Set in a tranquil garden oasis of approx. 1257sq.m and superbly positioned in a privileged pocket, this picturesque Queen Anne Return Verandah Villa stands proudly in a street surrounded by beautiful original properties. The perfectly preserved, evocative heritage facade sets a timeless tone, reflecting the refined period integrity of a family residence built on the grand scale of the era.
The home's original period beauty is reflected in the tessellated tiles on the verandah to the generous entrance hall where the soaring ornate ceiling and decorative pillars create a sense of occasion as it dramatically unfolds to reveal beautifully proportioned formal rooms with leadlight windows, ceiling roses, open fireplaces, intricate cornices and deep skirtings. The formal dining room and living room/fourth bedroom both feature elegant dual aspect windows. Soaring ceilings with graceful arches and abundant built-in cupboards feature throughout, with accommodation comprising four bedrooms plus a study/fifth bedroom and family bathroom with bath, walk-in shower and w.c.
The eat-in kitchen is practical and functional with abundant Blackwood cabinetry, stainless steel oven, gas cooktops and Fisher & Paykel dishwasher. There is a separate laundry with side access and the former back lobby offers trapdoor entrance to a dry underground cellar.
A later rear addition, the tiled sunroom also includes the convenience of a second bathroom.
The rear of the home boasts a preferred northern orientation, is largely paved with an auto-doored double garage and double carport (alternatively, a covered outdoor entertaining area) and offers families the versatility and space for a possible extension (STCC) or plenty of room for children's ball sports and the whole family to enjoy.
This home is perfectly comfortable as is, while offering an outstanding opportunity to renovate with respect for the original integrity and an eye for today's state-of-the-art style (STCC).
This blue-chip location is enhanced by its easy proximity to both King William and Unley Roads with the vast array of shops, cafes, restaurants and boutiques. Close to excellent schools such as Walford Girls Secondary School, St Thomas Primary, Westbourne Park, Unley and Goodwood Primary Schools, opposite enchanting Heywood Park, handy to public transport and just minutes to the City.
This 1920s classic certainly delivers outstanding family lifestyle credentials and exciting future prospects.
