7 Wilkins Street, Glengowrie, SA 5044 - More Details
$1,545,000
Over 30 years with the same family tells you something. They came, they stayed, they extended - and evolved this C1955 classic into a home that finds the sweet spot between sprawling family sanctuary and resort-style retreat.
Spreading out across a generous 724sqm, 7 Wilkins Street starts with timeless good looks and gets bigger, better, and considerably more fun as it goes.
High ceilings and polished timber floors set the first impression, leading through a generous formal lounge warmed by a gas log fire before flowing into a dedicated dining room with plenty of space to bring everyone together.
At its heart, the kitchen knows how to host a full house. Granite benchtops, stainless-steel appliances, and extensive storage keep things polished and practical, while a wide island hosts every moment from breakfast rush to final pour without missing a beat.
Two bedrooms and a Federation-style bathroom keep things classic in their own original wing, then the floorplan changes gear.
A considered rear extension adds two more bedrooms and a second bathroom before letting loose in a bright family room, where rich Jarrah floors run underfoot and northern light points you straight towards the main event.
Outside.
An enormous north-facing alfresco doesn't just extend the living footprint; it practically doubles it. Ziptrack blinds, ceiling fans, and strip heating keep it social through all four seasons, while a bar and barbecue station ensure zero break in the conversation.
Beyond, lawn gives kids and pets plenty to claim before a fully tiled, solar-heated pool takes the backyard firmly into holiday mode. Shaded, private, and primed for long summer days, it's the kind of centrepiece that quickly becomes the heart of every summer.
Even the practical stuff gets its own place. A separate rear utility yard keeps it out of sight, with established fruit trees, room for veggie beds and a shed taking care of tools, toys and weekend projects.
Enjoy ample off street parking with a double carport as well as drive-through access to the backyard.
Then there's the lifestyle beyond the front gate.
Hazelmere Road Reserve is an easy stroll away, while Glenelg and Brighton put beach days, coffee runs and Jetty Road buzz within minutes. The Morphett Arms becomes your local, public transport along Morphett Road keeps the commute simple, and zoning for Glenelg Primary – with Sacred Heart and Westminster nearby – puts plenty of schooling choice within easy reach. All with the CBD around 20 minutes away.
A lifestyle base with every box ticked and your next era firmly in its sights – welcome home.
