38 Herbert Road, West Croydon, SA 5008

With a century under its belt and a plaque to prove it, 'Wisteria Place' has earned its standing on one of West Croydon's most sought-after streets - a painstakingly revived bungalow, rewritten at its rear with an extension to savour. 

The original bones hold firm: Baltic pine floors underfoot, leadlight windows that fracture the morning sun, decorative ceilings that haven't lost their drama, a sweeping hall feeding large, light-filled rooms. 

The lounge room still knows how to host a moody night in thanks to a combustion heater and art deco glass doors that shimmer when the fire's glow hit them. 

Rise and shine or forget about the world for a while in a main bedroom drenched in natural light, opening to the garden and finished with a full-sized ensuite complete with separate bath.

Where the original home whispers in timber and detail, the extension answers in concrete and calm. The floors are polished and heated, grounding the space in quiet luxury, carving out an all-encompassing space made for every conceivable mood and occasion. 

The kitchen - anchored by stone and steel - leans on a walk-in pantry wired for the gear that modern living demands, while sliding doors keep the space open to light, sky and garden.

And what a garden it is. A three-time Charles Sturt Spring Garden Competition winner with fruit trees that don't just grow, but perform: apples, plums, limes, apricots, lemons, all watched over by a flame tree that's earned its spotlight.

It's your time to shine in this character-laden suburb with those Queen Street cafes, public transport, Bowden's gems and the city itself on speed dial. West Croydon is calling.
