39 Marlborough Rd, Westbourne Park SA 5041

The remote-gated entrance opens to a long gravel driveway with access through to the backyard, double carport and shed. Established gardens all around create a secluded and peaceful setting, while the wide front verandah provides a relaxing place to sit in the morning sun.

Inside, the original Bungalow proportions make an immediate impression. High ceilings, open fireplaces and substantial rooms give the home presence, yet it remains relaxed and welcoming. The layout is practical too, with the bedrooms placed away from the main living spaces and two independent living areas providing flexibility for different ages and stages.

All three bedrooms are very spacious. The main bedroom includes an open fireplace, a walk-through robe and a light-filled ensuite with a walk-in shower and underfloor heating. The second bedroom also features an open fireplace and has plenty of room for a sitting or study area - ideal for a teenager or young adult wanting a retreat of their own. The third bedroom comfortably accommodates a queen bed, desk, lounge and additional storage.

The main bathroom is equally well proportioned, with high ceilings, a skylight, freestanding bath, a large open shower alcove and vanity. At the centre of the home, the second living room has dual entry points and another open fire. It can be closed away as a formal lounge-retreat, TV-theatre room or guest space when needed and offers the potential for a fourth bedroom if required.

The kitchen forms the link between the original home and the rear living extension. Two broad openings keep it connected to the open plan family room while allowing each space to retain its own purpose - it's nice to have the kitchen separate when it needs to be. There is a gas cooktop, raised oven and microwave, dishwasher, excellent bench space and casual seating for a few stools. The outlook across the living area to the backyard makes it easy to stay connected with children at play. A walk-in pantry is home to the coffee machine and provides extra storage, with scope to adapt the space over time - perhaps to be a true a Butler's Pantry or Wine Cellar!

The main living area delivers the space a family hopes to find. High raked ceilings create volume, while a wall of north-facing windows brings in winter sun and keeps the garden present throughout the day. Engineered timber flooring adds warmth, there is room for a large table setting and any lounge configuration around the built-in gas fire, without either area feeling crowded - this is where everyday family life will naturally come together and where entertaining family & friends will be a celebration.

And it is the backyard environment that sets this property apart with room to move on 950sqm! Established greenery creates privacy, ornamental trees bring seasonal colour and the open lawn gives children and pets space to enjoy. The cubby house is ready for play, while the solar-heated, fully tiled in-ground pool is secure behind glass panel fencing with room for poolside lounging.

The adjacent double carport has also been used as a second covered entertaining area - a practical option beside the pool, while the long driveway provides ample off-street parking. There is further opportunity for covered parking along the side of the home. Great potential!

Behind the carport, a large modern shed provides space for garden equipment, storage, a workbench or hobbies. Ducted and zoned reverse-cycle air conditioning keeps the home comfortable throughout the year, and the laundry functions as a useful utility or mudroom with additional storage and access to the deck and side garden.

The sought after and tightly held position completes the picture. The local primary school is in a neighbouring street, while Cabra College, Walford, Mercedes College and Scotch College are among the well-regarded schooling options within easy reach. Enjoy a weekend walk through iconic Victoria Avenue to Heywood Park and on to Hyde Park Hotel, cafs, restaurants and the cosmopolitan life of King William Road. Mitcham Square, its cinema precinct and the Unley Park train station are also conveniently close.

This is a home where character, space and everyday comfort come together naturally - a beautiful Bungalow with generous family accommodation, a private north-facing garden and the freedom that comes with having room to move, inside & out! It is ready to enjoy now and at the same time will provide the unique opportunity to introduce your own ideas and make it entirely your own.
