23 Durant Avenue, Rostrevor, SA 5073 - More Details
$990,000
Single-owned and shaped with an individuality that’s almost impossible to replicate, 23 Durant Avenue is a mid-century original with far more personality than a conventional renovator. Solid foundations, soaring ceilings, skylights and walls of glass create an unexpectedly bright interior, where timber detailing, built-in joinery and a distinctly retro aesthetic give buyers an incredible base to preserve, polish or completely reinvent.
The heart of the home brings the lounge, dining and updated contemporary kitchen together beneath that wonderful sense of height, with a cosy fireplace ready for winter nights and abundant cabinetry keeping the everyday practical. Two flexible bedrooms sit alongside the neat main bathroom, while upstairs delivers another sunlit room ready to serve as a third bedroom or second living retreat. It’s an intriguing footprint for buyers who value character, adaptability and the freedom to make a home entirely their own.
Then comes the extra layer that changes the proposition. Beyond the rear sunroom/utility zone, a separate rumpus retreat combines its own kitchenette and bathroom, opening possibilities for extended family or potential sublet income, while a detached office out back creates another dedicated escape for work or hobbies. Outside, the sunny courtyard, extensive shedding, long secure carport and additional driveway parking bring serious flexibility for cars, caravans and just about anything else; renovate and refurb, rent while planning your next move or explore the site’s high value development potential (STCC).
Pairing family convenience alongside the foothills lifestyle this prized eastern pocket does so well, walk the kids to Stradbroke Primary, Morialta Secondary College or Rostrevor College, while nearby parks, playgrounds and Morialta Conservation Park keep weekend adventure close to home. Romeo’s Foodland and Rostrevor Food Barn cover the local essentials, with Newton Village, Newton Central and Firle Plaza extending the shopping and café options. Add in The Parade Norwood around 10-minutes away and Adelaide CBD approximately 15 by car or bus.
