A soulful C1920's bungalow with true freedom at its feet

Auction Sat, 6th Sep - 10am (usp) If you want to know what true family freedom feels like, look not a leafy street further than this C1925 character bungalow on a life-changing 1234sqm slice of tightly-held and highly-sought Lower Mitcham. With a block this deep comes a frontage that commands your attention and leaves you wanting more. What you'll discover behind its classic bungalow facade is a beautifully preserved 4-bedroom family home with a curious dual-level addition and a full-size tennis court at its boundless rear. Its northern orientation ensures the morning sun dances around the two front bedrooms - shining a revealing spot on its original Baltic pine floors, soaring ceilings and open-fireplaces. An eat-in kitchen also sits within the original footprint, allocating nearly 20sqm of roaming room at the feet of its shaker-style cabinetry, dishwasher, deep storage and an oversized Falcon vintage-style oven that will have avid home cooks weak at the knees. Draped in rich timbers and extensive glazing, the rear addition swaps 'cookie cutter' for something with soul - and rises to a second level with its own retreat, study nook, bathroom and a gloriously elevated vantage point over the street and rear gardens. Grab a bottle of your finest from the cellar, take it to the rear patio and plot the summer to come. A marqueed party on the lawn? Epic cricket battles? A chance to install the pool of your dreams? Beyond the home, tree-lined streets lead you to the hum of Mitcham's shops, cafés and cinema. The train station is minutes away, making the city closer than it feels, while a choice of Adelaide's finest schools - Scotch College included - wait within easy reach. You're free.
