and Mitcham Square take care of the practicalities, while walking distance to Colonel Light Gardens Primary School, zoning for Unley High School, and a selection of leading private schools make family life that little bit easier. Throw in a 15-minute run to the CBD and another 15 minutes west to the coast, and you've got the kind of location that makes every lifestyle look good.
Honour the original, reinvent the interior, or give this grand old bungalow a thoroughly modern second act - whether you're a renovator with vision, a family with big plans, or an investor who knows the value of land in a location like this, the opportunity is as exciting as the address.
It's your move.
