Overview

Huge Corner on Collins! 792sqm Corner Allotment with a 22.86m Width; Outstanding Potential

This unique mid-century home, built in 1961 by a renowned South Australian builder as his family residence, offers a rare opportunity to own a property rich in character and history. After several years of vacancy, the home is presented for auction, inviting buyers to restore its original charm or explore its outstanding potential for subdivision (subject to council approval).

Situated on a generous 792 square meter corner allotment with a 22.86 meter frontage, the property boasts a near-flat terrain and dual street access from Collins Street and Need Street. The home features three bedrooms, each equipped with built-in robes, and a classic bathroom with a bath. The living areas showcase period details such as parquetry flooring, exposed stone, and slate, complemented by lofty ceilings that enhance the spaciousness.

The layout includes a parquetry floor lounge or pool room, a large open-plan family and dining area, and a classic kitchen awaiting appliance installation. Additionally, there is a front office or study with external access, providing versatile space for work or hobbies. The undercover verandah area extends the living space outdoors, perfect for entertaining or relaxing.

Parking and storage are well catered for with two carports, two driveways, three crossovers, and a solid brick garage featuring a pit (which may require remedial work). Behind the garage are two further storage areas in need of repair. The property’s configuration allows for potential subdivision into two Torrens title allotments with double garages or three row dwellings, making it an attractive prospect for developers or investors.

Located in one of Enfield’s strongest pockets, the home is just a short distance from Broadview, Prospect, and Sefton Park, offering convenient access to local amenities, schools, parks, and healthcare facilities. Please note that electricity and gas are currently disconnected, and the property will be sold on an 'as is' basis, encouraging buyers to conduct their own assessments.

Additional details include council rates of $1363.35 per annum, SA Water charges of $197.35 per quarter, and ESL of $155.10 per annum. The property is zoned General Neighbourhood (GN), providing flexibility for future development plans.

This is a rare chance to acquire a property with significant character and development potential in a sought-after location. Whether you choose to restore the home to its former glory or capitalize on the subdivision possibilities, this mid-century marvel offers a unique canvas to create your ideal living or investment opportunity.
