Last Listing description (February 2026)

Just when you think it's another classic Colonel Light Gardens Bungalow, this C1926 beauty revels a rear addition to savour and private rear reserve access you never see coming on its prized south-north plot with side access to top it all off.

With up to four equally spacious bedrooms within its original footprint, polished timber floors underfoot, two gorgeous family-sized bathrooms, a rear shed and lofty ceilings that vault for the heavens at its vast, extended rear; this is a character home that doesn't settle for ordinaryin one very special suburb.

Open the door to:

A picture-perfect bungalow that keeps its classic street presence before revealing a rear addition that lifts the home far beyond what you expect from a C1926 footprint.
A flexible layout that offers three large bedrooms plus a formal lounge, or four bedrooms if needed, each with generous proportions and period character intact.
Lofty, light-grabbing ceilings that soar in the extended rear living zone, creating a sense of scale and calm that feels more like a contemporary pavilion than an old bungalow.
Polished timber floors, decorative touches and a warm, timeless palette anchoring the original rooms with unmistakable Colonel Light Gardens charm.
A modern open-plan kitchen with stone benchtops, European appliances, a breakfast bar and easy connection to the dining and family spaces.
Two beautifully updated bathrooms sized for families, blending functionality with an elevated, considered aesthetic.
Fold down ladder to allow access to the large loft storage area.
A covered outdoor entertaining zone that connects seamlessly to the rear living area for weekend lunches, long dinners and everything between.
Private rear access to the reserve that feels like your own secret garden extension, rare even for Colonel Light Gardens.
Side access for practical everyday living, from parking to gardening to moving things with ease.
Established, well-landscaped gardens front and back, framing the home in greenery and offering plenty of space for kids, pets or quiet early evenings outdoors.
A location near Mitcham Railway Station, multiple bus routes, Mitcham Square, Scotch College and leafy local parks including Mortlock Park, stitching lifestyle and convenience into the daily rhythm

Close the door on:

Settling for dated character. The polished floors, upgraded bathrooms and modern kitchen bring comfort and heritage into the same frame.
Living in disconnected spaces. The rear family pavilion creates one flowing hub where cooking, dining and relaxing all work together.
Feeling short on green space. Private rear access to the reserve gives you a quiet escape that feels like your own.

Character homes, big blocks, green spaces and leafy, sweeping streets define this amenity-rich suburb within a moment of Mitcham Square, train stops, quaint cafes, Colonel Light Gardens Primary School, Scotch College, the coast and CBD. Special indeed.
