Gracefully poised beyond pristine fencing and manicured front lawn on one of the area's most prestigious streets, this classic two-level, Basket Range stone-fronted, five bedroom residence with feature front curved balcony reaching out to the sun, presents a glorious facade and memorable street presence.

The 1228sqm (approx) property is currently home to a grand, one-owner '60s classic' residence and with a wide 18.59m (approx) frontage presents multiple possibilities! Exceedingly comfortable and offering immediate enjoyment as is, there are outstanding opportunities to sympathetically restore, enhance at your leisure, or create something spectacular on this brilliant streetscape. This well sited property is ready to play host to the next luxury showpiece with enough room for a state-of-the-art new home or side-by-side development (subject to planning consents).

Once inside, the beautiful proportions are enhanced by high decorative ceilings, cornices and original art deco touches. The ground level comprises a classic formal lounge flowing through to the formal dining room and functional eat-in kitchen. A TV room at the rear opens onto the garden and the back lobby/sun-room leads into the separate laundry with w.c. and additional shower.

Three double bedrooms feature on this level - the front main bedroom enjoys northern sun through the elegant bay window, and all are serviced by the original family bathroom boasting a terrazzo floor, art deco vanity, bath, walk-in shower and strip heater, and would respond beautifully to an update or enhancement.

Upstairs reveals a typical mid-Century rumpus room and two more double bedrooms - the fifth bedroom is fitted with built-in cupboards and doors spilling out to the curvaceous, front north-facing balcony. Attic storage and a room, plumbed and with vanity cabinet, completes this level.
The rear yard is endless with a fenced-in lawned area, garden shed, garage, and plenty of land for vegie plots, fruit trees or an inground pool. There's even the old chook house at the back of the property!

This solid and comfortable 60s original is big on family value and potential and at the very least, this home will pay its way until it's time to start afresh.

Additional features include:
• Solid brick construction
• Original timber flooring under carpeting
• Reverse cycle wall air conditioner in dining room
• Oil heater in lounge
• Linen press & abundant storage
• Carport
• Garage/workshop with roller door
• Rainwater tank
• Deep elongated driveway for multiple vehicles

Consider the close proximity to the Marden Shopping Centre. Add in the value of quick and easy access to the CBD, public transport; then consider the added value of proximity to quality schools including Marden Senior School, St Joseph's Primary, East Adelaide Primary and Felixstow Community School. Just steps to the local Royston Park Cafe, and with all amenities just moments away on Payneham Road, this prime site is ready to share the love.

It's a rare opportunity to take part in a top tier transformation in a premier lifestyle position!
