Last Listing description (October 2023)
Wonderfully positioned within this inner pocket of the thriving west and gracing a near 900m2 parcel of land sits the opportunity of a lifetime for those in search of that elusive character home brimming with exciting short and long-term potential.
A beautiful c.1926 sandstone-fronted Villa lovingly maintained and not without a range of modern contemporary updates, including a superb self-contained studio with full kitchen, bathroom and laundry, has 22 Barham Street delivering a footprint primed for a new family to takeover and elevate this property to stellar new heights.
With all the familiar and sought-after features we've come to love such as soaring ceilings, solid timber floors and lofty, light-filled bedrooms - this big block beauty takes no exception as a large formal lounge gives way to three generous bedrooms before a sparkling updated and extended kitchen and dining zone creates an inviting hub ready for the morning rush, cooking with company, cocktail hour to kickstart your weekends right through to delicious dinners and barbeque lunches that spill out to the sail-shaded alfresco.
Functionality and feature included from the get-go, you'll find a generous main bathroom with a second WC adjoining an inspiring home office/study, along with ducted AC, ceiling fans for gentle flow, as well as bill-busting solar panels. The seamless addition of the studio offers larger or generational families unrivalled appeal too as it overlooks a sunbathed backyard and lush lawn perfect for the kids to play or family pet to roam.
Lifestyle potential abounds too with all the room to expand, extend or redesign when the time is right (STCC) on such a mouth-watering block, while everyday conveniences are major drawcards that can't be overlooked either. From strolling distance to Allenby Gardens Primary School, nearby ovals and reserves, as well as the bustling Welland Plaza for all your daily essentials, to being less than 10-minutes to Adelaide CBD and only 12-minutes to the soft sands of Grange Beach - a character home on a huge block impeccably located between the city and the sea don't come around often!
