It's not often you get to sell a home that has been in one family for nearly a century, where generation after generation have sat around the fire place, listening to news on the radio, then watching it on the black and white TV, then the colour TV, then the laptop, then the big screen TV, then the iPhone and the iPad, and who knows what will be come next. But this beautifully maintained character bungalow, now freshly painted is ready for a new family and a new chapter of kids sitting around the fire, playing in the back and walking to Colonel Light Gardens Primary. So like, so many of the homes in Colonel Light Gardens, what an incredible opportunity this is. Not because it's such an historical and well-preserved home and suburb, or because it's in such a beautiful green parkland filled suburb of wide nature strips and tree-lined streets with terrific local cafes. And not because you've got the local tennis club and courts over the back laneway, or because you're just a 15-20 min drive to the beach, the CBD, Flinders and the airport. But because like so many of the homes in the area, no one wants to move, and they're so tightly held: this one for over 90 years! Nestled on a substantial 1,079m² block along the iconic East Parkway, this four-bedroom, two-bathroom home blends timeless charm with modern comforts. The classic features of the home, such as original floorboards, high ornate ceilings, and fireplaces, immediately evoke a sense of history and warmth. Generously proportioned rooms, including a formal dining room, reflect the gracious style of its era, while thoughtful updates ensure its readiness for modern living. At the heart of the home lies a spacious open-plan kitchen and family room, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The solid hardwood kitchen is equipped with a five-burner gas cooktop, dishwasher, wall oven, and double fridge cavity, offering both functionality and style. A gas heater in the family room ensures comfort in the cooler months, while sliding doors open seamlessly to an alfresco entertaining area, creating a perfect indoor-outdoor flow. Beyond the alfresco, the vast rear garden offers a wealth of potential-whether it's a space for children to play, a future pool, or your dream landscape, the possibilities are endless. Practical features further elevate this once in a lifetime opportunity: with rear lane access to the double garage enhancing convenience, while the dual garaging-one accessible from the front, the other from the rear-provides that extra storage or workshop that is so hard to come by. The master suite, tucked privately at the rear of the home, is a peaceful retreat with an ensuite and ceiling fan, ensuring year-round comfort. The location is one of South Australia's best. Set within the highly sought-after heritage suburb of Colonel Light Gardens, just 7km from Adelaide's CBD, this home enjoys proximity to renowned universities, medical precincts, beautiful beaches, and the airport. With quality schools, vibrant cafes, and shopping all within easy reach, this is a suburb where both lifestyle and character are protected and cherished. With its unbeatable location, timeless charm, and boundless potential, this rare offering is ready to be shaped by your vision and enjoyed for generations to come. It's our absolute privilege and pleasure to bring this property, to the market. Please Call Simon Tanner with any questions about the home or for further information about the local area.
