Gracing a remarkable 1,923sqm Glen Osmond allotment directly opposite prestigious Seymour College, 8 Gilles Road is a grand c.1935 residence with a stately presence and a scale rarely offered in this tightly held eastern suburb. A commanding stone frontage, column-lined porch and gated dual driveway set an impressive first impression. Inside, soaring ceilings, decorative plasterwork and character-rich interiors show timeless yesteryear craftsmanship. A wide entry foyer opens into the elegant formal lounge and dining, where ornate fireplaces and generous proportions keep the home's beautiful period personality.
The updated kitchen adds another layer of comfort, with rich timber cabinetry, long benchtops and quality Miele appliances beneath charming leadlight windows. Four comfortable bedrooms include one opening to a sunroom or study. Two bathrooms serve the home: a central bathroom with separate shower and bath, plus a second bathroom with shower and WC off the laundry. At the rear, an expansive casual living and dining extension trades formality for a relaxed family atmosphere, its extensive gallery windows bringing the garden greenery right into view.
Beyond the home, deep lawns and a sizeable garage/workshop make the sheer scale of this holding impossible to ignore. Refresh the existing spaces or restore its period glamour. Or look further ahead and create a striking multi-level residence (STCC), with upper levels offering the potential to capture sweeping city views. This is a rare chance to secure land of this size in a prestigious foothills pocket.
Families will love having Seymour College just across the road, with Linden Park Primary and Glenunga International High School moments away. Burnside Village covers your retail indulgences, destination cafés and restaurants dot Glen Osmond Road, and weekend escapes to Stirling or Bridgewater are just as on the agenda as the cosmopolitan atmosphere of The Parade. With Adelaide CBD only 10 minutes away, few postcodes pair suburban elegance with eastside convenience quite like this.
