38 Avenue Road

Highgate SA 5063

Set on 1717sqm, this imposing home and impeccably landscaped gardens set the foundation for a magnificent residence. As you enter through the grand wide hallway you will begin to understand the pedigree of the character that is to follow. Impressive leadlight throughout, hall archway, coved ornate high ceilings, high skirtings, polished floor boards, elaborate cornices, double sized rooms, solid doors, and much much more!

Four of the five bedrooms flow traditionally from the main hall. Of these, three have feature fireplaces and large built in robes. Currently the master bedroom is using the adjoining bedroom as a dressing room.

The formal living is decorated in the highest taste, featuring a fireplace, coved ornate ceiling, top quality window furnishings and exquisite leadlight windows. This would be the perfect place to relax with a glass of wine and book at the end of the day, or provide that extra exclusive space for entertaining for special occasions.

The brand new quality kitchen incorporates many drawers and cupboards, large breakfast island bench, all covered with hard wearing Caesar stone bench tops, Smeg 900mm gas stove with matching range hood, smeg dishwasher and double sink. Added extra of a butlers kitchen and a huge pantry.

Entertaining or preparing dinner for your family and closest friends will be an experience you enjoy as they sit, relax and appreciate the home and its stunning surroundings.

Two gorgeous renovated bathrooms are finished in the highest quality. One with luxurious spa, and another with oversized luxury bath, you will have the choice as to where to indulge. There is also a spacious powder room with a toilet, and another 4th toilet outside near the pool.

The rear of the home features a quality extension of grand proportions. You will love the feeling of space which effortlessly connects to the tranquil gardens and sparkling pool, through the two sets of extra wide French doors. Huge open plan living and dining adjacent to the kitchen makes it the heart of the home.

The established gardens create a feeling of serenity and seclusion you will only experience in an estate of these dimensions. Everyone from the youngest to the oldest member of your family will love strolling through the alleys of white roses and luscious array of other trees and shrubs. If you love reading you can use the grand rotunda, or the sprawling verandah, the formal fountain area, and then maybe a seat under one of the many trees. If you are feeling energetic do a few laps of the solar heated swimming pool - a new addition to the gardens - finished in November 2012.

Upstairs the retreat is private, peaceful and quietly tucked away, with two big balconies with amazing views and a large ensuite.

Situated in a lovely tree-lined street, minutes to the city and close to Highgate , Malvern, Unley and Mitcham shopping centres, with an excellent selection of quality schools, and transport.
