Auction On Site, Saturday 18th October at 1.30pm (USP)
Lovingly held by the same family since its construction in 1926, this original character home is being offered to the market for the very first time. Nestled in the heart of ever-popular Colonel Light Gardens, it presents a truly rare opportunity to secure an address steeped in history, charm and potential, a place where the next chapter is ready to be written.
Positioned proudly on a corner allotment with dual frontage to Penang Avenue and Winston Avenue, this home sits behind a generous garden, offering space to create a striking street presence through landscaping. The double-width, double-length carport provides excellent off-street parking, with side gate access to the rear garden enhancing practicality.
Inside, the home retains all the warmth of its era. A large entry hall sets the tone, leading to four bedrooms, two with built-in robes and cupboards, each offering space and flexibility. The formal living room features a ceiling fan, heater, and sliding doors opening directly to the carport, creating a versatile connection between indoors and out.
The kitchen sits at the rear, neat and functional with ample bench and cupboard space, plus a gas cooktop and oven. The bathroom, laundry and separate toilet remain in original condition, providing the perfect foundation for a complete renovation tailored to your style.
Outdoors, the rear garden is a blank canvas ready to be transformed, whether it's an entertainer's haven, a lush family retreat, or something entirely your own. Additional structures include a large shed, studio and smaller shed, offering plenty of storage and creative potential.
Every detail of this home whispers opportunity. For the visionary buyer, this is a chance to preserve its character, renovate and reimagine, or create something truly spectacular in one of Adelaide's most tightly held suburbs.
The location, too, is second to none. Zoned to Colonel Light Gardens Primary and Unley High School, and close to Springbank Secondary College and St Therese School, it also offers an easy 12-minute commute to the Adelaide CBD, weekends spent at Carrick Hill and Brownhill Creek, and just 15 minutes to the coastline. Here, blue-chip living meets lifestyle convenience.
