Overview
Mid-Century Magic in a Blue-Ribbon Foothills Location.
Rare opportunities like this to secure a substantial land holding in Torrens Park are infrequent. This enchanting 3-bedroom mid-century family home, complete with a sparkling blue pool, is perfectly positioned to benefit from proximity to esteemed private schools, trendy shopping and dining areas, and beautiful natural reserves. The property invites new custodians to create lasting memories in a coveted foothills locale.
Constructed in 1960, the residence sits gracefully among mature gardens on a notable corner block of approximately 1,030 square meters. The home's well-preserved state is evident throughout, offering a welcoming ambiance with character-rich details such as high ceilings, large picture windows that flood interiors with light, and striking Jarrah floorboards that lend warmth and elegance.
The architectural appeal is enhanced by a split-level design, with the upper sleeping zone featuring newly installed carpeting. This level includes three bedrooms, each bright and generously proportioned, complemented by a main bathroom with a shower and bathtub as well as a separate toilet. The master bedroom benefits from views over the front garden. Additional convenience is provided by a second bathroom/laundry area adjacent to the entrance foyer.
Entering through decorative etched glass double doors leads to a spacious lounge and dining area boasting Jarrah floors. This hub is equipped for comfort with a prominent combustion heater ensuring coziness in cooler months, and flows seamlessly to an alfresco patio via French doors, ideal for indoor-outdoor entertaining. The kitchen is efficiently designed with a raised breakfast bar, electric appliances, and ample storage space. It overlooks a family room that could easily be converted into a fourth bedroom, extending to a balcony that offers tranquil views of the pool, especially enchanting against the backdrop of a golden sunset.
The property offers scope for modification or expansion, including potential to add an additional storey subject to council consent, opening exciting possibilities to capture panoramic coastal views or to develop rear access via Adams Street. Positioned advantageously in the Foothills, this location promises ongoing value appreciation.
Accessibility is excellent, with Scotch College and Randell Park Reserve within walking distance along Braemar Road. A short five-minute drive leads to Mitcham Square, while the city centre is only approximately 15 minutes by car. Residents can enjoy the best of both worlds — a peaceful, natural setting alongside urban amenities.
