19 Lincoln Avenue, Colonel Light Gardens, SA 5041 - More Details
$1,510,000
With its wide, tree-lined streets home to charming historic abodes such as this gorgeous 4-bedroom stone-fronted red brick bungalow, and an enviable position halfway between Adelaide's bustling city centre and the tranquil surrounds of several national parks, it's no wonder Colonel Light Gardens is such a sought-after suburb by sophisticated buyers who know a good investment when they see it.
Tucked well back from the street behind an attractive fence, trimmed hedges, leafy trees and lush lawn, this property is impressive from the get-go - but it's the character home that is the centrepiece. Here, classic features like open fireplaces and glossy original timber floorboards are showcased through the spacious front rooms, blending effortlessly with a contemporary extension out back that's added valuable social space - including an elegant kitchen, a study and a fourth bedroom - to an already expansive footprint.
Ducted AC is among the home's modern upgrades, keeping most bedrooms, as well as the open-plan kitchen, dining area and family room out back, comfortable year-round. Elsewhere, rooms are fan-cooled, with a stunning original open fireplace in the front living space and a more contemporary, but still charming, combustion heater chosen to keep toes toasty in the rear family room.
Of the four bedrooms, the front-facing master and the new addition out back have ensuites. The master's is super-sized and boasts a corner spa bath and separate shower, with this retreat also equipped with a walk-in robe. The back bedroom's ensuite is two-way, opening onto a vine-covered rear pergola, creating what could be a handy teen's retreat. While they're young though, your little ones will be in raptures with the oasis that's out back - a verdant green space with loads of lawn to set up trampolines and play equipment, and shady nooks to while away sunny days in dreamy imagination!
Dragging yourself away from this Eden won't be easy but when work, school or the need for a city or Hills' trip calls, it's reassuring to know everywhere is nearby. A short walk will get you to the local primary school and Mitcham train station, or zip out from the double garage or under the carport and be at Mitcham Shopping Centre, Unley High or Belair National Park all in well under 10 minutes.
