31 Second Avenue, Cheltenham, SA 5014 - More Details
$900,000 | Auction
An enduring reminder of Cheltenham's past, this character bungalow wears its time-honoured patina with pride, pairing its decorative ceilings, fireplaces and timber floors with practical updates and the freedom of a deep 572sqm parcel within easy reach of St Clair.
Built in 1930, its charming sandstone and classic gabled silhouette holds its place in a changing streetscape with the reassuring presence of a home made to last.
Ninety-six years and several updates later, the original footprint stands as a comfortable three-bedroom home with a wide central hall, ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning, an updated bathroom and an open rear living zone, leaving its next owner free to enjoy it immediately or use the land behind it to plan something more ambitious.
Three robed bedrooms preserve the generous proportions of the home's beginnings, led by a spacious main with built-in joinery and an exposed-brick fireplace, while the formal lounge places quiet nights in beside a carved timber mantle, cast-iron insert and shelving eager to store your leather-bound book collection.
The kitchen and casual living zone mark the point where decades meet, matching timber cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, a walk-in pantry, breakfast bar and a playful pop of green with an excuse to make mid-week dinners around the table a thing again.
Even the black-and-white bathroom strikes up a conversation between eras, combining checkerboard floors and geometric border tiles with a modern vanity and shower-over-bath arrangement, while a second WC adds another layer of everyday practicality.
Beyond the back door, an exceptionally long verandah stretches from dining to lounging beneath its broad roof, opening to a substantial lawn, established plantings, a standalone garage and the depth to imagine a family-sized extension, swimming pool or completely new garden composition.
St Clair Village, its railway station, wetlands and recreation precinct place groceries, coffee, city-bound trains and open-air leisure within easy reach, while Port Adelaide, West Lakes, Semaphore and the CBD widen the lifestyle radius without loosening the home's enduring connection to Cheltenham.
