With its stepped geometric facade, contrasting bands and projecting front window, 51 Alexandra Street has a clear Art Deco presence. Beyond the frontage sits a single-level home with two bedrooms, one bathroom and a practical broken-plan layout, all set on a generous 705msqm (approx) allotment. It is a solid starting point, for those with a dream or vision, rather than a finished statement in one of Prospects most prized streets.
In the lounge, a decorative plaster ceiling centrepiece and patterned cornices pull the eye above the dark brick fireplace surround and projecting front window alcove. This space is generous enough for a lounge room setting or could accomodate as a third bedroom.
The two further bedrooms add their own pattern through geometric parquet-look floors. At the rear, a bright sunroom links the main rooms with the garden and adds a flexible extra space.
The kitchen still wears much of its original personality, with a long bank of glass-fronted cupboards, mixed cabinetry and white tiled splashbacks. A freestanding electric cooker and stainless-steel sink sit alongside while nearby, the bathroom has a clear-screen shower, white vanity and mirrored cabinet. A separate WC serves the rear utility zone.
Out the back, the depth of the allotment becomes much clearer. A covered alfresco faces the lawn, landscaped garden beds and established trees, while metal vine trellises run through the rear grounds beside veggie beds and a chicken coop. There is room to tend the garden without giving up a place to sit, and the wider yard still leaves options open.
For someone prepared to take on a project, the appeal lies in what is already here: distinctive character, useful land and a garden that has had time to establish but offers generous scope and versatility. Keep the original quirks, reconsider the layout and shape the home around your own needs while residing in a prolific suburb in close proximity to Adelaide's heart, and close the thriving culinary and cafe scene of Propsect Road!
