Famed for its city/The Parade walkability and a hip dining scene of its own anchored by popular spots like MENSA and Tell Henry, Kent Town tops the wish-lists of both savvy investors and eager owner-occupiers - and 2/2-8 College Road could be your Golden Ticket to staking claim here! Attractively updated inside while retaining the best of its original features (high ceilings and solid timber floorboards), this one-bedroom row-style 'apartment' is part of a single-level character structure with a charming façade.
Inside, a cosy carpeted street-facing lounge connects to a spacious open bedroom with built-in robes and a skylight-lit combined kitchen/meals area with textural wood-wall panelling. The kitchen's been refurbished with modern cabinets/bench tops and electric appliances, while the adjacent bathroom/laundry sports contemporary tiling, a glass-enclosed shower and good storage.
The compact rear courtyard offers a place to sun-dry clothes or enjoy a coffee or sundowner, but you're more likely to be out-and-about, at one of the cafes up the street or the Kent Town Hotel! Only 1km from town, it's a breezy stroll to work, university or a spot of shopping through the leafy East Parklands or Uber there and back, guilt-free every day! City-bound buses can be hailed just down the street, and it's an easy run to ALDI and the retail heart of The Parade.
