A Great Family Home in a Great Location.
This wonderful family home is surrounded by a whole host of facilities and amenities that make this property a great choice to raise the family. If you've got school age children there's primary and secondary schools just moments away and it comes without the challenge of contending with busy main road traffic. For recreation, how can you go past the beautiful local sandy beach in summer? It's just 1 KM away due west, which will take you right onto Henley jetty for a spot of fishing. If you prefer you've got Torrens Linear Reserve just 2 KM's away in either a southerly or easterly direction, just great for that bike ride to the city. Shopping is not far away either - you're surrounded by it on Tapley's Hill Road, Henley Beach Road, and on The Esplanade. And of course, you've got the magnificent dining and entertaining precinct of Henley Square. This location has got the lot.
Then again, you don't have to go far for entertainment. A fabulous fully enclosed heated swimming pool will provide great fun for the kids and guests for many months a year. Take a break from swimming and test your skills with the 'giant' outdoor chess set.
The home itself, whilst modest in appearance is in excellent condition and lends itself for inexpensive sprucing up, just waiting to be transformed into a beachside 'resort'. Built in 1966 it comprises some 7 main rooms, all of generous proportions. It includes a heated lounge and dining room off the entry which is adjacent to the kitchen. The lounge/dine areas are also serviced by ceiling fans. While the kitchen is original it's in good condition and its neutral colours suit the residence well. A dishwasher is included in the sale. 3 roomy bedrooms along the northern face of the home all feature built-in robes, shutters and ceiling fans, and are conveniently located to the full-size bathroom. The area adjacent the kitchen has since been enclosed offering a very practical sunroom which overlooks the pool and outdoor entertaining area. The home also features a ducted reverse-cycle airconditioning system for all-year climate control and comfort, while a solar hot-water system provides economy and environmental friendliness. Window shutters, smoke detectors and security screens are featured throughout the home.
The highlight of the home is the magnificent swimming pool which is fully enclosed in a 'Florida Room' to protect the pool from the elements and insects. A secure fencing system should also provide peace of mind. The pool is maintained by a salt chlorinator and sand filter while the pool equipment which is included in the sale includes a creepy crawly and pool cover. Solar heating for the pool provides for low cost extended swimming.
Other outdoor improvements include extensive paving (don't forget the chess board), garden shed, lock-up garage, and undercover parking for 4 cars. All this on 691 sq m of magnificently located real estate.
Don't miss this opportunity to acquire a family home that is ready to move into and offers the potential to further upgrade if you choose. This represents great value buying for the astute purchaser.
