A Refreshed Bungalow With Flexible Studio Appeal

Behind its c.1936 bungalow frontage, return verandah and slate-tiled porch, 37 Drake Avenue has been beautifully refreshed without stripping away the character that gives it such warmth. Solid timber floors sweep beneath high decorative ceilings, connecting a generous lounge with adjoining dining for relaxed day-to-day living or a table full of friends. Lofty bedrooms continue the home's airy proportions, while crisp white finishes and abundant natural light bring a fresh contemporary layer to those enduring period foundations.

Further in, the kitchen has been smartly revived with sweeping bench space, abundant cabinetry and broad bay windows drawing the outdoors into view. French doors make the next move irresistible, opening straight to the covered alfresco before a huge pergola expands the outdoor entertaining footprint again. A sparkling renovated bathroom brings another polished touch, while split-system air conditioning to the dining area and heating in the lounge keep the home ready for every season without overcomplicating its easy-going appeal.

Then comes the flexibility that makes this address particularly compelling. A detached studio with its own bathroom and combined laundry gives working from home, guests or a third bedroom genuine separation, leaving the main house free to breathe. Beyond the gate, local schools, sporting grounds and Linear Park sit within strolling distance, Grange Road's cafes and eateries are moments away, with Findon Shopping Centre close by for daily essentials. Grange, Henley Beach and Adelaide CBD round out a west-side position with serious lifestyle pull.
