Its bluestone charm, private rear access to Pioneer Park's BBQs, courts, and playground, and huge 992m* block form only part of the appeal... This solid brick and much-loved family home - offered for sale for the first time in nearly 60 years – will stun with its abundant character features: tessellated tile bullnose verandah, stained glass entry, wide hallway with a decorative archway, polished timber floors and high skirtings, plus 4 oversized rooms all with original fireplaces and mantels, the largest with original and ornate pressed metal ceilings. The big rooms adapt to your family's needs, the 5th bedroom perhaps as an office or nursery, extra to the home's superb project and/or renovation potential (subject to planning consents.) Yet the neat, low-care backyard presents immeasurable extra value. Entertain on the rear verandah, in the rumpus room or garage-turn-rec room. A nearby outbuilding with a 2nd retro kitchen and adjoining laundry with 2nd bathroom. Or tinker in the powered workshop with plenty of storage or in the oversized garden shed. Walk to Alberton train and bus stops, the historic Port precinct, Mount Carmel College, and the sands and sounds of Semaphore, uncover potential in yesteryear's beauty… You'll love: - C1925 villa on a valuable 992m2* - Private access to rear reserve - 15.24m* frontage | 64m* depth - 1.5kW of solar - Potential to upgrade & renovate (STCC) - Upgraded roof & gutters - Ducted R/C A/C + kitchen split system - Powered workshop - Enormous recreation room - Vintage 2nd kitchen with gas stove - Indoor & outdoor bathrooms - Detached rumpus room - Bore water - 1.3kms to Alberton P.S. - And more… *If a land size is quoted it is an approximation only.
