A Century of Character, A Lifestyle of Possibilities
Some homes simply have a story to tell. Built in 1926, this charming double brick bungalow brings together original heritage craftsmanship with the flexibility to embrace modern living. Rich in character, filled with personality and offering far more than first meets the eye, this Torrens Title home is an inviting opportunity to enjoy a piece of Colonel Light Gardens' history while making it entirely your own.
Step inside and discover the enduring charm of a home that has stood the test of time. Soaring, highly ornate ceilings enhance the sense of space, while beautifully polished timber floorboards and a traditional brick fireplace bring warmth and character.
Designed to adapt to the changing needs of everyday living, the home offers a wonderful balance of traditional charm and practical versatility. French doors off the primary bedroom open into a sun-drenched sunroom or home office, complete with an abundance of natural light and polished timber floors, providing an inspiring space to work, create or relax. Nearby, the character bathroom stands out as a true period centrepiece, featuring a classic free-standing clawfoot bathtub, brass hardware, green vanity and stained-glass leadlight windows. Ducted evaporative cooling and gas heating add year-round comfort, complementing the home's enduring appeal. Comfort has been upgraded behind the scenes: the roof space was fully cleared of old insulation, vacuumed clean and re-insulated with new R[X] Earthwool batts. Together with the double brick walls, ducted evaporative cooling and gas heating, it makes for a character home that's comfortable all year round.
This bright and welcoming kitchen seamlessly pairs character charm with modern functionality. Crisp white subway tile splashbacks, neutral cabinetry, and warm original timber floors create a timeless backdrop, while the wrap-around benchtop provides abundant space for meal preparation and entertaining. Designed for effortless everyday living, the space comes fully equipped with a built-in oven, electric cooktop, stainless steel dishwasher, a dedicated microwave niche, and generous overhead storage to keep countertops clutter-free.
Adding another dimension to the property is the studio, complete with tiled flooring, a distinct bedroom and living space, ensuite, and its own kitchenette with sliding glass door access. Whether accommodating extended family, welcoming guests, providing independence for older children or creating a dedicated space for creative pursuits, this valuable addition opens the door to a variety of lifestyle possibilities.
Outside, flexibility continues with secure access through the electric front gate leading to a wide paved driveway, long carport, expansive gravel parking apron, and valuable rear lane access. These practical features offer freedom for households with multiple vehicles, additional storage needs or simply those who appreciate having options, all while retaining the charm of this established character setting.
The established back garden is a gardener's delight, with at least six mature fruit trees including, peach, apple, pear, quince, and a very thriving lemon tree offering seasonal harvests right at your back door.
Enjoy the character of this much-loved garden suburb, with leafy streets, local parks, cafes and neighbourhood shops all close by. Mortlock Park, Colonel Light Gardens Primary School, Mitcham Square Shopping Centre and public transport are within easy reach, while Adelaide's CBD is just a short drive away. A location where community spirit and everyday accessibility come together beautifully.
