Oozing that quintessential Colonel Light Gardens charm and freedom over a generous parcel, this C1926 character home was built - and extended - for the best years of your life, enviably placed on a wide street that glows purple when its jacarandas bloom.
Following that classic script of four main rooms, each fed by a sweeping hallway; the original section of this symmetrical, eye-pleasing abode serves up to three equally spacious bedrooms and a central formal lounge that showcases the home's high ceilings and ornate fireplaces.
Speaking of high, the cathedral ceilings of the sky-lit family room addition rise to the heavens, creating a wonderful sense of space where a chef-designed Farquhar kitchen - with stone benchtops and a 900mm Smeg oven/cooktop - forms the stylish hub of this consummate entertainer.
The alfresco pavilion has a pitched roof of its own and features an elevated view over the lawns, swing set, cubby house, powered shed and handcrafted pizza oven in a delightful rear yard with plenty of room for a pool and iPad-free play on its to-do list.
A short amble from several reserves, Mortlock playground/oval, Colonel Light Gardens Primary School, an RSL that brings the community together, and Mitcham's cinema, supermarkets, cafes and specialty stores; there are many reasons why this special suburb - just 12 minutes from the CBD - is so tightly held. It's your turn.
