Overview

Timeless Bungalow Elegance Meets Modern Fullarton Living

Rich in character and beautifully positioned in one of Adelaide's most desirable city-fringe neighbourhoods, this charming c.1920s Fullarton bungalow offers a wonderful combination of timeless architectural appeal, generous living spaces and everyday convenience. From its classic pitched roof, striking red-brick façade and welcoming wraparound verandah, the home's period charm is immediately apparent. Step inside and discover a residence that celebrates its heritage, with a wide central hallway, lofty ceilings, generously proportioned bedrooms and an elegant formal lounge featuring ornate ceiling details and original fireplaces. Thoughtfully refreshed finishes bring a contemporary touch while preserving the home's distinctive character. At the rear, a spacious extension creates a light-filled family and entertaining area, beautifully framed by bay windows and French doors that invite natural light and connect indoor living with the outdoors. At the heart of this space, the well-appointed kitchen features generous timber benchtops, crisp cabinetry, a gas cooktop and dishwasher, seamlessly connecting with the family and dining areas. Whether hosting friends or enjoying relaxed family time, this inviting space is designed to make everyday living effortless. Four generously proportioned bedrooms retain the home's original charm, each featuring built-in robes, with two showcasing their own period fireplaces. A separate, versatile study offers an ideal work-from-home space or the flexibility to accommodate changing family needs, including the option of a fourth bedroom, subject to suitability. The stylish contemporary bathroom combines classic appeal with modern convenience, featuring a shower-over-bath and skylight, while a second shower is conveniently integrated into the well-equipped laundry. Comfort is assured throughout the seasons, with ducted evaporative cooling across the original front section, complemented by a split-system air conditioner, ceiling fan and wall heater in the main living area. Hybrid flooring adds a practical, contemporary finish while maintaining the home's welcoming character. Outside, a paved entertaining courtyard flows onto neatly maintained lawns and established garden beds, creating a relaxed outdoor setting without demanding extensive upkeep. The sunny front garden, long driveway and covered carport provide further everyday practicality, completing a home that balances character, comfort and convenience. The location is equally appealing. Enjoy the lifestyle advantages of living close to Unley Oval, neighbourhood playgrounds and Sturt Lawn Tennis Club. Unley Primary School is within easy reach, while the property is zoned for Glenunga International High School and conveniently located near Concordia College. Everyday shopping is well catered for with Unley Shopping Centre and Frewville Foodland nearby, while the café, boutique shopping and dining precincts along King William, Unley and Glen Osmond Roads offer plenty of options to explore. Burnside Village is also within easy reach, and with Adelaide's CBD approximately 2.5km away, this is city-fringe living at its most convenient.
