AUCTION: Saturday 30th October 2021 at 10:30am (Unless Sold Prior)
The meticulously restored street frontage of this c1900s double fronted bluestone cottage is a showcase of possibilities for breathing new life within and all importantly situated on Torrens title 301m2 approx allotment.
Surrounded by other character cottages and homes and a stone's throw from beautiful Victoria Park, this four-bedroom property has great potential to further capitalize with absolute confidence, boasting well-proportioned rooms, lofty ceilings, original timber floors, deep skirtings and a leadlight surround at the front door.
Entry from the street is through the gate of the white picket fence, along the path and up to the tessellated tiled verandah, with garden beds either side just waiting for cottage plantings.
The property has been recently re-roofed and re-pointed and has a superb street presence.
The front door leads to the hall with two bedrooms opening either side. You then have the separate lounge room with fireplace and the well-proportioned cellar is accessed from here. The third bedroom is accessed off the lounge room.
What could be the master bedroom, with study alongside, is at the rear, and all bedrooms and the lounge area have open fireplaces with timber surrounds.
The rear of the home, including the lounge/kitchen/meals area is north facing and there is so much potential to create a private garden oasis. There is valuable vehicle access at the rear from Tomsey Lane.
Halifax Street is one of the southeast corner's most desirable locations, with its numerous laneway streets and abundance of historic cottages and houses. Across the road from 354 is historic St John's Anglican Church and further along is the famed Victoria Park, which is generating new excitement for its developing wetlands environment.
Hutt Street with its diverse shopping and dining strip is an easy walk in the other direction. It's a short walk along to the buzz of the city's East End.
The award-winning Frewville Foodland and the popular shopping precincts of Norwood Parade and Burnside Village are an easy drive away.
The area is zoned for Adelaide Botanic High School, Adelaide High School and Gilles Street Primary School. Quality private education is available at Christian Brothers College, St Peter's College, Prince Alfred College and Loreto College.
An extraordinary opportunity of acquisition in this most sought after locations.
