Restore A Character Villa In Mile End's Historic Heartland
Out front, a bullnose verandah shades the front porch and the home's quintessential sandstone facade. Inside, across the current pre-reno/extension interior is a familiar floorplan of 2 bedrooms off the entry passage, a central lounge, and a combined kitchen/meals area opening into the laundry and bathroom. Among abundant character features are solid timber floorboards, decorative arches and cornice work, and soaring ceilings.
Both the existing bathroom with its retro vanity and tub, and the feature tiled kitchen, are functional as is. Traditionalists might wish to retain certain elements, while others will see a chance to bring the spaces back to their shell, making some cash by on selling the original decor, as part of a complete reimagining of the home's back end (STCC). The good news is, there's loads of underutilised space to extend into, with the flat backyard a mix of concrete open-air patio and lawn dotted with fruit trees.
The block itself is a substantial 503 sqm (approx.) with an 11-metre (approx) frontage, and Norma Street runs parallel to Henley Beach Road, so super convenient to city-bound buses, tasty eateries, Drakes supermarket and speciality shopping. An all-original with such incredible renovation potential (STCC) and a location as good as this is a rare find, so get on the front foot and make your move fast!
