Last Listing description (September 2025)

Behind a beautifully updated facade and lush tropical gardens, this Torrens titled 1930s home on an easy-care 437m2 offers comfortable contemporary living with room for all in seaside Somerton Park.

Entering the home via a covered porch, take in a classic wide central hallway that sets the tone for a home of quality over a total 261.4m2 of living.

Four generous double bedrooms reside under the original main roof and boast fireplaces set within ornate mantles, with built-in robes to three, and timeless timber floors. They share use of the large, ageless monochrome bathroom, complete with feature floor tile and a sumptuous claw bath.

To the rear of the home, the main bedroom levels up with a walk-in robe and private ensuite, designed in keeping with the classic style of the main bathroom.

Before you reach the open plan living the first living room presents itself, creating an additional space to relax and unwind, with French doors guiding you out to the verandah.

A 6x6m enclosed decking offers light and airy undercover outdoor living beneath a lofty raked pergola. Including a tranquil water feature and shade blinds, it's an ideal summer treat to return to after a summer's day on the sand.

Finally, open plan living completes the picture for family living. A timber galley kitchen includes plenty of storage and bench space, a stainless steel dishwasher and induction cooktop.

Flowing effortlessly to the lounge and dining, a favourable west-facing rear ensures lovely afternoon light, with vast glass doors drawing it all in.

From this fabulous coastal location you can become a regular at the cafes lining Broadway and Partridge Street, including The Organik and the beautifully placed Broadway Kiosk, and dine out at Sabai, Seafaring Fools and Mediterranean Cafe Ristorante.

Complete your shopping with ease at the nearby Romeo's, and find everything you could possibly need along Brighton Road, from shopping and medical, to gyms, tennis courts and hotels.
