Last Listing description (February 2020)
For one lucky buyer, this is the opportunity to secure your entry into Melrose Park, to buy that first home, that next investment, that place you can do up and make your own and in a location that is hard to beat.
Melrose Park has stepped into the limelight for its proximity to the CBD and Adelaide International Airport, Flinders University and Hospitals and of course our beautiful beaches. All are within a 10-15 minute drive, whilst the local primary school, public tennis courts, Castle Plaza shopping Centre , Allcare Medical Centre and great local cafs are within a short walk.
This very large and versatile home was built back in 1952 and is situated on 754m2 with a north facing back yard show casing the concrete inground pool. The kids will love the summers splashing around in the pool with their friends and having been in one family for over 40 years this is literally a once in a lifetime opportunity.
A solid home that offers so much but also gives you numerous options. With a little bit of elbow grease (polish the floors boards, paint the walls and update the bathroom and kitchen), you could live in the property as is'. Alternatively, phone a friend or two and do the whole renovation that brings this home into the 21st century. What an opportunity! Of course, there's also the land: 754m with that all-important northern orientation. Seize the day to build your dream home in a location that is fast becoming one of Adelaide's most sought after suburbs.
Downstairs you'll find the huge lounge overlooking the front garden. Don't look too closely but the wall paper is ready to come down, and the floorboards are Jarrah under those carpets so call your painter and floor polisher and get ready to transform this place.
The master bedroom with built in robes and nsuite is just off the hall, whilst the main bathroom, separate toilet, central kitchen and laundry are all down here as well. Off the kitchen is the formal dining room and family room, with under stair storage/wine storage, overlooking and opening out to the totally private hedged gardens and inground pool, complete with in season walnut tree and pretty fishpond. A second bedroom with its own external entry comes off the lounge. Whilst upstairs, there are three further bedrooms and one with a great size walk in robe.
A carport, with roller door and powered garage take care of parking, whilst a separate fully lined studio provides versatility for a home office, gym or teenage retreat.
Public transport is located within easy reach and shopping's a breeze at nearby Castle Plaza, Pasadena Fresh and Mitcham Square. There's also the quaint village style shops and services along Winston Avenue and the home has the benefit of being walking distance to Edwardstown Primary School and local tennis courts just around the corner.
You're going to have to be quick. With the north facing backyard, room for renovations, possibility of an extension or to build a new home (STCC) in the ever popular Melrose Park suburb, this place won't hang around long.
