When it's the fundamentals that matter most - size, frontage, and a blue-chip Eastern suburb location – this endearing 1950s family classic holds all three.
As mid-century vintages quickly become memories, this virtually untouched three-bedroom home becomes a golden rarity – a ticket of pure potential on an outstanding 1133sqm (approx.) Torrens Titled allotment.
Enviably positioned between The Parade and Kensington Road, its lifestyle credentials are already proven - premium schools, Burnside Village boutiques, cafés, dining, and direct CBD access – are all within easy reach.
Beyond its brush-fenced arrival and gentle elevation, the humble home and vast block open a range of compelling options: renovate, rebuild, or explore subdivision potential (subject to planning consent) in one of the east's most tightly held and circled pockets.
The home offers the basics. A front lounge with an open fireplace and split system air conditioning, a separate kitchen, adjoining laundry, modest bathroom upgrade, and three bedrooms. At the rear, two interconnecting bedrooms meet the flexibility of a second lounge or study.
Outside, the mature gardens are one of its quiet highlights, revealing a maze of crazy paving, pockets of shade, and a sunny north-facing patio. Everything else – the workshop/shed and dual carport - becomes secondary to the property's undeniable potential.
Start over and capitalise on the postcode. The kids will discover art, music, sport, parks and reserves, Pembroke, St. Peter's Girls, and Norwood International High Schools, with city-bound transport on call.
For you, it'll be Penfolds Magill Estate for breakfast, dinner along Kensington Road, and possibly Gordon's grandest future reveal yet…
