Slab down, studs up; a beautiful bungalow with a curious case of unfinished business on a big block…
What begins with a beautifully preserved bungalow ends in an unfinished extension and the realisation that this is one very rare chance to bypass the tedious design process and prolific costs of laying a slab down and putting studs up.
Re-instating the lapsed building approval should be as simple as it will be to finish what the current owners started after they re-invigorated an original home headlined by a flexible floorplan, lofty decorative ceilings, original pine floors, fireplaces, and big, light-filled rooms…
The things that make this 1925-built bungalow a timeless part of Highgate's character-filled fabric, just a 5-minute drive from the CBD.
The extension was designed to add another space to open-plan living so you can add a study or another bedroom to an equation with scope to include a formal lounge in an original home with four mains rooms.
One of those rooms was given a second entry point for the purpose of converting the adjacent nook and near-finished bathroom into a dressing room and ensuite respectively. Welcome to the master-in-waiting.
As for that unfinished business, the time and expense you would have spent on starting from scratch can be thrown into the finishing touches. This will be fun.
And your chance to put everything you've gleaned from The Block into beautiful practice has room for an alfresco patio/pavilion on a block with some 840sqm, a garage with 3-phase power, and pool potential.
It really is the ultimate blank canvas; only this time is comes with a bungalow in the prized catchment for Unley High and Highgate Primary Schools. The best kind of unfinished business.
