Built C1910, this resplendent return-verandah Villa has watched Lockleys grow around it, entering the market for only the second time in its storied life - with an extension to show for it.
Its sweeping stone-laden facade - with leadlight windows and subtle elevation beyond landscaped grounds - wouldn't look out of place in Unley Park.
Inside, polished Baltic pine floors, soaring decorative ceilings, ornate fireplaces and a feature hallway arch define an original home that's aged like a fine bottle of Grange.
If you can imagine a cold winter's night with a good book in hand and a brick-laden open fireplace crackling away, you've arrived at the formal lounge - the charming pause at the heart of this 4-bedroom home.
The transition to the 1990s rear addition is softened by the eat-in kitchen with 90cm freestanding oven, dishwasher, deep storage and the longevity that only solid timber can conjure.
Across the way, an updated main bathroom with semi freestanding bath, subway tiles and walk-in shower. Modern and classic in the same breath.
With raked ceilings, a cosy fireplace and effortless transition to the pitched roof alfresco pavilion, the rear family room is where this entertainer truly lets its hair down.
Lawns sprawl, iPads stay inside (we can only hope) and kids and pets rediscover the long lost art of outdoor play on this 854sqm parcel with 90sqm of garaging.
Lockleys runs on routine: early walks along Linear Park, quick 15-minute commutes to the city office desk, summer morning dips at Henley, and Sunday club swings at Kooyonga. It's your turn to love it here.
