18 Lymn Avenue, Athelstone, SA 5076

Perfectly poised to capture cooling summer breezes from its position on the high side of one of Athelstone's loftier avenues, this bay-windowed brick beauty wraps a swag of indoor social spaces, formal and casual, around an incredible 70sqm (approx.) alfresco entertaining verandah with tree-top vistas and access to a grassy yard ready for a new season of competitive family cricket! 

An alluring feature of this home is its mix of smooth and textural elements: against the clean lines of crisp white plantation shutters framing the many windows, including in the 3 carpeted bedrooms, is the earthiness of exposed brick feature walls and timber flooring in the interconnected 'sunken' formal lounge, dining room, and family/meals area. The big kitchen and family bathroom are both super functional and large spaces, with original '80s fit outs that could be transformed through some basic remodelling if you're chasing a more contemporary aesthetic. 

Stretching almost 11m in length, the timber decked, fan-cooled rear verandah is more than up to the task of comfortably hosting a big outdoor celebration under its soaring gable roof – and still have room for the pool table! After eats, the kids can play out back on the lawn or stretch their legs with a short walk to nearby Linear Park or up to Black Hill Conservation Park. One thing's for sure, Christmas will be a cracker if you land this property.
