27 Fowlers Rd, Glenunga is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 4 parking spaces and was built in 1910. The property has a land size of 1139m2 and floor size of 324m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in September 2021.
Built at the turn of the Century, this magnificent large sandstone Villa was the home of the wine merchant AW Buring. He was purportedly of generous nature and known to deliver bottles of wine to neighbours for private tastings. Opposite on Portrush road, GS Fowler bought the property now known as Seymour College. Local word has it that Granny Fowler would travel by horse and buggy along Fowlers Lane to the Uniting Church at the end (now on Glen Osmond Road) hence the narrowness of Fowlers Road as it is known today. What a remarkable piece of Glenunga's history, so cheers to the past and all the generations that have called this beautiful property 'home'.
The fifth and current owners have raised a beautiful family here with loads of laughter, stories, family and friends adding to their collage of memories. It is now time for a lucky new family to fill this home and enjoy everything it has to offer.
Enter through a pretty Wisteria and ornamental grapevine covered verandah and appreciate the outstanding period features you'll love forever.

In 1999 the home was impressively extended to match today's lifestyle and entertaining expectations to its current floor plan, including two large heritage styled bathrooms, a well appointed kitchen overlooking an expansive light filled family/dining room boasting stunning parquetry flooring throughout, and large picture windows with two sets of double French doors opening out to the rear garden. An opportunity to add a pool and enhance the total land holding exits if so desired.
Perfectly located in what is undeniably one of Adelaide's top blue chip suburbs, surrounded by beautiful homes, prestigious private and public schools, Burnside and Frewville shopping and a short drive to the CBD.
