Last Listing description (September 2024)

A C1925 bungalow extended to a level of perfection more than worthy of its coveted Glenelg East address - 8 Lapthorne Street ticks every box in record time.

Embracing every inch of a sweeping 692sqm corner allotment, a sandstone-wrapped frontage harmonises with the heritage streetscape, established gardens and white picket fence enveloping the frontage in truly timeless appeal.

Canopied by soaring ornate ceilings, lined with polished timber floors, and wrapped with picture windows, deco detailing is elevated by a crisp contemporary palette across a family footprint. Four generous bedrooms are fully serviced by an updated family bathroom, delivering a floorplan you can grow in to, rather than out of.

Optimised for contemporary flow, a central lounge with grand marble fireplace guides to an expansive rear living area that soaks up endless light from northern orientation, overseen by galley-style kitchen for smooth service. Layers stone benchtops, a full suite of high-end stainless-steel appliances, and walk-in pantry, it's a home hub sure to elevate even the simplest recipe.

Sliding doors unite with vast gabled pergola, extending the living zones alfresco and providing abundant space for outdoor dining and lounging simultaneously, while a frameless glass fence guarantees uninterrupted views across the sparkling waters of the in-ground pool, creating an entertaining epicentre for summers spent outdoors.

Completing the equation with true multi-purpose functionality, a freestanding studio ready for your bespoke adaptation. Whether you're seeking scope for multi-generational living, a supreme work-from-home suite, music room, home theatre, yoga studio, dojo, playroom, or even all the above, it's a retreat designed to grow and change as you do.

Prime placement means it's a short walk to anywhere - Da Costa Reserve or the Esplanade to burn off energy, Glenelg East IGA for the milk run, The Holdy for a knock-off, or The Broadway for your morning caffeine hit, while iconic Jetty Road is only 5 minutes away for a smorgasbord of eateries, retail shopping, gyms and cinemas. Zoned for and walking distance to Glenelg Primary School and Brighton Secondary College, and only 20 minutes to the CBD for an easy school run and commute.

Everything that defines coastal living wrapped up in a deco bow - you'll never look back.
