The only thing better than this c1920s brick bungalow on the brink of its best life ever is its detached retro granny flat on a transformational 825m2 block…
We've seen them before. There are very few left. Those idle, humble homes eager to come of age at the hands of keen renovators or grow with a new family - this pretty, 3-bedroom classic is one hell of a contender.
On rambling grounds with a massive undercover rear verandah, secure carport and shed, its reno-ready originality leads with lofty decorative ceilings, polished timber floorboards, and half its floorplan gifted to a gracious living room with brick fireplace, an adjoining dining room, and a study/3rd bedroom.
Whether you subdivide, start over, extend, or impress your style all through it - STCC - the vintage kitchen with a freestanding gas stove, the upgraded bathroom, and the outdoor accessible laundry (with 2nd WC) are clear starting points.
And come what may for the detached granny flat with its practical kitchenette and bathroom flaunting home office or isolation haven potential: glam it up, tear it down, or tweak its rare vintage quirk.
A pivot from its character street finds the head-clearing trails of St. Clair, a 300m dash to the Cheltenham train station, plus a Torrens Road link to the Port, CBD, Croydon cafes, West Lakes retail, and vibrant Semaphore Road and its iconic foreshore.
On a block this big, bring your plans - Herbert deserves them…
