A corner beauty with substance, soul and the sweetest lifestyle

Auction Sat, 16th Aug - 11am (usp) Commanding attention from its sweeping corner plot, this C1915 character beauty swaps fleeting trends for a timeless family home that steps firmly into the 21st century - and the best summers of your life - at its extended rear. Beyond its return verandah and manicured front garden, a wide hallway pulls you in and sets the tone; polished pine floorboards, decorative cornices, prominent wainscoting and soaring ceilings all enduring reminders that "they don't make them like this anymore". The formal lounge, anchored by a big bay window framed in glowing leadlight, carves out a dignified, peaceful reprieve. A ceiling dome draws the eye up; an ornate fireplace invites you to settle in. Could it be a fourth bedroom? You bet it could. Each bedroom sits within the home's well-considered floor plan, balancing privacy with accessibility. The main suite is cleverly zoned, with generous robes and a private ensuite. The other bedrooms offer heritage features - a fireplace here, a pair of walk-ins there - while remaining adaptable for growing families or work-from-home life. Suddenly, the original home gives way to that light-filled open-plan addition. Its kitchen - featuring a sleek monochrome palette, granite benchtops, walk-in pantry and a 900mm Falcon Professional + dual fuel cooker - the focal point. Café doors fold back in full, blurring the boundary between inside and out. The skillion-roofed timber deck takes over. This is where summer lives: among mature hedging and citrus trees, cricket-ready lawns and your very own heated pool. Positioned close to Highgate Primary and Unley High Schools, Walford Anglican School for Girls, Mercedes, Mitcham Girls High School, Scotch and Concordia Colleges, this home speaks fluent convenience. With Mitcham Village just minutes away - for cinema nights, coffee catch-ups and last-minute groceries - and public transport ready to take you almost anywhere else, this is where life settles into one very sweet rhythm.
