35 Penzance Street

Glenelg South SA 5045

Just one house in from Pier Street, the parking is strikingly good. Not that the new owners need concern themselves when their 683sqm plot gifts them both a garage at the rear and tandem carport at the front, where calming Zen gardens exploit brush-fenced privacy for coffee breaks and zoom meetings under the gazebo.

The doorbell, as everything else, chimes with delightfully restored originality as soaring ceilings and polished boards meet jewel-hued leadlight, fireplaces and some fine bungalow-era panelling that chronicles the home's style journey since 1910.

Underneath the 12-foot ceilings are spaces that are generous in dimension and flexible in layout - a classic family canvas of formal and casual living areas, substantial kitchen, cellar, two bathrooms and three double bedrooms including master with ensuite.

In the lounge, timber library cupboards flank an original fireplace retrofitted with gas coals, adding warmth and utility to the largest room, where Zen outlooks are crowned in leadlight.

Toward the rear, the dining room delves underfloor for wine stocks, shoji screens securing its privacy from the slate-tiled family room a later chapter in the home's history that underwrites modern comfort along with a spacious second bathroom/laundry combo and a painted timber kitchen awash with sunlight, storage and marble inlays.

To socialising and a wall of mingling bifolds, raked ceilings butterflied against the architectural upsweep of the entertaining pergola blond paving and UV polycarbonate tracing an all-weather path to a stone-topped outdoor barbecue kitchen with sink and rotisserie perks.

Overlooking a lawned backyard best described as secluded, the airconditioned granny flat beams with modern versatility, a double bedroom, built-in robes, shower room and a separate living area with kitchenette. Add a tiled utility, storeroom and double garage for maximum independence or convene a mancave to covet.

So close to everything, you can ditch Uber for your own two feet. Glenelg Oval for footy and cricket, The Holdy, Le Paris Plage and the Mediterranean for doorstep eats, and schools

You can take your pick on Penzance.
