House for Sale in Colonel Light Gardens
Reno-Ready Red-Brick Villa in Adelaide's Character-Rich South.
- 4 Beds
- 1 Bath
- 1 Car
Here it is! The chance to secure a prize holding along one of Colonel Light Garden's famed tree-lined avenues and restore or reimagine a charming double-fronted villa - perhaps incorporating a dreamy rear extension (STCC) to capitalise on this generous 702 sqm (approx.) block.
Streetside, the property is already picturesque with lush front lawn and a deep porch shading the villa's red brick façade - just add your preferred fencing to complete the look, perhaps with a one-click slider over the driveway currently running down the side of the house to a secure single garage.
Inside, the place needs a total overhaul, so you won't be moving in straight away, but the bones are good and the panelled ceilings lovely and high. Two big bedrooms with light-infusing double windows branch off a wide entry passage that opens into a large central lounge, the adjacent dining room (or potential bedroom) leading to what was once fully set up as the kitchen.
Rounding out the existing floorplan is another bedroom - the largest of the potential 4 - a presentable bathroom with a shower, tiled laundry and powder room - the back of the house framed by a verandah overlooking a grassy fenced backyard with established shrubbery and a shed.
Your mind will be racing after your first inspection because there's so much value to be added to this property with some creative design thinking that reworks/extends the layout to introduce a gourmet culinary hub, probably an extra bathroom, and elevate the outdoor entertaining offering (STCC).
The good news is, you can't put a foot wrong when it comes to investing in this family-friendly neighbourhood, only 8 km to town. Well-serviced by public transport, shopping hubs and popular state and private schooling, it's brimming with heritage-style homes and recreational facilities/green space - ensuring it will continue to enjoy solid capital growth well into the future.
