Last Listing description (March 2026)

Auction Thu, 5th Mar - 5.30pm (USP)

The quintessential character bungalow until it isn't; behold a family home that goes from classic to 'where did that come from' thanks to an inspired Swanbury Penglase reimagining that rises to raked heavens and takes its crowd-pleasing, multi-generational layout underground.

The result is a sublimely versatile, solar-powered home that's both timeless and bold, beautifully equipped to adapt, brimming with quality and bound to a big, serene block that makes the city feel two worlds away. This is something else.

Open the Door To:

A classically beautiful character bungalow with a boundary-pushing Swanbury Penglase rear extension that goes underground and expands the home in a completely unexpected way
An original front section with high ceilings, spotted gum floors, fireplaces, wide hallways and genuinely generous double bedrooms
A statement main bathroom with a freestanding stone bath, underfloor heating, circular stone vanity and floor-to-ceiling tiling
A master bedroom designed as a suite rather than a checkbox, featuring a dedicated dressing room and a large ensuite
A deliberate architectural transition where angled ceilings and controlled light signal the move into the extension
A custom kitchen centred around an oversized Caesarstone island built to anchor gatherings, supported by a full butler's pantry, Smeg dual ovens and Miele dishwasher
A substantial 125sqm underground level with two separate living zones, complemented by a bar, cellar, oversized bedroom and full bathroom
An extension that spans multiple vast living zones and spills onto a skillion-roofed pavilion/patio
A series of recent updates, including extensive custom joinery
A 27-panel solar system combined with ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling
Extensive built-in storage and a large, practical laundry
Landscaped gardens and prolific off-street parking
Proximity to leading schools including Scotch, Mercedes and Concordia Colleges

Close the Door On:

Shallow extensions that nibble at the backyard, replaced here by a bold underground level that preserves land and privacy
One dimensional family homes, with this layout flexing easily between everyday living, entertaining, teens, guests or multi generational use
Tacked on additions, as the transition from old to new is intentional, measured and quietly dramatic

Highgate offers a rare inner south equilibrium, close to the parklands, the city and key retail corridors, but without the constant churn of traffic. Daily routines gravitate easily toward Unley and Fullarton Roads, while schooling (Scotch College, Unley High and Highgate Primary Schools included), transport, Mitcham Square, Burnside Village and green space sit comfortably within reach. You're home.
