A classic beauty, perfect for downsizing in central Glenelg

Located centrally in the heart of Glenelg stands a stone fronted C1905,single fronted cottage offering low maintenance living, with classic charm. Its rare position just a short wander from the sand, the square, the shops & the tram makes this an attractive lifestyle purchase. With a location like this, and quality renovations throughout, this home is a move in and not worry, as all the work is done, and the low maintenance lifestyle means 'just enjoy life!' The properties original bones have been respected, restored and then set free where a voluminous, architectural addition teleports this far-reaching, solar-powered home into the 21st century. Its bluestone frontage turns heads and still holds the weight of its 120 years and its floorplan is flexible offering 3 bedrooms plus study or else an extra formal lounge, bending to the changing needs of families, sun-seeking downsizers and fast-paced professionals alike. Lofty ceilings, prominent architraves, ornate fireplaces and time-polished timber boards are charming proof this kind of character can't be manufactured. But an inspired extension certainly can… Flowing in one seamless sweep, open-plan living settles into its daily rhythm at a sky-lit, stone-topped kitchen with expansive island/breakfast bar, Smeg and Miele appliances, and deep storage. Extensive glazing folds away to the rear and the tiled, covered patio becomes the natural spillover, steps from a rain-sensored Vergola that adjusts in step with the sky, ready to woo a crowd, hail or shine. And then the cherry - prized rear lane access to a secure double garage that will swallow not just the bikes, boards and sand buckets - but the boat too. (there's heaps of built in storage too). Beyond this quiet, restful home; the summers of your life ensue, a barefooted stroll from Glenelg's sands, Wigley Reserve, the waterside trails of 'The Pat' and Jetty Road's gems.
