One of two, gracing Springhead Road beside two homes built by two mates who left for the Great War and returned with their seeds.Standing as proudly as the palms, this sympathetically reinvented three-bedroom villa isn't just a blacksmith's legacy, but a half-acre timepiece of Mount Torrens history. Honouring its circa 1915 bluestone foundations are powder-coated original front gates, a new bullnose verandah, repointed pillars, new roofing, and electric sliding gates at the end of its stone-clad boundary walls, opening to a double carport. Cross the exposed aggregate concrete portico, and its interiors replay the same respect. Stripped back architraves draw the eye to boldly blackened 3.4m pressed metal ceilings, Federation-style light fixtures, original door handles, and Baltic pine floors that keep its era talking.All three leading bedrooms feature modern ceiling fans, tall custom built-ins and original sash windows, two offer split system comfort and decorative fireplaces, yet it's the two striking bathrooms that'll have you lost for words.The first, a stunning bedroom-turned-bathroom reincarnation of space and character, exposed brickwork and chandelier chic.As a haven of relaxation crowned by a ceiling rose, the huge living room channels the cosiness of a combustion fire, offers direct meals area access, and marries an exposed brick fireplace mantel with a corner reading nook defined by a modern drop pendant.With 1960s style lino tiles and a flash of navy, the open plan kitchen lives without boundaries – its galley form dictated by a stainless island, Bosch dishwasher, and a 900mm freestanding cooker, plus a European laundry slotting perfectly into its shaker-style joinery.  And no one will step outside without visiting the second bathroom: a textural vignette of stone, glass and inherent leadlight.Yet the magic of Mount Torrens is laid out in a backyard of abundance, best viewed from the elevated and expansive rear deck: new plantings, brick paths, old gums, ample shade across rolling lawns, raised veggie beds and chook yard, all while the Angas Creek trickles along its boundary. Discover the well, the newly concreted under-croft cellar, and the inviting firepit by the creek – complete with a concrete bridge crossing – while a stretch of boundary fencing, kept intentionally transparent, preserves the rural outlooks that join your fireside setting.110 years on, the blacksmith's handiwork remains, the palm tree still marks its past, and the half acre opens your eyes to its future scope for a sports court or family pool, STCC.And Mount Torrens – just enviable and easy minutes from Woodside – knows exactly what it is, while Palm Villa does what it ought to do for its charming township: belong here, forever.The Highlights: Circa 1915 3-bedroom Return Verandah Villa on 2100sqm allotmentNew fencing and electric sliding gates Angas Creek flows through the propertyElectric gates via Terlinga Road open to a double carport with sensor lightsExpansive elevated decking area Combustion fire + reverse cycle split system comfort throughout4 new pressed metal ceilings3 bedrooms all feature tall, built-ins and ceiling fans Capped ornamental fireplaces to 2 bedroomsGalley-style kitchen/meals area hosting a 900mm freestanding cooker and Bosch dishwasher European laundry worked into its layoutPowered under-croft cellar, with external access Updated electrics and new plumbingFully tiled bathroom with under-floor heating and dual vanitiesA bespoke 2nd/guest bathroom featuring exposed stonework and leadlightNBN connectedHot water service – new heat pumpMains water | Rainwater for gardens onlyUnused well on the propertyPowered garden shed Property Information:Title Reference: 5624/256Zoning: TownshipYear Built: 1915Council Rates: $3,099.54 per annumWater Rates: $88.00 per quarter*Estimated rental assessment: $750 - $800 per week (written rental assessment can be provided upon request)Adcock Real Estate - RLA66526Andrew Adcock 0418 816 874 Nikki Seppelt 0437 658 067Jake Adcock 0432 988 464*Whilst every endeavour has been made to verify the correct details in this marketing neither the agent, vendor or contracted illustrator take any responsibility for any omission, wrongful inclusion, misdescription or typographical error in this marketing material.
