Last Listing description (March 2024)

What is first and foremost a C1920 character bungalow to call home on the cusp of Marryatville's prized public schools, historic hotel, supermarket and theatre is also a rare opportunity to simultaneously run a business or let someone else supplement your income.

Welcome to 217 Kensington Road; a regal home with two large office spaces to go with its three nicely sized bedrooms, multiple living zones and a rear garden that hushes the passing world and would say, 'yes please' to any future extensions.

It's also nice and quiet within this solidly built and highly dependable home featuring lofty ceilings, lashings of natural light and a floorplan that will adapt to your changing needs.

Those two spacious offices were added to the western side of the home and feature external access so clients and business owners alike can come and go without disturbing those going about their daily business in the home itself.

The French doors of the central living zone ensure you can create an internal connection from the bungalow to the addition, making it easy to turn those offices into bedrooms and/or living spaces on a whim.

Think of it as a home that grows with you - and for your growing ambitions, ready at any time for your own personal touches, perfectly placed within arms reach of The Parade, Pembroke School, Loreto College, Burnside Village and the CBD itself. First and foremost a home. Forever an enviable lifestyle.
